Good morning. Here’s the latest from around the lacrosse world:
1. Team Apuzzo and Team Moreno were winners again on Thursday night.
Week 2 of Athletes Unlimited kicked off last night at USA Lacrosse headquarters, where Sam Apuzzo dropped five points to lead her team to the 8-7 win over Team Read.
In the nightcap, Charlotte North’s four goals were enough to lead Team Moreno to the 9-5 win over Team Colson.
