Danny ➡️ Shane ➡️ Mitch
The number represents everything Turner was about when you talk to Danny - selflessness, leadership and perseverance. Danny passed the number on to his brother Shane, who then passed it on to a current member of the team who possessed all the same qualities. A tremendous honor to wear the #82 in our program.
(DT Update: he’s battling like crazy and we can’t wait to get him back to Cleveland to have him lead us out to Krenzler one more time! Please keep praying for him and keep him and his family in your thoughts.)

It has been 4 years since Turner passed. Every year we say this, but it still doesn't totally feel real. Every year that passes feels a little different. What we do know is that no matter how many years pass, the impact that Turner made on everyone who knew him is still there.

Feels like forever ago - @LibertyFlames is lucky to have you, Eddie! Keep doing your thing…just don’t wrap presents anytime soon (didn’t go so well last time!!)
It’s been 3 years since Turner passed. Each day it seems weirder that he is no longer with us. Each year feels a little different but not a day goes by that we don't still think and smile about Turner.
Everywhere he went, his positively infectious personality followed…
Now starts the major push to get our late friend @CuseMLAX John Zulberti into @USA_Lacrosse HOF 2022 class. 4X AA, 2X National Champ, 2X Attackmen of the year and coach of 1000’s of players. If you want Z in the HOF in 2022 call, write, RT, use social, tag and let them know.
When Steve Gleason was diagnosed with ALS in 2011, he set out to make video journals for his son in case he wasn’t around.
His son, Rivers, tells his dad how this has inspired him to be resilient.
