Throughout his distinguished career as the builder and leader of US Lacrosse, Steve
Stenersen has been guided by an unwavering commitment to always do what is in the
best interest of the game and those who are fortunate enough to play it.
With the support of his Board of Directors and the talented team he leads at US Lacrosse,
Steve has built a National Governing Body that is a model for American sport. He
