About The Brooklyn Crescents:
Eight years ago six people (L’Quentus Thomas, Susan Murray, Kassim Howell, Jessica O’Brien, Dan Sheff, and Wes Jackson) dedicated to youth development and the game of lacrosse came together to continue the mission of bringing lacrosse, then a historically suburban sport, to Brooklyn.
The group had worked with the legendary Kevin Graham of The Brooklyn Admirals who for years worked to use the sport to empower the community. After Mr. Graham’s passing, the founders, still committed to that original mission, launched the Crescents.
Now the board, consisting of the six founders and led by President, Patrick Drennan and Director of Lacrosse Operations, Dan Casey, have grown a team of 30 kids into a robust organization of 300 players. Our alumni have gone on to enroll and play at some of the nation’s leading high schools and boarding schools as well as the collegiate level.
The Brooklyn Crescents Lacrosse Club is a fully volunteer run and 501(C) (3) non-profit organization.
The Crescent Athletic Club was a leading Brooklyn sports club, back in the late 1800s & first half of the 1900s, fielding football, hockey & lacrosse teams. Hence the adoption of the Crescents name.
The future of The Crescents, our beloved sport, our players and their families is as bright as ever.
