Boca Raton—The Boston Cannons traveled to south Florida this weekend for their first-ever meeting with the Florida Launch. The Cannons won’t be very eager to come back after getting trounced 23-17 by a much better Florida Launch group tonight.

The path for the Rochester Rattlers organization has not been typical. One of Major League Lacrosse’s original franchises, the team has enjoyed its fair of good seasons and its fair share of bad seasons. Rochester has not made the playoffs since 2008 when the Rattlers won their only MLL Championship. The Rochester franchise even moved north of the border for the 2009 and 2010 seasons until the old Chicago Machine…
