Coverage of the Buffalo Bandits, Rochester Knighthawks, Rochester Rattlers and New York Lizards and coverage of Syracuse, Albany, Manhatten and more.
For just the fourth time ever, the Syracuse Orange were taken down in the quarterfinals of the NCAA Tournament. The story of the day for Hopkins was graduate student Eric Schneider. Schneider picked up 15 saves and has been on a recent “redemption tour” after getting torched several times early in the season. At certain points it looked like nothing would be getting past him as he made some phenomenal…

The Rochester Knighthawks took a huge 1-0 series lead on the Toronto Rock last night. They won thanks to a last minute goal from Dan Dawson that made Sportscenter’s Top 10 plays. Check out the video below.
Dan Dawson’s game-winning goal with 36.1 seconds left in Game One of the East Division Finals led the Rochester Knighthawks to a 10-9 victory over the Toronto Rock. “(It was) perfect timing,” Knighthawks head coach Mike Hasen said. “You can’t ask for anything more than that.” The Knighthawks saw a career-high six-point performance from Brad Self (3+3). Craig Point also completed his hat trick and added a helper in the…
It’s the most storied rivalry in all of college lacrosse. It’s the Michigan-Ohio State or the Duke-UNC of its sport. It’s none other than Johns Hopkins-Syracuse, the two winningest programs in the history of college lacrosse. Tomorrow at Navy Marine Corps Memorial Stadium, another chapter will be written into the already huge book between the two teams. We’ll begin with what will be considered the “road” team due to…
Albany came into the second half after rain delay trailing and needed a momentum shifter. Lyle Thompson took the reigns and played through triples and quadruples of defenders coming at him. A few times, he lost the ball. In the end, Notre Dame stepped up on defense and made fast close range shots goals. They stole the momentum shift away from Albany. The Fighting Irish go on to Philadelphia after…
The Rochester Knighthawks will play the Toronto Rock in a best of 2 series starting tonight at the Blue Cross Arena, faceoff set for 7:30 pm. The Knighthawks are fresh off a 14-11 victory in round 1 where they defeated the Buffalo Bandits. The Rock are the top seeded team in the East, so they had a bye in the first round. Coming into this season, I think a lot…

When Lyle teams up with freshman Connor Fields, who has 82 points, as a lefty attack…
The game started out with shades of last year’s upset loss to Bryant, as the Red Foxes of Marist scored the game’s first goal to take an early lead. That would be their only lead of the night. Syracuse scored 10 unanswered there after to cruise to a 20-8 victory in a humid Carrier Dome. The Orange will play Johns Hopkins, a 19-7 victor over Virginia earlier in the day,…
Sunday saw a rematch of the 2014 MLL championship game when the Denver Outlaws visited the Rochester Rattlers. What a difference a year makes though. The Rattlers handed the Outlaws their second defeat of the season by a score of 15-12. Attackman Jordan Wolf tallied a hat trick for the Rattlers, and five other players had at least two goals for Rochester. Mike Bocklet and Greg Melaugh led the Outlaws…
