Good morning. Here's the latest from the lacrosse world:

1. Jenny Levy joined the “Laughter Permitted” podcast with Julie Foudy.

Foudy, a two-time Olympic gold medalist with the U.S. women’s soccer team, hosts the ESPN podcast and spoke with Levy about coaching culture, leadership and pickleball — one of Levy’s passions outside of coaching.

2. Rider has tabbed Evan Mager as its inaugural women’s lacrosse coach.

Mager had success at FDU-Florham, going 34-7 in his three years there, but with a Division I job available, he decided to build a new program from scratch. Rider will begin competition in the spring of 2024.

3. Princeton men’s lacrosse has gone global.

The Tigers are in Andorra, Spain, building chemistry and experiencing a different culture before embarking on the 2023 season. Jerry Price has been detailing the trek.

Last season, Princeton made it to championship weekend before falling to eventual national champion Maryland. What can the Tigers do for an encore?

Lacrosse Bucket’s Tanner Demling breaks down the Tigers.

4. Elsewhere in the Ivy League, Dartmouth kicked off fall ball against Team Scotland.

For now, you’ll have to settle for a few photos from the action. Justin Lafleur will have more on the game and the experience early next week.
