Maybe annoying little brothers and trips to the dentist aren’t so bad, after all. Baylee Mee’s younger brother, Hunter, insisted on tagging along when Baylee had her wisdom teeth removed last April. Not for moral support. He wanted to videotape her and her reactions to the procedure. His intuition paid off.
Level Up: Rutgers shared some shots of the work being done on their Rodkin Center.
From Syracuse.com: Syracuse lacrosse icon Kevin Donahue has left the program.
For the first time in 32 seasons, Kevin Donahue will not be on the sidelines of the Syracuse lacrosse team this spring. Donahue confirmed on Tuesday that he has left his new role as a volunteer assistant coach for the team, a job he held for only a few months.
Syracuse midfielder Brendan Curry is pointing toward a career similar to that of his father, Todd, a three-time All-American with the Orange.
LET’S GOOOOOO!
A friendly reminder there's a college lacrosse scrimmage happening at the top of the hour. The first of the year.

US Lacrosse Magazine with a preview of UMass.
Massachusetts enjoys an enviable amount of offensive continuity from a team that landed the No. 1 seed in the Colonial Athletic Association tournament. The Minutemen can certainly put it to use as they fill two huge holes on defense.
Back to work!!

When the drill runs long make sure your teammate isn’t mic’d before you share your 2 cents. #coachisalwayslistening # ♂️ pic.twitter.com/Ig9nujwL1y
In 2019, the core group of attackmen was the lifeblood of Penn State’s NCAA Tournament run. If the Nittany Lions are to live up to the exorbitant expectations that the new campaign brings, expect the approach to be the same. Penn State will be led by a battle-tested trio of attackmen that will be eyeing a national title as each enters his final season in blue and white.
Some MLL news: The Atlanta Blaze are relocating to Philadelphia, sources tell @College_Crosse. Philly will have their first MLL team since the Barrage’s last season in 2008.

The New Yorker did a piece on New Jersey’s @NJGov Twitter account.
The @NJGov account turns Garden State trivia into fire tweets with a mix of millennial nostalgia and Gen Z slang.
