Nation United’s mission is to promote diversity in lacrosse, a sport under-represented by minorities. The over 80% minority roster consists of student athletes from 20 different high schools across the state of Texas.

The tournament team includes five members of the class of 2021 who are committed to NCAA programs, including Joel Brusnahan (Marist College), Jordan Frank (Georgia Court University), Marc Mackey (Centenary College of Louisiana), Matthew Nunes (University of Virginia), and Donovan Rock (Air Force Academy).

“These young men are not only exceptional lacrosse student-athletes, but they are exceptional in character, background, and perspective, by virtue of their commitment to Nation United, our mission, and our message. That’s what makes Nation Ambassadors uniquely attractive to college coaches,” comments Nation United-Texas head coach and director, Mike Song.
