Club

GP Select Delta Lacrosse Grosse Pointe North

Notre Dame Prep’s Kyle Beauregard made the Hotbeds All-Star game playing with 1763. His older brother(?) Brandon plays at Detroit, and Titans assistant coach Chris Kolon is a coach in the 1763 program.

Recruiting

Brother Rice sophomore attackman Jason Alessi has committed to Michigan. He was one of just a few underclassmen to get serious playing time for the Warriors this spring. His older brother, Matt, golfs at U-M.

Former lady Titans Emily Boissonneault and Corina Mahorn will continue their lacrosse careers with Team Canada.

Costello also sits down with Grand Valley’s Tim Murray to discuss the Lakers’ season.

Davenport will travel to Arizona State next spring during their inaugural season as an MCLA-1 squad.
