An inspiration passes away

Longtime Middlebury College lacrosse field manager Peter Kohn passed away this morning after suffering a heart attack last Saturday while on a fishing trip near his home in Cape May, N.J.

Mr. Kohn, a former field manager at the Park School, suffered from a mild form of autism, but was a beloved member of the lacrosse community. I didn't know Mr. Kohn, so here are links to two publications that have much deeper perspective on Mr. Kohn's impact on the sport.
