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

1. All eyes were on World Lacrosse Super Sixes this weekend.

The exhibition event at USA Lacrosse featured the preeminent lacrosse-playing nations —Canada, the Haudenosaunee Confederacy and the United States — competing for the first time in the new World Lacrosse Sixes discipline.

Played at a frenetic pace, the 12 games (men and women) saw a combined 363 goals in 385 minutes of play. Records were identical on both sides, with the Canada and U.S. men and women each finishing 3-1. The Haudenosaunee were winless.
