Good morning. Here’s the latest from around the lacrosse world:

1. The NCAA Division I Women’s Final Four is set.

Let’s start with the story of the day.

Denver women’s lacrosse used a heroic defensive effort to take down the defending national champions, North Carolina, 5-4 at Chapel Hill. The win clinched the Pioneers’ first trip to the final four in school history, and served as No. 300 for coach Liza Kelly.

The Pioneers held the Tar Heels scoreless for the final 35 minutes. Yes, you read that correctly.
