Week 7 of the NLL season was the busiest week yet, with seven games taking place. With every NLL team seeing at least one game of action this past week, NLL rookies where on full display. First overall pick in 2014, Ben McIntosh continues to separate himself from the rest of his draft class and fellow rookies, as his back to back four point games this past week allowed the Rush to go 2-0 and leap…
The Lizards have executed a trade with the Chesapeake Bayhawks that will bring former Lizard, Brian Spallina, back to New York. In exchange for Spallina, the Bayhawks will receive the Lizard’s 2016 third round MLL Collegiate Draft pick. Spallina, who has been a part of Major League Lacrosse since it’s inaugural season in 2001, played with the Lizards for the 2001, 2002, 2009, 2010, and 2011 seasons. He played with…
What an exciting weekend. Toronto put a little distance in the East, Edmonton and Colorado switched positions as the Rush swept this weekend, and the Knighthawks came up huge with two wins to go from last to second in the east. And in Calgary….things just get Rougher for the Roughnecks. NLL Power Rankings Week 7 (1)….1—Toronto Rock (6-1) Can’t stop the Rock!! This past weekend the Rock rolled their…
On Sunday evening, the Rochester Knighthawks were able to snag their second victory in two days as they defeated the New England Black Wolves 15-10 at Mohegan Sun Arena. In a game that saw a total of 85 penalty minutes, Rochester was able to frustrate New England many times while being on the penalty kill. The Black Wolves gave up two short handed goals over the course of the game…
“Soon as we went down three goals, something needed to be done,” said O’Brien after the game, of which he was ejected for this fight.
After coming away with a huge Western Division victory over the Calgary Roughnecks in overtime last week at the Scotiabank Saddledome, the Buffalo Bandits were faced with the difficult challenge of making it two wins in a row when they faced off against their Thruway rivals the Rochester Knighthawks at the First Niagara Center Saturday night. In their second of three regular season matchups on the schedule, the Bandits would…
Pride sophomore Brier Davis scored three goals but Golden Eagle junior Blaine Fleming scored his second goal of the game with just 1:18 remaining to give Marquette an 11-10 come-from-behind victory over 17th-ranked Hofstra at James M. Shuart Stadium Saturday afternoon. In addition to Davis, Hofstra received two goals and one assist from Sam Llinares and two goals from senior Mike Malave. Freshman Brendan Kavanagh recorded two assists in his…
The Rochester Knighthawks and New England Black Wolves are set for a rematch, once again at the Mohegan Sun in Connecticut. The last game on January 10 saw the Black Wolves finish with a dominating win, 17-7. That sent Rochester to a 0-2 start while New England beat most expectations to start the season 2-0. Since then, things have changed. New England was on the wrong end of lopsided losses…
The Buffalo Bandits look to reignite the thruway rivalry when they take on the visiting Rochester Knighthawks tonight. The Bandits narrowly escaped with a win in their game last week against Calgary, winning it 15-14 in overtime. The Knighthawks weren’t as lucky last week; they too played into overtime, but thanks to heroics from the Swarm’s Callum Crawford, the Swarm pulled away with the W over the Hawks 7-6, dropping…
