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

1. The Big Ten became the first of the Power 5 conferences in NCAA Division I athletics to postpone its fall sports seasons, and the Pac-12 followed soon thereafter. The leagues said they will explore playing fall sports, including football, in the spring, a move that could have major impacts on the lacrosse programs in those leagues — access to facilities, television exposure, support staff availability — among them.

2. Former U.S. team player, NCAA champion coach and National Lacrosse Hall of Famer Tina Sloan Green is a prime example of what can happen when someone is given an opportunity.

3. Former Maryland player Jon Garino, a key member of the Terps' 2017 NCAA championship team, had surgery for testicular cancer on Monday.

4. Major League Lacrosse has announced the finalists for its end of year awards. The winners will be announced starting today via Instagram Live.

5. Zed Williams was the MVP of the Premier Lacrosse League Championship Series. The finalists and winners for the other PLL award winners will be announced later this week, along with an all-tournament team.
