This week, Neil sits down with author SL Price to talk about his new book, "The American Game: History and Hope in the Country of Lacrosse". Price digs into the contradictions of lacrosse, from its Indigenous roots and the Haudenosaunee fight for recognition to the sport’s messy culture and its push onto the Olympic stage.
The Run Out is a lacrosse podcast with sharp takes, real talk, and full coverage of the game.
