You know that part of moving day when all your furniture is gone and you find all the junk, dust and dirt you dropped behind the couch over the years? That was the same type of mess in the standings and playoff scenarios on Day 5 of the Presidents Cup in Oakville. Throughout the day there were possibilities for a three-way tie for first, another three-way logjam for third through…
After a two-year hiatus, the President’s Cup tournament returned to Edmonton where seven teams from across Canada competed for the crown of top Senior B team in the nation. The Edmonton Miners – winners of the last three President’s Cup’s – played host at the 1,600 seat Bill Hunter Arena. The teams that qualified for the tournament were: Edmonton Miners (RMLL), Akwesasne Bucks (CanAm), Six Nations Rivermen (OLA), Capital Region…
Blaze Riorden leads the charge as Rochester gets second win of season Friday night the Rochester River Monsters (2-4) defeated the Native Sons (1-4) 21-6 in Can-Am lacrosse action at Bill Grays Regional IcePlex. The River Monsters came out fast and furious in this one and ended the game quick. So quick, in fact, that the River Monsters’ seven-goal lead 12 minutes into the game could have ended it right…
Braves use 7-1 second period to slay River Monsters in season opener. The Rochester River Monsters (0-1) opened their 2018 campaign at Bill Gray’s Regional Iceplex as they faced the Tonawanda Braves (1-0) in Can-Am Sr. B lacrosse action. Unfortunately for the River Monsters, they fell to the Braves 14-11. Last season the Braves defeated the River Monsters pretty handily in both their meetings, so to say the tension was…
It’s always tough writing a blog about ending your season earlier than expected, but thats what I find myself doing yet again this year as our team was eliminated in a deciding game 5 in Onondaga against the high powered Redhawks on Sunday afternoon. Our regular season ended with us finishing 10-4 and securing 3rd overall place in the league. We played Buffalo Creek in the first round and swept…
This past weekend saw us up in action for a home game against the Pinewoods Smoke, a team who we recently beat in OT on the road by a final of 13-12 two weeks ago in a tightly contested game. We were missing many regulars so the score was probably a bit closer than it should have been for that one, but it set a good tone for the rematch…
The St. Regis Braves defeated the Saint Catharines Saints to win their second straight President’s Cup. The score of the Championship game from yesterday was Braves 13 to the Saints 9. In the Bronze Medal game, the Rockyview Knights defeated the Spruce Grove Slash nine to eight in Overtime. The teams who medaled will be the Braves, Saints and Knights. Jerome Thompson of the Braves was the most valuable player…
It’s the last day of the President’s Cup before the Championship games yesterday, and it was all set up from an upset yesterday. The St. Catharine’s Saints of Ontario defeated the Spruce Grove Slash, 10-9 in overtime. Today the 0-4 Kahnawake Mohawks face the 4-1 Saints. Spruce Grove, now at 4-1, face the St, Regis Braves who are 5-0 in tournament play. Lastly, the Mohawks will once again play, this…
Hello again everyone, I am back with a new update from the Can/Am league and the Rochester Greywolves. It’s been a few weeks since my last post and there has been a lot that has happened so I’ll cut the chase and get right into it. Two weeks ago the Greywolves faced off Vs. the Newtown Golden Eagles who just recently finished the regular season in first place. This game…
Hello again everyone. Sorry it’s been a few weeks; clearly a lot has gone on since my last blog as evidently we are now on a new/sexier In Lacrosse We Trust platform. As In Lacrosse We Trust has been apparently coding, I have been steadily racking up the mileage on my weekly journeys to Western, NY. (Thank you Hertz Gold Club – now please waive that $200 cleaning fee from…
