Coverage of the Boston Rockhoppers, Boston Cannons, and college coverage of New England teams like Boston University, UMass, Vermont, Quinnipiac and more.
The New England Black Wolves finished the 2015 campaign with a league-worst 4-14 record. They won their first two games, meaning they went a horrible 2-14 after the quick start. Their last win of the season came on Apr 4 when they squeaked past the Buffalo Bandits 12-11 and then they wrapped up the season with six straight losses. Needless to say, the team has some things to work on…
Will Manny couldn’t get away from lacrosse. After graduating from the University of Massachusetts in May of 2013, he began a full-time job with Bank of America in Boston. Even though he was still playing the sport he loves with the Boston Cannons, something was missing. “Within six months or so, I wasn’t comfortable,” said Manny. “It’s not that I didn’t like working in finance. I loved learning, but I…
The Boston Cannons were rebuilding. They traded the best player in the world. A top defenseman retired. They traded another. They lost two MLL legends to retirement. And they are competing for the final playoff spot in Major League Lacrosse. After losing to the Ohio Machine on Saturday, the Cannons had a three game winning streak snapped. Ohio clinched a playoff seed, and so did the Rochester Rattlers with their…
On the strength of six points from Peter Baum and Steele Stanwick, as well as a plethora of other contributors, Ohio (7-5) ousted Boston (7-5) by a score of 19-12 on Saturday night in front of 6,813 fans at Gillette Stadium in Foxborough, Mass. The Machine were down 4-1 after 15 minutes of play, but they dominated the second quarter, outscoring the Cannons 8-0 to take a five goal lead…
1. Capital Axemen had a huge 17-4 victory Saturday over the Mohawks. This gives the Axemen a 12-1 record as they stay in first and should be getting the top seed come playoff time. Alex Kedoh Hill helped play a big part in getting his team the win with (4G, 3A). Raj Wasson had four assists and Tim Bergin had three of his own upping his season point total…
For the better part of four months, many of us watched some exciting college lacrosse, whether it was on TV, online, or in person. There were good games, which included all of Championship Weekend, and there were bad games, such as low scoring affairs and of course, the horrendous winter weather. I take a look back at all 69 Division I teams and how they fared this season and what…
Over thirty-one thousand people passed through the turnstiles of Mile High Stadium on Saturday night to watch the Denver Outlaws play host to the Boston Cannons. For the second year in a row, Boston defeated Denver on the Fourth of July. While the 2014 edition was at least a respectable affair, the fireworks started early and often inside the stadium as Boston took no prisoners in 2015, utterly trouncing the…
Two games will be played across Major League Lacrosse this Fourth of July, as the Denver Outlaws host the Boston Cannons in their annual Independence Day match-up. The defending 2014 champions are 6-3 all time on Independence Day, and this year will mark the fourth time the Outlaws have welcomed Boston to take-part in the game. Boston is the only team to have played in the annual game more than…
1. The Capital Axemen are 11-1 in league play so far and look like the clear favorite to run away with a league title on the way to the Presidents Cup. Tim Bergin is leading not only the offense but also the league with 74 points. Tim had a good CLax season and transferred that over right to summer ball where he has been one of the best this season….
