MLL: Cannons Battle Rattlers in Atlanta
Both the Boston Cannons and Rochester Rattlers have been team of disappointment in 2013. The Cannons are just two years removed from their championship run while the Rattlers barely missed the 2012 playoffs. Instead, Rochester is 2-3 and Boston is 1-4. Last week the Rattlers defeated the 0-5 Ohio Machine while the Cannons were blown out against the 5-0 Denver Outlaws. This game will be the first ever professional lacrosse…
NLL Draft Needs: Buffalo Bandits
Does an NLL team need the draft more than the Buffalo Bandits? Probably not, but the Bandits are left without a first rounder because of the Anthony Cosmo trade. The Bandits don’t pick until the second round, with the 10th overall pick. The Bandits can probably use defense, or goaltending but with Cosmo there they won’t invest into a goaltender yet. For now, defense is a need but there isn’t…
Bayhawks Veteran Squad Gets Better
Casey Powell will be in the lineup for the Chesapeake Bayhawks this week, but he’s not the only all star veteran coming out of retirement for the defending champions. Tim Goettelmann, known as the “monster”, was signed by the Bayhawks this week and will be active tomorrow against the New York Lizards, the team he played with for 11 years. With the Lizards, Goettelmann scored 238 goals, the most all…
Why Was Cordingley on the Hot Seat?
It came as a surprise to many in lacrosse last week when the Toronto Rock fired their head coach Troy Cordingley. General manager Terry Sanderson said it was time for new voices behind the bench, which makes sense except Cordingley was the coach of the year and Toronto had the best record in the NLL. In the team announcement, they say they relieved Cordingley of his duties, so this wasn’t…

Just one game was in action last week as Hamilton defeated Ohio. Here are the team reports for this week.
NCAA Championship: Duke vs Syracuse
It’s pretty amazing Duke made it all the way to the NCAA championship game if you remember their start to this 2013 NCAA lacrosse season. Right now they sit at 15-5, but this season has been far from a cakewalk. They started the season 2-4 with losses to Denver, Notre Dame, Maryland and a big upset by Pennsylvania. Last week they defeated Notre Dame in a 12-11 comeback to advance…
Jordan Burke Activated by Cannons
The Boston Cannons got some good news this week as their injured goaltender Jordan Burke was activated from the Injured Reserve.
Americans Could Impact 2013 NLL Draft
One of the most popular discussions in lacrosse today is the presence of American players in the NLL. It hit its lowest point last season with just 28 players, 18 of them on the Philadelphia Wings. With leagues like the NALL and others, some players got more chances to show their NLL skills- Ethan Farrell is a good example, and some other American rookies like CJ Costabile have emerged. This…
