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

1. The U.S. claimed its fifth straight bronze medal at the World Indoor Lacrosse Championship, but this didn’t feel like just another bronze. From our November print edition, Inside the building process for the U.S. men’s indoor lacrosse program.

2. This time it counts. Loyola's Tewaaraton winner Pat Spencer hits the hardwood for his first regular season game with the Northwestern men's basketball team when the Wildcats host Merrimack tonight.

Pat Spencer blew up in his Northwestern hoops debut. #BestofLax voting continues and new @USLacrosse boys youth rules in #DialedIn. https://t.co/oKTQyzgric pic.twitter.com/hwZ6qfr5Hk

3. Looking to take advantage of the number of visitors to Las Vegas over Super Bowl Weekend, the San Diego Seals will host the Colorado Mammoth in an NLL game in Vegas that Saturday. As part of the weekend, Seals’ season ticket holders will be given free hotel rooms in Las Vegas.

Today, @SealsLax and @NLL announced a Super Bowl weekend game in Las Vegas as the league eyes the city for potential expansion. I chatted with both parties today to see what it's all about. - @frntofficesport - https://t.co/E4CBJ3yTDC

4. From Athletic Republic, a smarter way to get stronger.

5. Black Friday will take on new meaning this year for the alumni of the Ridley and Springfield boys’ lacrosse programs in Southeastern Pennsylvania. More than 100 alums — including Team USA alumni Greg Gurenlian, Brett Moyer and Kyle Sweeney — will play a game the day after Thanksgiving to raise funds for the HEADstrong Foundation.

WHAT WE’RE READING

• The way you praise young athletes matters.

• Former Montana goalie Drew Moesel, an All-American at the MCLA level, now finds solace in paragliding. His younger brother, Will, died earlier this year from an asthma attack. The two had attended the NCAA Men’s Lacrosse Championship in Philadelphia earlier that day.

• Eastern Michigan’s announcement of a new women’s lacrosse program comes at a time when the school is still facing a Title IX lawsuit for dropping its softball program.

• Women’s lacrosse coach John Sung recaps the fall season at Virginia Tech.

• Former Cal captain Caroline Corzel has been named as an assistant women’s lacrosse coach at Quinnipiac.

WHAT WE’RE WATCHING

The USA women’s lacrosse team is excited to head back to the IWLCA President’s Cup.

A little #TBT to last year’s @IWLCA President’s Cup. We can’t wait to be back in two weeks!  Who else will be there?@mariemccool4 @Liz_Hogan02 pic.twitter.com/xEt7qYiAF0

Adam Ghitelman’s latest video find is some footage of Tony Resch, one of the nicest people you’ll meet in the sport…or anywhere. But he’s also a fierce competitor.

#34 Tony Resch (@PLLArchers) was a Physical Presence & Enforcer on D for @NLLwings.

Coach Resch did the dirty work for his team, Played Tough, and always had his teammates’ back.

You rock, Coach. https://t.co/1k2vBq2Knx pic.twitter.com/hTDmSbQleq
