OBU is participating in Lace Up With LAX. This lacrosse game involves lacrosse players, coaches, spectators and the community donating and bringing new pairs of shoes for children who are homeless to the game. The mission of this national nonprofit organization is to define the legacy of our players off the field by helping end homelessness one step at a time. Fans are encouraged to bring out new shoes to the game to help support this charity.
