There will be snow on the ground somewhere when the 2016 lacrosse season gets started this weekend, but that hasn't stopped college coaches from starting in early February year after year.
With the start of the season in mind, we take a look at 16 key storylines for the 2016 season.
11. Syracuse must find offense
Hopkins upset Syracuse in the NCAA quarterfinals. The Orange don't have the usual supply of marquee offensive talent, outside of attackman Dylan Donahue, having lost five of their top six scorers.
They will be stout and stingy on defense, in the cage and facing-off. Defender Brandon Mullins is a ball hawk who can erase the opponent's top playmaker. Jay McDermott returns as his sidekick. Faceoff ace Ben Williams tilts the field in Syracuse's favor. Goalie Warren Hill has waited patiently, and has the characteristics of a top stopper.
Coach John Desko will need time to find the winning mix on offense.
