It was a relatively quiet day for Tom Schreiber. He scored three on the day, two of them unassisted; as well as three assists. Talk about comparable teams much? The Tigers and Tar Heels were practically neck and neck the entire time. I was not until the closing minutes of the game that North Carolina finally pulled ahead, and Princeton lost its steam. On North Carolina’s side of…
The Niagara Lock Monsters (5-2) emerged victorious over the SouthWest Cyclops (2-4) in Friday night Canadian Lacrosse League (CLax) action with an 11-7 win.

Last night’s Buffalo Bandits win over the Minnesota Swarm wasn’t the only contest of the night, as two heavyweights in Andrew Suitor and Steve Priolo battled.
With a little over three weeks off from NLL regular season play, there was some talk going around the fans in Banditland about the team possibly showing some signs of rust after their extended break. The Buffalo Bandits were able to shake off any remaining rust they had and returned to the win column with their first of three 2014 regular season matchups with the Minnesota Swarm Saturday night at…

This was a special night for Mammoth forward Sean Pollock #17, as he was playing in honor of his wife who is a breast cancer survivor.

Tonight the Buffalo Bandits defeated the Minnesota Swarm by a score of 12-9. After the game, we caught up with Dhane Smith and Steve Priolo to discuss the win.
Let’s look at the statistics here, folks. The Edmonton Rush have already semi-broken an NLL record. In 1993, the Buffalo Bandits were the first team to ever record an undefeated season topped off with a championship victory. Now, a dozen years later, the Edmonton Rush are looking to redefine NLL history in itself. For one, the season has increased from eight games to 18 games. The Rush are already 9-0,…
Alex Urquhart The Minnesota Swarm have assuredly struggled this season, going 2-7 so far and only grabbing wins against the Philadelphia Wings and only winning in Philly to boot. The team has lost all three home games at the Excel Energy Center, and all of their away games, not in Philly. This week the Swarm will take on the Buffalo Bandits at First Niagara Center. The last time the Bandits…
Tonight the Philadelphia Wings (3-7) will face the two-time defending champion Rochester Knighthawks (6-3).

The Wings are currently riding a four-game losing streak that they will look to end tonight. Recently signed defenseman Stephen Hoar is looking forward to getting back in action and helping the Wings…
