- In 1888, the O.R. & N Railroad finished a line between Riparia and LaCross. George Dawson and his wife built a shack constructed using leftover railroad ties. The town of “LaCrosse”, Washington had its first post office name changed to “Dunlor,” the name coming from the first three letters of “Dunphy” (an engineer on the railroad) and the last three from “Taylor”, the first postmaster. This was not a popular choice name. A copy of the official petition to adopt the name of “Dunlor” is dated August 14, 1889, and signed by Mr. Taylor. “LaCrosse” is marked out and “Dunlor” is written in. The application also showed the town population as 12 and a service area of 25 families. By 1896, Washington DC responded back on the application and had the name as LaCrosse.
- Lacrosse is a team sport of Native American origin played using a small rubber ball and a long-handled stick called a crosse or lacrosse stick. It is a contact sport which requires padding such as shoulder pads, gloves, helmets, elbow pads, and sometimes even rib guards. The head of the lacrosse stick is strung with loose mesh designed to catch and hold the lacrosse ball and can also be strung with hard mesh. There are many different styles like Canadian mesh, rocket pocket and normal mesh. Offensively, the objective of the game is to score by shooting the ball into an opponent's goal, using the lacrosse stick to catch, carry, and pass the ball to do so. Defensively, the objective is to keep the opposing team from scoring and to dispossess them of the ball through the use of stick checking
