However, with Dillon Ward and Zach Currier defecting to the PLL, the Outlaws will have to draw on their other big guns this season if they want to win another championship. John Grant Jr. is back…

The Chesapeake Bayhawks are anxious to play the 2020 season on their home field at Navy Marine-Corps Memorial Stadium as the reigning Major League Lacrosse champions. They are also hoping to swoop in for a repeat championship this season.

On March 8th, 2020, the Toronto Rock hosted the Calgary Roughnecks. The game marked the return from injury of both Tom Schreiber and Dan Dawson, but was a 13-10 victory for the visitors.

ILWT Feature: In conversation with Dillon Ward

July 3, 2020

#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…
