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

1. There were four Division I games Tuesday night, including a nail biter between No. 14 Delaware and Saint Joseph’s.

The Blue Hens improved to 3-0 despite the best efforts of St. Joe’s. Trailing 10-9, Delaware got the equalizer when Cam Acchione found Clay Miller with 1:28 left in the third quarter. Nick Jessen and Mark Bieda then scored eight minutes apart in the fourth quarter for a 12-10 lead.

Mac McLaughlin scored with 2:28 left for the Hawks, but Delaware hung on for a 12-11 win. More scores from Tuesday:

MEN’S LACROSSE

No. 14 Delaware 12, Saint Joseph’s 11
No. 16 Jacksonville 21, Mercer 12
Towson 13, Mount St. Mary’s 8

WOMEN’S LACROSSE

2. Patrick Daly and Meaghan Tyrrell are the USA Lacrosse Magazine Players of the Week.

Daly, a Villanova attackman, scored six goals — including the game-winner — in a 13-12 win over Penn State and shot 6-for-8 on goal. Tyrrell, a Syracuse attacker, had a 14-point weekend, as the Orange kickstarted the Kayla Treanor era with two wins.

More here on Daly, and here on Tyrrell.

3. The Premier Lacrosse League announced the inaugural class of the Professional Lacrosse Hall of Fame.

Eleven all-time greats were honored as part of the first class. See the full list here.

4. Defending Division III national champion RIT will have to wait one day longer to start its season.

Due to frigid weather in Rochester, Saturday’s season opener has been pushed to Sunday, the school announced.
