This is the best lacrosse festival the state of Florida has to offer,” Galloway added. “We look forward to having the Florida community out to enjoy the festivities and help support all that Nemours has done for the city of Jacksonville!” Among the pro players, fans will have the opportunity to see four-time Major League Lacrosse All-Star and three-time All-America Joel White, All-Star and three-time All-America Randy Staats, two-time All-Star and 2014 national champion and Most Outstanding Player Jordan Wolf, and All-America and 2015 ESPY-nominated for Best Play Blaze Riorden.
