What these numbers say about this list
None of the 10 JUCO men's lacrosse programs in New York publish an admit rate to the College Scorecard, which usually means open enrollment: apply and you are in, so the roster conversation with the coach is the real gate. School size spans 1,168 undergraduates at SUNY Herkimer County Community College to 10,630 at Nassau Community College, which changes campus life far more than the lacrosse does. The biggest single cluster is the Mid-State Athletic Conference with 4 of the 10 programs.
How to use this list
A target list works best when it spans levels. Pick a handful of programs where you would be one of the stronger recruits, a group where you fit the current roster, and a few reaches. Use the admit rate and SAT columns the same way: schools admitting above 70 percent with a test band at or below your score are academic safeties, and the single-digit schools are reaches no matter how good your film is.
