<p>The Yale men's lacrosse team opens its 2008-09 schedule on Oct. 4 by
hosting the Iroquois Nationals in a 7 p.m. exhibition game at Reese
Stadium. The price of admission is $5.
</p>
<p>This will be the second straight fall that the Iroquois and
Bulldogs have played. Last October in Madison, Conn., attacker Tyler
Casertano '08 tallied four goals in a 12-6 Yale victory at the Surf
Club's Strong Field.
</p>
<p>The Iroquois Confederacy is credited with inventing the modern
game of lacrosse, playing it long before Europeans came to North
America. The modern international long-stick game was created by the
Iroquois. Iroquois tribes are the indigenous people of areas in what is
now New York State and the Canadian provinces of Ontario and Quebec.
Also known as the Six Nations, the Confederacy consists of the Cayuga,
Oneida, Onondaga, Mohawk, Seneca and Tuscarora tribes. The alliance
created the first United Nations in North America and maintains the
oldest continuously-operating government on the continent. In 1987,
Congress recognized the contributions of the Iroquois people to the
democratic principles of the U.S. Constitution.
