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

1. Arizona State had itself a weekend.

The Sun Devils kicked it off with a 20-9 upset victory over conference foe USC — the program’s first win over a ranked team in school history. Arizona State followed it up with a 19-14 victory over UC Davis on Sunday.

Check out the Friday wrap on the Sun Devils’ upset win.

2. Molly Garrett was amazing, but Penn State prevailed.

Two days after Michigan topped Penn State, the two teams met again at Panzer Stadium. The Nittany Lions and Wolverines battled back-and-forth throughout Sunday’s game, until this shot from Molly Garrett sent the game to overtime.

Maria Auth scored in traffic in overtime to give Penn State a series split and a crucial 13-12 Big Ten victory.

Also on Sunday, Virginia’s Charlie Campbell had 11 saves to lead the Cavaliers to the 14-11 win and series split over Duke.
