Exciting Second Week of Box Lacrosse

Week 2 was wet and games were moved inside to the Four Seasons Arena in Carlton.  It was a good venue and games were exciting!  Two games ended with overtime goals in Braveheart.

In Game 1, the Catamounts held off the Retrievers 8-5 in a game that was closer than the three goal difference would indicate.  Game 2 was an exciting affair as the RiverHawks held off the SeaWolves 13-12 in overtime.  The RiverHawks held a lead for most of the game and the SeaWolves came back to take the lead with seconds to play.  With 4 seconds left, Will Smyth heaved a desperation shot on goal from mid-rink that went in to tie the game.  In Braveheart, Matt Porter would win the opening faceoff and take the ball down to score the winning goal.  In Game 3, the BearCats controlled the game leading by as many as 5 goals at one point.  However, the WildCats would continue to chip away at the lead and tie the game.  The ensuing overtime Braveheart saw both players get shots on net with saves by both goalies, before Ethan Palusky would retrieve his rebound and put the ball in the net for the 9-8 win.

Next weeks games are scheduled to go back to Lower Chester if the weather remains dry.  Next weeks schedule looks like:

4:00 p.m. - Great Danes vs. Catamounts
5:00 p.m. - BearCats vs. RiverHawks
6:00 p.m. - WildCats vs. Retrievers

Great First Day of Box Lacrosse!

It turned out to be a great first day of box lacrosse after all of the puddles dried up!  The pace was fast and the games were fun to watch!  The benefits of box lacrosse were evident as the players started picking up the two man game, pick and rolls and give and goes.  This league is all about sharpening lacrosse skills and not about the scores and it's very clear that the players are really improving and box lacrosse is helping them get there.  It's fun to see the improvement in skills over only two years ago!

We had some good games with no team winning  by more than four goals.  In game one, we saw the BearCats (Binghamton) take down the SeaWolves (Stony Brook U) by a score of 17-14.  Game two saw the RiverHawks (UMass-Lowell) come out on top of the Catamounts (U of Vermont) 14-10 and in the last game of the day, the Retrievers (UMBC) topped the Great Danes (U of Albany) 10-8.  The WildCats (U of New Hampshire) had the bye.

Next week we'll see the Great Danes with the bye and Catamounts taking on Retrievers at 4:00 p.m., RiverHawks against SeaWolves at 5:00 p.m. and BearCats versus WildCats at 6:00 p.m.  See the season Standings and Stats and the Season Schedule on the website.  See you next week, and stay tuned for any weather related site changes.

Site Change Due to Wet Weather

Due to the wet playing surface at Lower Chester, we will have to move our box lacrosse games to a different site tomorrow.  Games will be played tomorrow at the Duluth Heights rink.  This is a grass/dirt surface rink so remember to bring CLEATS.  There is also some gravel at one end.  It's not the best surface but should be playable.  The address is: 

Duluth Heights Recreation Center

33 W Mulberry St
