About Us / History
OHSLA (Boys HS)
Worthington High School introduced the game of lacrosse to Central Ohio in 1970 under the guidance of the late John Galipault. Sr. Upper Arlington formed a club team in 1972. Other teams began to take shape in Cincinnati, Cleveland and Toledo areas over the next several years.
Beginning in 1989, what is now known as the Ohio High School Lacrosse Association (OHSLA) was created to provide guidance, a shared vision, and a forum for communications that will challenge, engage, and energize the men's game, its heritage and its future in the State of Ohio.
