For the second year in a row, the Buffalo Bandits are the NLL Champions. The phrase “back to back” applies in multiple ways here as the Bandits are the back-to-back champions, of course, winning the NLL Cup last year as well. It also applies because they had to win back-to-back games in order to get to raise the new and improved NLL Cup this year. “I always think the most…

It is almost 2,500 miles from Albany, New York to San Diego, California. Also, there’s playing on the road, and there’s playing on the road in the playoffs. The FireWolves had a long way to go for game one of the semi-final round in this year’s playoffs, and boy, they did not squander that opportunity. We’ve discussed before that Albany’s team average in age is 26 years young. Saturday night…

Albany, New York was the place to be on Sunday afternoon as quarterfinal playoff lacrosse hit the Capital Region for the first time in the FireWolves’ history. Albany welcomed in the Halifax Thunderbirds for the final one-and-done playoff game of the weekend. Albany was downright stingy in this game. For a team with an average age of 26 years old, they looked like a group of grizzled veterans. Using a…

The last game of the penultimate week of the NLL season was a game with massive playoff implications. The hometown Panther City Lacrosse Club was right on the edge of making the playoffs and quite obviously wanted to keep that position. The visiting Albany FireWolves already solidified their spot, but with a win, they could lock up the third seed and clinch a home playoff game. We love a playoff…

For much of this season, the Toronto Rock and Albany FireWolves have been near each other atop the NLL standings.

Albany, who wore vintage blue-and-white Attack-themed jerseys after honouring former captain Brett Manney pregame, had…

Don’t look now, but here come the Rochester Knighthawks. For the second time in as many weeks, Rochester was set to do battle with one of their instate rivals, the Albany FireWolves. Last week, Rochester had an offensive explosion, beating Albany 18-12. This contest was much closer, but had the same result. Using a six-goal run between the end of the first and beginning of the second, Rochester snuck out…
