Mammoth Keep Scoring Pace, Down New England
After falling twice to Edmonton last week, the Colorado Mammoth bounced back with a 14 goal performance to take down the slumping New England Black Wolves 14-12. “I think consistency is one of the things we’ve got work on,” said Black Wolves offensive coordinator Jim Milligan on NLL.com. “At times we have it, at times we let it go.

Simmons Column: No Benefits to Snow-Crosse
Photo Credit: Ian Neadle Playing lacrosse in the snow is not easy. It is harder to pass, clear, collect ground balls and see the ball as a goalie. Snow leads to a sloppy game and creates parody between unequal teams; that is what we saw in the Loyola-Holy Cross game. Three games had game times changed or were postponed on Saturday: UMBC-Monmouth, Penn State-Villanova, and Georgetown-Towson. I can’t tell you…

Syracuse and Army Highlight NCAA Sunday
When Army and Syracuse play on Sunday evening in the Carrier Dome, they are restarting one of my favorite series on the Syracuse schedule. This rivalry took a year off because of the Orange’s move to the ACC last year, which put Maryland into the weekend typically reserved for Army’s visit. With Maryland’s departure from the ACC, the Army date is back on. Army and Syracuse both are typically loaded…
Black Wolves Look to Rebound Against Colorado
This afternoon the New England Black Wolves (2-4) will host the Colorado Mammoth (3-3). Both these teams are winless in their last seven combined games, after winning their first five combined. After winning their first two games the Wolves have fallen on some hard times losing four straight, including Friday nights 13-12 OT thriller of a loss to Toronto. This was their best game since their 17-7 win over Rochester in…
