Running commercials right now is so gross. Just put a slate up saying the game is suspended.
Thoughts with Damar Hamlin and the entire Bills and Cincinnati teams.
Anyone, anytime, anywhere.

Yesterday was my first time shooting men's lacrosse with a mirrorless camera after using a DSLR for awhile.
I've never seen that much flex in a photo of a stick and wonder if it's something to do with the mirrorless or settings?

Four goals.
One assist.

Today I learned in men's lacrosse, if you have a first half timeout left, you can call a timeout at the end of halftime and it goes in as a first half timeout and not a second half timeout. 🤯🤯🤯
Our media relations students and staff were incredible all weekend for the

I can't say enough about them and I'm glad they too get to share in these moments.
You can't pour from an empty cup. Make sure to take care of YOUR mental health first and foremost.
I'm glad the stigma around mental health is lessening but there is lots more work to be done.
If you need help, ask.
If I have the math right (and it's suspect),
@Towson_MLAX
has a potential 3,432 possible uniform combinations for the 2019 season. (Thanks to

Absolutely gutted for all of our student-athletes, coaches, administrators and staff. It's the tough thing to do but ultimately it's the right thing to do.

Spallina's nine points (4g, 5a) are tied for the fourth-most by a
