Good morning. Here’s the latest from around the lacrosse world:
1. College lacrosse is back on campus. We’ve included a litany of events — including women’s lacrosse play days this weekend at Columbia and Stony Brook — in a composite fall ball schedule for fans to follow.
2. Caroline Haussermann, a National Lacrosse Hall of Famer and trailblazer for the women’s game, died Aug. 20 in Williamsburg, Va. She was 92. Haussermann, also a member of the USA Field Hockey Hall of Fame, was the first executive director of the United States Women’s Lacrosse Association. As an athlete, she played both squash and field hockey internationally.
3. Rich Kilgour and John Tavares, Buffalo Bandits legends whose jersey numbers are next to each other in the rafters of KeyBank Center, will stand together behind the Bandits bench as co-head coaches next season.
4. Major League Lacrosse will reportedly move the start of its season to June starting in 2019, according to a tweet by US Lacrosse Magazine contributor Marisa Ingemi, thus eliminating much of the overlap that previously prevented National Lacrosse League players from joining MLL teams until midseason.
