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

1. Michael Sowers has withdrawn from Princeton in hopes to play next year.

Sowers, arguably the nation’s top player, told The Athletic’s Dana O’Neill that he withdrew from school so that he could return to Princeton without having to enroll in graduate school. The Ivy League does not allow graduate students to compete in athletics, so Sowers' decision is aimed at being eligible for 2021.

2. The transfer portal is active for lacrosse.

Monday, the NCAA Division I Council approved an extra year for all spring sports. With that announcement came an uptick in players entering the transfer portal. All-Americans Kerrigan Miller (USC) and Sammy Mueller (Virginia) have entered the portal, according to a source.

3. There will be no Tewaaraton Award given in 2020.

The Tewaaraton Foundation canceled this year's ceremony, but announced its final watch lists of the year. Check them out here.

4. Michelle Tumolo opened up about her identity in Overtime with Paul Carcaterra.

Tumolo joined Carcaterra for Season 3, Episode 7 of Overtime, which came out Tuesday. Listen now.
