No turf shoes crushes our hearts, but Warrior still released turf shoes this season so we’re not breaking out in cold sweats just yet. We believe they understand how important “turf dogs” are to the lacrosse community.

We just hope Princeton can stay healthy this season…and that top players stop transferring…and that top players play like top players IL Blog told us they would be…and that their Warrior uniforms are befitting an Ivy League school.

Several more photos of the home and cleats on Warrior’s FB page.

If Warrior wants to make outlandish custom cleats for Indiana, sign us up. The world is waiting for custom Burn cleats a la Nike id. The world is also waiting for the 2012 glove designer.

Rough day for Baltimore fans.
