Can you believe it, fam? The season starts tomorrow. WE MADE IT! Thanks for sticking with us! We greatly appreciate your support and kind words! We hope you enjoyed everything so far. Make sure to follow the open thread tomorrow as we kick things off on Saturday.
*Eri_B slides down large pile of money*
This country deserves a lit college lacrosse season ... and we're going to give it to them. Whenever there's a big game on TV, swarm your local eateries & hydration stations, and (POLITELY) inform the proprietors that their establishment watches college lacrosse now. This is our Nation.
*Troops pour gasoline on the aforementioned large pile of money. Eri_B lights match.*
