Boston, MA – (February 11, 2019) – Major League Lacrosse (MLL) announced today details around draft prospect and Towson faceoff specialist, Alex Woodall.
Towson University is a public university in Towson, Maryland. The Tigers men’s lacrosse team was founded in 1958. The Tigers were a Division II team from 1974-1979.

Preseason active rosters in MLL feature Tigers such as Jack Adams (Chesapeake Bayhawks) and Sid Ewell (Florida Launch).
Alex Woodall is likely to join the ranks of these Tiger standouts. Woodall is from Annapolis, MD, where he attended St. Mary’s High School. Woodall started his college career at High Point University, but opted to move back to his home state of Maryland and transfer to Towson University his sophomore year.
