In the Sr B division of Canadian box lacrosse, we see one team clinch a berth to the President’s Cup and the other one just a win away.Last night the Caughnawaga Indians claimed their fourth win over the Snake Island Muskies to take the Three Nations Lacrosse League championship in an 8-6 victory. They won the series four games to one in the best of seven showdown.
Lyle Thompson (Albany) put away five points while Jeremy Thompson (Edmonton Rush) added three of his own. The Indians goaltending combo of Alex Fortier and Daylin Adams allowed just six goals over three periods.
Jake Lazore, Joe Hall, Brodie Merrill (Philadelphia Wings) and Josh Sanderson (Toronto Rock) each had three points for the Muskies. Lazroe also allowed eight goals in the loss.

Meanwhile, the Kahnawake Mohawks have a chance to close out their series with the Capital Region Axemen this Saturday. They lead the series 2-0 in the best of five. In their last game, the Mohawks took it 9-7.
