CLax

This weekend the Brampton Inferno (3-2) face off against the Iroquois Ironmen (0-3). Preece was stellar in net for the inferno as he made 52 saves in the game and helped preserve the Inferno win. The Ironmen need to also pressure Preece while Preece was stellar last game he has been shaky at times this year and can be beat. If the Ironmen can spread the ball  around and open…

The Iroquois Ironmen (0-3) will look to register their first win of the 2013 CLax season when they travel to St. Catherines to take on the Niagara Lock Monsters (3-2). The game marks the second meeting between the squads, with the previous match-up resulting in a 22-13 road victory for the Lock Monsters. Leading the Lock Monsters thus far has been Corey Fowler. The forward leads Niagara in scoring with…

Niagara came out of the gate flying and never looked back. The Lock Monsters scored 44 seconds into the game and then hammered in 19 more for the 20-11 victory over the visiting Ohsweken Demons. Niagara led 4-1 after 1 quarter and were up 14-3 by halftime. The teams traded goals in the 3rd quarter scoring 3 apiece making it 17-6 going into the final frame. There was a bit…

The Ohsweken Demons will look to take soul possession of first place in the Canadian Lacrosse League as they take on the Niagara Lock Monsters on Family Day.

Durham’s offense has been lead by former Halton Hill Bulldogs Nic Grasby, Shane Scott and Scarborough native Scott…

The Canadian Lacrosse League announced its players of the week for week five on Tuesday night. Inclement weather in the Toronto area forced the postponement of two games Friday night but the remaining two games were played as scheduled. The Brampton Inferno improved to an even .500 on the season in a 17-13 victory over the Barrie Blizzard Saturday afternoon. On Sunday evening, the Niagara Lock Monsters debuted pro lacrosse…

I was supposed to get the day off on Saturday. Derek Collins played well as my relief in our previous game (when I somehow ended up in net as a ghost), so he got the nod for Saturday’s game against Brampton. I suppose a different way to look at it is that I was blessed with the opportunity to run the one door on the bench. A few problems there……

Although their team was defeated by Durham, the fans were treated to some great lacrosse in the Niagara Lock Monsters home opener Sunday night. 537 people took in the inaugural game at the Seymour Hannah Centre in St. Catherine’s Ontario, a good turnout for the city’s first CLax game. A slow start by Niagara had them trailing 7-1 in the second quarter and the Monsters were unable to recover from…
