Obviously, the thoughts & prayers of the entire lacrosse cmmunity go out to this man's family & friends in this difficult time.

This incident again goes to highlight the importance of defibrillators at sporting events.

I was in attendance at the game. Wasn't looking when it happened (forgive me I was gettin a beer). Thought at first he was hit by a ball. God Bless him and his family and friends at this time!

Just wanted to send a THANK YOU to the refs who are not wearing equipment, are always in the mix, and sometimes get hurt. Thanks for the bravery of stepping on a field, unprotected, with a bunch of hackers and slashers wearing armor throwing a solid rubber ball over 70mph!
