History of Harvest

On the ride home from college for Christmas break in 2010, Grant Catalino (Maryland) with his brother Michael (Duke) considered how they could help pass on their appreciation of lacrosse and the opportunities it provided them, to others in their hometown and in Rochester, NY.

And so the concept of Harvest Lacrosse was born. To have a “Harvest” of any sort, you start with a seed, add water and sunlight, and it grows. It requires attention to detail and basic necessities. This same concept applies to athletes; Start with a passion for the sport, add relationships, fundamentals & practice, and the individual develops.

Harvest Lacrosse was founded by Michael and Grant Catalino. Its' mission to serve, lead, and influence is designed to help kids incorporate academics, lacrosse and the core values of courage, character, and competence into their lives.
