Good morning. Here's the latest from the lacrosse world:
1. The making of Mike-V-P
Mike-V-P does most of his talking with his play on the field, but there are more reasons Michael Ehrhardt’s teammates respect him so much. Matt DaSilva with our November cover story for USA Lacrosse Magazine.
2. Protecting the Gators.
Star goalie Sarah Reznick is back, but Florida has some holes to fill on its defensive unit in 2023.
3. Get ready for a lax celebration.
Year two of National Celebrate Lacrosse Week includes more than 60 Pick Up & Play clinics across the country — clinics aimed specifically at introducing players to the sport for the first time.
There are more ways than one to #CelebrateLacrosse next week.
