Cape Henlopen assistant lacrosse coach Mark D'Ambrogi directed the nationally known GameBreaker Lacrosse Camp at Cape Henlopen High School July 8-12, where 35 players between the age of 8-14 learned skills ranging from basic passing and catching to game strategy and team play.

"I'm impressed with all of our campers this summer," said Camp Director Mark D'Ambrogi. "They have played hard despite this heat."

The GameBreaker Lacrosse Camp is designed to give young athletes the opportunity to work hard and improve in a fun, positive atmosphere.

Assisting D'Ambrogi are former Cape goalie James Cook and present Vikings players Grant Gillian, Blake Mann and Nate Kataurakas.

"The players have all been great," said camp counselor James Cook. "You can see the improvement in their skills and the scrimmages have been intense."
