Major
Series Lacrosse has elected Doug Luey to serve as its interim
commissioner.
Luey has
dedicated much of his life to lacrosse and is currently the director
of high performance and international relations for the Canadian
Lacrosse Association. He was elected to the position by a unanimous
vote of the league's governors at a recent meeting.
While
he does not want to take on the position permanently, Luey is
committed to helping MSL set a plan in place to help the league and
all its teams thrive moving forward. He will manage the regular
duties of the commissioner, including all player movement, while also
heading the search for the right person to fill the role permanently.
"I look forward to working with Major Series Lacrosse governors in 2017 as Canada celebrates its 150th birthday and Canada's national summer sport celebrates the 150th year since the written rules of lacrosse were introduced," Luey says.
