πŸ’£ Connor Buczek retires from pro lacrosse

The 4-time All-Star midfielder has announced his retirement from pro lacrosse. The Ohio native ranks 10th all-time in career 2-point goals.

Buczek is the head coach at his alma mater, Cornell University. (Ever heard of it?) His Big Red squad is currently ranked 6th in the country.

Our favorite Buczek moment of all-time: In 2019 after dislocating his shoulder and popping it back into place, Buczek stepped back on the field and buried a 2-point goal.
