It started, quite simply, with a random phone call.
Robert Russell, an active-duty military father of two, contacted Ronnie Morales to ask about the potential of facilitating a lacrosse clinic for kids in military families. Morales, the director of sport growth at USA Lacrosse, seemed to be the right person to call based on his job title.
Little did Russell know how right he was.

“I gave up a lot of goals,” Resch said as he laughed. “I loved it. I’ll put it on my resume.”
