Canadian Lacrosse Players Contribute Unique Skillset

UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. - Most people know Canada as the home to ice hockey. However,Canada is also home to the arguably equally as intense sport of box lacrosse. With four PennState men's lacrosse (7-5, 1-2 Big Ten) players hailing from Canada, their experience with box lacrosse has helped them build a different skillset than their American teammates.

Senior attacker TJ Sanders, junior midfielder Dan Craig, sophomore midfielder Chris Young, and freshman midfielder Dylan Foulds all have experience playing the physical sport of box lacrosse.

"I started playing field lacrosse when I was 14 but have played box since I was about five," said Foulds.
