Snubs, Surprises, and Favorites

The PLL awards race is heating up 🔥, and the NLL is shaking up. What does it all mean?

Neil and Brandon dig into the moves, then pivot to the PLL awards race. From MVP to Rookie of the Year, Coach to Comeback, we break down the finalists, the cases for and against them, and what the voting says about how players are valued. We also look at how defensive play fits into the awards picture, the goalie race, and the big moves in the NLL offseason.


The Run Out is a lacrosse podcast with sharp takes, real talk, and full coverage of the game.
