More from Indiana University. Campus is sick.

Some of the major athletic facilities on campus.

Assembly Hall

A monument to fundamental basketball.

Memorial Stadium

The team was practicing at an adjacent field while we were walking around.

The building to the right is the John Mellencamp Pavilion, yes, the John Mellencamp. We practice there from January to March.

More photos coming this week. Have to explore the space.

Two reminders that I am no longer in Pittsburgh.

What is Red Gold tomato ketchup?

This was Saturday’s nightmare.

The next meeting with Rec Sports occurs at 5:30 tonight. It is a “Club Coach & Advisor” workshop.

LXM Gloves Disappoint

All pink and all white.

Where have we seen this before? Pink gloves surfaced last year on the summer tournament circuit. White gloves have been a rain cloud over my head since the dawn of time.

Mac Daddy 3′s offer 5 zones of customization. Five! Not one. You’d think they’d take a risk on glove design considering the nature of their event.

Compare the essentially stock LXM gloves to these MLL editions.

Significant difference.

Having said that, they are an upgrade over the gloves from the Austin event which were stock gloves. Who knows what will happen October 16th in Jacksonville.

Maybe they’ll have custom uniforms by then because these aren’t cutting it at all.

Lacrosse Playground has more game photos. 3400 people in attendance.

More Illinois highlights

Italy highlights from Manchester

What happens at 0:39 is monstrous. Until you see what happens at 1:15 and 1:32.

Already on the field.

So jealous.
