Update: April 18, 2025
On April 14, 2025, USA Lacrosse issued a consumer advisory (original advisory below) to let individuals know that there were two versions of the Gait Apex 2 available in the marketplace. Both versions used the same name, but only one had been approved by USA Lacrosse.
A pair of undefeated former champions -- Georgia (12-0) and UCLA (10-0) – remain 1-2 in this week’s WCLA Top 20 Division I ranking, but they better not look backwards because there’s several contenders coming on strong.
