National Signing Day, Le’Veon Bell, Veterans Day

The top high school lacrosse players in the world just took one step closer to their dreams. Wednesday was National Signing Day, where future collegiate student athletes sign the contract making it official!

The big news didn’t just contain itself to North America. Germany had their first athlete sign to go D1, with Per Olters going with Vermont. Thousands of others also made their commitments to academic institutions all over.

These are bright times for the sport and the game just keeps growing.
