The Virginia men’s lacrosse team hoisted the NCAA trophy a little over one week ago after the Cavaliers withstood a late push from Maryland to hold on to a 17-16 victory. It was the seventh NCAA title in program history, and for the first time, lacrosse went back-to-back after the Hoos won it all in 2019.
The Cavaliers got a huge tournament out of redshirt first year Connor Shellenberger. The multi-faceted player earned the title of tournament Most Outstanding Player for his 14 goals and 10 assists. He is just the second rookie to win MOP of the NCAA tournament, joining Virginia’s Connor Gill (1999). That’s it. That’s the list.

Westpac is in the process of making smartphone-based identity verification an option for customers of all its banking brands, following a successful trial with St.George Bank.
The group is using digital identity verification technology from Sydney-headquartered OCR Labs, which captures images of a physical identity document and then still images and video of the person, and matches them.
Such technology is increasingly being used in the financial services sector worldwide to verify the identity of people remotely, meaning they no longer need to attend a branch or other physical space to perform a 100-point identity check.

Record rains and a bumper crop were supposed to bring farmers relief, but it also attracted millions of rodents.
The Whiteley family farm in Warren, 500 kilometres from Sydney, has been hit hard over the last few years, but last summer saw a harvest to make up for the hardship.
