Good morning. Here's the latest from the lacrosse world:

1. Cast your votes!

We’re continuing our #BestOfLax2022 campaign with voting for the Best Game of the year. North Carolina, which won the Best Comeback category, is in the running with two games from this past spring season.

Check out the details on each nominee here before voting in the poll below.

2. The “Fate of a Sport” documentary is coming to Hulu on Friday.

The film, which documents the early days of the Premier Lacrosse League and follows its co-founder, Paul Rabil, through the end of his playing career, originally lived on ESPN+.

3. Rachel Vallarelli is still inspiring.

Vallarelli signed a contract with the PBLA’s New England Chowderheads, making her the first female to sign with a professional men’s indoor team. In December 2020, she wrote for us and detailed her own inspirations and goals.

We reshared that story yesterday, and you can read it here.
