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

1A pair of head coaching vacancies were filled Tuesday.

George Mason announced the hiring of Kara Mupo as the fifth head coach in program history. Mupo was a two-time national champion at Northwestern and climbed the coaching ranks since starting out as an assistant at William & Mary in 2016. More here.

Amherst College officially named Rashad Devoe its next head men’s lacrosse coach after reports surfaced over the weekend that he would be hired. Devoe replaces Jon Thompson, who was fired following an incident in early March involving the use of a racial slur by members of the team.

More on Devoe here.
