Good morning. Here’s the latest from around the lacrosse world:

1. The Tewaaraton Award announced its Watch Lists on Thursday night during a charity fundraiser in New York. Albany's Connor Fields, a finalist last year, was included along with teammate TD Ierlan, but no freshmen were included in this early season release, including the Great Danes sensational Tehoka Nanticoke. There's a pretty good chance we'll see him when the next update comes out on March 22.

2. The March issue of US Lacrosse Magazine is now hitting our members' mailboxes. Check out a digital version of the magazine.

3. After a breakout freshman year at Northwestern in 2015 and a U19 world championship to boot, Selena Lasota slipped a notch in 2016 and then missed almost all of last season with an injury. She's back with a renewed passion for the game.
