Tuesday night Chrome LC (2-0) defeated Redwoods LC (0-2) 12-11 in the sixth game of the Premier Lacrosse League Championship Series. This was a very spirited game, with a lot of action. In the early going with the sun starting to set would seem to be an obstacle for both teams as the shadows would roll in from the bench side of the field for the first quarter. It would…
Archers Lacrosse Club moved to 2-0 on the young PLL season after a 9-7 win over Waterdogs LC on Tuesday night at Zions Bank Stadium in Herriman, Utah. The Waterdogs fell to 0-2 with the loss.

On a rainy night in Utah, the Archers LC handed Atlas LC their first loss of the season 11-10. With the first game of the PLL’s night postponed due to rain, Archers and Atlas was the main event. It was the first game of the season for the Archers, who retained most of their roster from 2019. Atlas won over the Waterdogs on Sunday afternoon, so they now fall to…
It was the only lead they needed. With 2:24 left in the game, Atlas LC took an 11-10 lead over Waterdogs LC to give them their first win of the PLL season. Atlas’ defense stood tall and their offense was able to run out the clock on the final possession for the come-from-behind win. Chris Cloutier backed down on Chris Sabia, got underneath and chased in on a diving goal…
Chrome LC came out shiny in their first win against Chaos on the PLL’s opening day of play at Zions Bank Stadium.

The defending Premier Lacrosse League champion Whipsnakes picked up right where they left off with a season-opening 13-9 win over Redwoods on Saturday at Zions Bank Stadium in Herriman, Utah. The Whipsnakes defeated Redwoods in last year’s championship so it was like the game was just coming back from a long intermission – though each team stocked up on talent. Whipsnakes added Zed Williams, who made an immediate impact with…
#TradeWard. Nah, we’re just kidding. Why anyone would want to trade one of the best goaltenders in the world, we have no idea. In addition to being a great keeper, Dillon Ward (not Dylan) is a truly decent person. You’d be hard pressed to find an accolade Ward hasn’t earned at any level of lacrosse, indoor or outdoor. Most recently he helped Canada capture the gold medal at the 2019…

Can Baptiste be the next Geoff Snider for the Philadelphia Wings? The Wings’ inaugural season saw some head scratching with some of the selections made during the draft from the United States with little box experience compared to their box-dominant neighbours up in Canada. That trend has continued into this year with nearly every team in the league venturing into the American-born player market. But last year, it was still…
