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

1. The relationship between the CAA and James Madison seems to be worsening.

JMU, reportedly on the cusp of joining the Sun Belt conference so it can play football at the FBS level, will be banned from CAA league championship play if the Dukes finalize the move, Mike Barber of Richmond.com reports. This is reportedly one of the league bylaws.

This means James Madison, a perennial CAA contender, would not be able to receive an AQ to the NCAA tournament this spring. It could still receive an at-large bid.

The possible move to the Sun Belt would leave the Dukes without a conference for lacrosse, at least until a fit is found.

3. The National Lacrosse League Players Association has opted out of its CBA.

The NLLPA had the right to opt out, with the deadline passing on Monday, Nov. 1. The opt out does not jeopardize the upcoming season, set to begin in just about a month on Dec. 3.

The league and the NLLPA have until next summer to iron out a new agreement.

WHAT WE’RE WATCHING

Minnesota’s ties to lacrosse are powerful.

“…Minnesota has such a tie to the game. The world’s oldest lacrosse stick is from Minnesota, that we know of. You can just tell when the players take the field that it’s coming from somewhere deep.”
