Connie Sutherland, MLUA Webmaster (appointment) for MLUA.org. Past Member at Large for MLUA.  I have been an official of women's lacrosse since the spring of 2014.  My daughter's love of the game soon became my inspiration for making a positive impact as an official. I've had the opportunity to travel to out-state tournaments; continue officiating College level play, and am currently officiating in Wisconsin and Michigan; as well as exploring officiating Box Lacrosse.
