You may not know it, but lacrosse has a professional league called the Premier Lacrosse League, which merged with Major League Lacrosse late last year. The PLL has been active since 2019 and quite a few Syracuse players feature in the league. Scott Ratliff, Sergio Salcido, Randy Staats, Joel White, John Galloway, and Matt Abbott are the former Orange players who are currently on a PLL roster.
Three more Syracuse players joined them on Sunday night, marking the first time that the Orange had players selected in the PLL Draft. Peter Dearth, Stephen Rehfuss, and Jamie Trimboli all heard their names called to join the highest level of lacrosse.
