A few months ago, I originally announced a new idea, the InLax Lacrosse League. We ran into a few road blocks along the way, but I am glad to announce that we here on the new site we are moving ahead with the project! Marisa and I have been working behind the scenes for a while, and we are ready to move ahead. Here are the details. There are 24 teams…
Dan Leventhal scored five goals, and Hank Altschuler played a stellar game between the pipes, as the Israel men’s national lacrosse team topped No. 9 Ireland, 12-11, at Amsterdam Bos on Tuesday. Israel raced out to 2-0, 4-2 and 6-4 leads, but Ireland answered the bell each time, staying within striking distance as they stifled the Israeli offense for the last 13 minutes of the first half. Ireland tied the game at 6-6 with…
We finally stopped the losing streak and started playing as a team again! Charlotte is a very difficult team to match up against because they have a tremendously talented roster, and while though their record might not show it, they are going to gel soon and be a tough team to stop. We went into Charlotte riding a 2 game losing streak, so it was a delicate situation to make…
Battle of the new franchises is upon us, again. This time though, there are new factors at play. Teams have altered their rosters and get to try different game plans. Charlotte, standing at 1-6, has the edge with an early season 18-15 win over Ohio. The Machine’s record is at 1-5, with their only win coming over Rochester. The Hounds have come close to a couple wins, losing by one…

The Israel men’s national lacrosse team suffered their first loss in program history, falling to No. 8 Netherlands, 13-5, at Koninklijke Nederlandse Hockey Bond on Monday. Israel got off to a hot start, as Dan Leventhal and Rich Cheifitz gave the blue and white 1-0 and 2-1 leads, respectively. Hank Altschuler played excellent in goal, making several big saves to keep the momentum in Israel’s favor, but the Dutch took…
After a shaky start to the start of the season, the Long Island Lizards have come back and won four games in a row. An early 13-11 loss to Chesapeake didn’t seem too bad. When they traveled to Denver and lost 19-11, that’s where the doubt came in. The Long Island offense scored 11 goals both games and the defense let up a combined 32 goals. Nothing seemed to be…
