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

1. US Lacrosse is celebrating Native American Heritage Month with a series of stories.

We kicked off our celebration of the month with a candid conversation with Lyle Thompson, as told to Matt Hamilton. The story — entirely in Thompson’s own words — touches upon several topics, including sovereignty, misappropriation and so much more.

It’s a must-read conversation. But don’t take our word for it. Take the lacrosse community’s.

This is an incredibly powerful read https://t.co/hWnPoCd04G
