I like playing at the Du Burns arena in Baltimore. Even though it has a lot of weird little annoying things like the blinding windows and the awful locker room layout, it also has a lot going for it. The turf is one of the best in the league, the fans show up to games and seem to know about lacrosse and, most importantly, we are 2-0 in the building…
The Baltimore Bombers are currently a .500 team now at 3-3 on the season and two games back of the now 5-1 Boston Rockhoppers, who defeated Baltimore 18-9 on Sunday afternoon. Boston was led by a seven goal performance from Mike Stone and another performance in net from Vincent Talbot that held an opponent under ten goals. Baltimore meanwhile struggled in every area of the game in what looked like…
The Baltimore Bombers split last weekend in Kentucky, their last game being a loss in overtime, and today they face their new rivals the Boston Rockhoppers. In their last meeting, Boston defeated Baltimore 20-9 in a blowout. Baltimore was without several players who should be back this week, and they face Vince Talbot in net after Nick Schroeder, Boston’s starter at the beginning of the season, was released this week….
The Midwest Indoor Lacrosse Association ended on a high note last season when the Colorado Sabertooths, an expansion team, won the league’s second ever championship over the Grand Rapids Dragonfish. However, if you followed the league all season, you would know of the ups and downs they faced, from championship postponements, to lack of information to some teams just not belonging at that level. Changes are coming from the MILA, no…
The Boston Rockhoppers face the Baltimore Bombers this weekend as the Bombers look to avenge their blowout loss to Boston a few weeks ago. Martin Bowes says they just need to play the same way to beat Baltimore. “To beat Baltimore this upcoming weekend we’ve just got to keep doing what we’ve been doing. Using our athleticism to run on teams, great goaltending, and face off play have been some…

Yesterday we saw the Baltimore Bombers make some moves, one of which was releasing forward Justin Otto. Otto then signed with the Rhode Island Kingfish. Already playing in Boston last season, Otto is ready to be back in New England. “I’m excited to be apart of the new organization. They have some great talent on the floor and can be a very good team once everything gels.” Otto had been…
Ethan Farrell’s Philadelphia Wings were blown out by the Rochester Knighthawks yesterday. But before that, I caught up with him about the season so far for the Wings, and about being an American in the NLL. 1. What has the NLL experience been like? Its been pretty awesome so far. Making it from Free Agent/Rookie camp to the Training Camps and getting a roster has been unbelievable. Just being able…
The Baltimore Bombers and Rhode Island Kingfish got busy on Thursday afternoon, making a trade and a few more transactions. In what can be said to be the first trade in North American Lacrosse League history, the Bombers sent James Synowiez to the Kingfish for a fifth round draft pick next season. Synowiez has two goals so far this season with Baltimore, who play Rhode Island on Saturday night. Meanwhile,…
The Rhode Island Kingfish have played three games all time in the North American Lacrosse League, and they have lost them all. First they fell to Kentucky by three, then Baltimore by four and finally, Boston by 13. “Our confidence is not an issue.” says goaltender Joe Evans. “No one on our team is down despite our record. Although we would have liked to come away with a W in…
