The Marquette men’s lacrosse program made two major announcements late Tuesday morning. One was that junior midfielder Tanner Thomson will redshirt the upcoming season.

“Tanner faced a tough injury in the fall semester and has recently decided to change career paths academically,” Marquette head coach Joe Amplo said in a statement. “After thoughtful deliberation with him, his family and the staff we have decided that what is best for Tanner in the long run is for him to redshirt this season. While we will miss his presence on game day, I am thankful that we will have his leadership at practice to mentor a talented but young offensive unit.
