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

1. Delaware has its man. Inside Lacrosse last night reported, and the university this morning announced an 11 a.m. press conference to confirm, that the Blue Hens will hire former Harvard assistant coach Ben DeLuca as their new head coach, replacing the recently retired Bob Shillinglaw.

Delaware is getting a veteran of the Division I coaching ranks. Prior to spending the last two years at Harvard, DeLuca served on John Danowski’s staff at Duke for two seasons. He landed at Duke after an 18-year affiliation with Cornell as a standout player and coach ended in controversy in November 2013. Following a final-four season and with a 37-11 three-year record atop his alma mater, the school dismissed him to conclude a turbulent fall in which it earlier canceled the Big Red’s fall playing schedule due to alcohol-related hazing.

With Cornell replacing Matt Kerwick with Peter Milliman on an interim basis, Michigan remains the lone big fish in the pool looking for a replacement coach.

2. The NCAA championships are just about here, and it’s the women’s turn for an A-Z Guide. Will Gillette Stadium give Boston College a home field advantage? That and more from Jeremy Fallis.

More from the women’s side: Megan Schneider previews the Navy-BC semifinal.

3. From the men’s side in Foxborough, Matt Hamilton takes a look at the Towson-Ohio State semifinal, a rematch of a frigid regular-season matchup in Towson won by the visiting Buckeyes.

4. The USILA yesterday announced its All-Americans for Division I, II and III, and the coaches that selected the honorees got brushback on some of their choices and omissions. Judging simply by Twitter, many questioned the selection of Notre Dame’s Sergio Perkovic over Princeton’s Zach Currier as a first-team defenseman.

Currier in 2017: 58pts,130GB,56%FO

Doug Shanahan for Hofstra in '01: 56pts,125GB,56%FO

Shanahan was 1st team all-American, won Tewaaraton

Perkovic making First Team AA over Zach Currier is one of the bigger jokes in a long time https://t.co/RAeSSCsWx0
