Tucker Out Lymphoma night in Buffalo, New York is a big deal. It’s always an emotional night as we remember the life and legacy of Tucker Williams. The son of former Buffalo Bandit and current Las Vegas head coach, Shawn Williams, Tucker was only eight years old when he lost his battle with Burkitt’s Lymphoma. It’s been nine years since his tragic death, but the lacrosse community will always remember…

The first installment in 2024 of the I-90 rivalry between the Buffalo Bandits and Rochester Knighthawks was a banger. These games always tend to be high intensity and a split crowd as Buffalo fans travel well. A snowstorm in the Buffalo area did affect some of the travellers, but there still was a sea of orange and black at Blue Cross Arena. This contest was as back-and-forth as it gets…

Week 3 action came to you from the Nassau Coliseum in Uniondale, New York, as the Halifax Thunderbirds visited the New York Riptide. There is no polite way to put it, this game was ugly. The Thunderbirds walked into New York and put a beating on them. New York really never came close in a game that had plenty of goals, and even more physicality. After a combined 65 penalty…
