Before diving into the state of PLL faceoffs, Greg gives us a detailed history of the position, how the PLL redesigned the faceoff and the latest controversial rule changes in college lacrosse. Gurenlian explains the origin of the “stripe” instead of the standard “X” and how he and other faceoff athletes worked with the PLL Rules Committee and Tom Schreiber to redesign the draw. Amongst many things, the central goal was to eliminate cheating - a pervasive behavior that Greg reveals was even being taught by some top tier coaches.

In this explainer episode, Gurenlian tees up the audience to understand why the faceoff position is so important, how the rule changes sparked a quicker transition game and what to expect in the coming PLL Championship Series.
