With the MLL All-Star break coming up, now is a time to look back at the Rochester Rattlers’ opening half of the 2015 MLL season. Last year’s runner up in the 2014 MLL Championship game against the Denver Outlaws in Kennesaw, Georgia, the Rattlers (5 – 3) are currently tied for second overall in the league with the Ohio Machine (5 – 3). Six Rattlers will be representing the team…
Heading into All-Star Weekend, now is a good time to reflect on the 2015 MLL season so far. There is no argument that the New York Lizards have been the best team, leading the MLL standings with an impressive 8-0 record. Their record has come as a result of their offensive firepower and dominating goaltending The Lizards were picked as the pre-season favorites to come home with the Steinfeld Cup,…
The New York Lizards showed no mercy to the newly-established Florida Launch as the Lizards dominated all the way to a 18-11 victory. Leading the way for the Lizard was Rob Pannell and Tommy Palasek with five goals each. The Lizards were sporting some new pink alternative uniforms that will be autographed and auctioned off and all proceedings will go the Susan G. Komen Foundation. Certainly a great way to…
The Florida Launch look for a bright spot to conclude their dismal road swing as they take on a red hot New York Lizards team. This contest features some of the best scorers in the league in Kieran McArdle, leading the league with 22 goals, as well as Paul Rabil with his 18 goals, 14 assists. Stuart Stadium, on the campus of Hofstra University hasn’t treating the lizards any differently…

The Charlotte Hounds on Saturday night fell 21-16 to the visiting New York Lizards. At one moment in the fourth quarter the Hounds were down by 13 points, but fought back to make it a four-point game with 3:27 to play. The Hounds even set a new team record for 2-point goals scored in a game, tallying a total of four on Saturday night. The Lizards’ Rob Pannell was named…
Coming off of a bye week, the New York Lizards visit the Charlotte Hounds at American Legion Memorial Stadium, looking to keep their undefeated season going. This is the first time the teams will see each other this season; the second time will be at James M. Shuart Stadium on June 20th. These teams sit on opposite sides of the standings, with the Lizards, no surprise, in first with a…
After dropping Game One of the Eastern Conference final by a narrow 10-9 score, the Toronto Rock returned to their home floor at the Air Canada Centre on Saturday night looking to even and steal the series from the back to back to back NLL champion Rochester Knighthawks. The Knighthawks saw leading scorer Cody Jamieson go down with an ankle injury early on in Game One, but still were able to…
The news was bad for the Rochester Knighthawks this week despite their game one victory in the eastern conference finals. Cody Jamieson, last season’s MVP, was injured in the victory last week. It’s being reported he has a torn Achilles and will miss the remainder of the playoffs. Along with the playoffs, Jamieson could miss most of the Six Nations Chiefs series in Major Series Lacrosse. It remains to be…
Well the final four is set. We have Notre Dame vs. Denver and Johns Hopkins vs. Maryland. I have to say, I am very surprised that Maryland won, but I’m more surprised at how it won. I did not expect that the Carolina offense would struggle so badly; it was never really close at all. I expected the UNC attack to run all over Maryland and outscore the Terps significantly,…
