Good morning. Here’s the latest from around the lacrosse world:
1. U.S. Men’s training camp brought PLL pros, national team veterans and college stars together for one star-studded weekend.
We caught up with John Danowski as he evaluates the 52-man roster for the next three events, in hopes to find the best 23 players for next summer’s world championship.
2. Duke women’s lacrosse is not happy with how 2022 ended.
The Blue Devils lost to North Carolina, Notre Dame and Maryland in the season’s final days, ultimately ending what was a successful campaign that included a win over Boston College. With a talented core returning, Duke is ready for another run.
