About the Organizer: Reed Peterson is a 4
th generation Madisonian. He attended West High and the UW-Madison, both for undergraduate studies and for law school. In high school Reed played lacrosse with the UW Men’s Lacrosse Club. At the time there were no lacrosse teams at the youth or high school level. A couple years ago he got the lacrosse bug again after more than 25 years when his youngest son started playing. He coaches his son’s lacrosse team for the Verona Lacrosse Club and is an assistant coach for the UW Men’s Lacrosse Club. Last year he organized a lacrosse festival for teams at the 3/4 level, which brought together 10 teams from Wausau, Milwaukee, and Madison for a great day of lacrosse. In his spare time he runs his law practice and serves on the alumni board of his college fraternity.
