too much stuff. remove the small exercises
This routine would be for me...I've been lifting a little over a year (and running for around 3), I'm 17 and would say that I have above average genetics (meaning good recovery ability). The goal is to be stronger (not only in the big 3), faster, more powerful and keep my endurance.
Here's something I drew out. Some of the workouts may be too long and if someone could make a good suggestion on what to cut I'd appreciate it. I also wanted to put hang cleans in there somewhere but can't find a good place. All other tips appreciated.

I get exhausted just looking at that routine.
Well, it's not quite as much as it previously seemed like. I had tabbed some stuff over to go under categories and it didn't tab over. Ex:
Bench Move - 3 x 3-5 (Switch exercise whenever CNS is doing poorly – should be roughly once every 3 weeks)
*Decline Bench
*Wide-Grip Bench
*"Half-Bench"
*Bench with Chains
that's 1 exercise...I would switch up b/t one of those 4.
same goes with the 3 things under "curl move" ...
Still, there is probably some stuff I could throw out and maybe something I need to add in. I'm having some trouble picking out the small stuff as I've tried to use compounds.

I decided to not do Cross Country b/c I feel it's gonna mess up my lifts too much.
I'm training for high school LaCrosse. Ideally (and it will be tough) I will get all-state or atleast be able to play in college. It's just North Carolina and it's not THAT big down here, but to get All State would be a big accomplishment. I play midfield and basically I just want to be able run people over and be the fastest guy on the field (as far as physical ability goes).
Long-term, my goal is to take my body to the limits in terms of strength, speed, lung capacity and endurance (both muscle and normal endurance/speed) without juicing .. absolutely no offense to those that do.
The season starts in the early Spring.
Thanks a bunch, and congrats IronLion.

So from what I see the elements of your routine are not bad, I would just work on consolidating them.
Try to break your weights into a four day split, running no more than 3 times a week to start. Also try to do your running after your leg workouts. This should leave you with two full days of rest which you will need.
these are the elements you will want to target with your training, try to pick exercises that will have the most benefit in the most catagories:
1. Speed
2. Power
3. Balance
4. Flexability
5. Endurance/Capacity
6. LBM/Hypertrophy
So when designing a split you would see a full power clean as a very important movement for the simple fact that it will work all of the key components well. Chest flye or a bicep curl would rate very low on the scale of importance. Try to rework a split with these components in mind.
