To get themselves in shape for next month's Lacrosse World Championships, the United States national men's team put on an exhibition at Soldiers' Field Saturday, trouncing an local all-star team.
The defending world champions displayed their international dominance with crisp passing, smooth steals and sensational defense passing to mesmerize the young collegians.
Moving on to more challenging opponents, the U.S. team will put its World title on the line playing in the World Championships in Toronto, Canada (July 17-25).
Following its final training in Horbork, NY, the U.S. laxmen will compete with Australia, England and Canada to hang on to its world-class title, which it won so dramatically in 1982, thrashing Australia 22-7.
The World Championship moves to Australia in 1990, across the globe to England in 1994, and then back to this hemisphere and this country in 1998.
