2022 Lacrosse Season

Looks like one of my major gripes has been partially addressed. Reset of shot clock after a legit shot will be 60 seconds. Rules committee said this was the original intent, but technical & money issues made a for straight 80 second clock.  Even though 2022 is not a rules change year; the committee felt for the sake of "pace" and the original intent, the rule change will be implemented immediately. I think they are finally admitting the 80 sec. clock has NOT improved PACE; which I have complained about since shot clock day one. IMHO a 60/40 clock would be even better yet; but I'll take what they are giving at least.

I agree, would have liked to changed to 60/40  - 80 seconds is just outrageous!!!!
