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

1. Another Monday of rankings saw some major shakeups across NCAA lacrosse.

  • Division I Men: Both Princeton and Utah went from unranked to Top 20 after major upset wins against top 10 teams last week, and there’s a new No. 3 with Rutgers.

  • Division I Women: Nos. 3, 4 and 5 shuffled because of a few recent results, and two new teams — Colorado and Johns Hopkins — have entered the conversation.

  • Division II Men: The top 10 got mixed around but the teams remained the same. The big change comes at No. 19, where Lake Erie enters the mix as a result of two big wins.

  • Division II Women: There’s a new No. 1. After Le Moyne defeated former No. 1 Lindenwood, UIndy — last week’s No. 2 team — now owns the top spot.

  • Division III Men: The NESCAC’s return to lacrosse caused some considerable movement, and four new teams join the party in Gettysburg, Union, Ursinus and Amherst.

  • Division III Women: Former No. 2 Tufts spiraled down to No. 14 after losing to Colby, which went from No. 20 to No. 11 as a result of the biggest win of the Division III women’s season thus far.

2. Our high school preview is in full swing.

Last week, we released our Nike/USA Lacrosse High School National Preseason Top 25s. Now, we’re breaking things down by region.

The South, which is largely underway at this point, features two returning powers — Milton (Ga.) on the girls’ side and St. Andrew’s (Fla.) on the boys’ side — looking to continue their recent history of success.

3. National Lacrosse Hall of Fame coach Tom Hayes has died.

Hayes was a key figure in the growth of international lacrosse and the all-time winningest Rutgers men’s lacrosse coach. He died Monday at 82.
