Although the Chesapeake Bayhawks finished 6-8 and just short of the 2015 Major League Lacrosse Playoffs, this past season has been a memorable run for the entire staff, roster and fanbase.
Second only to the Denver Outlaws, the Bayhawks were proud to lead the MLL in attendance with nearly 45-thousand fans making their way to Navy-Marine Corps Memorial Stadium in Annapolis over the span of 7 Chesapeake home games.

Tyler Fiorito finished 2nd in the league with a Goals Against Average of only 11.99 and rightfully earned his spot at the 2015 MLL All-Star Game. Attackman Matt Danowski finished 4th on the Assists list and 14th in Points.
Coach Dave Cottle also called 2015 his last as head coach, but will continue remain as president. Cottle steered the Bayhawks to back-to-back titles in 2012 and 2013 and he was also the first coach in the MLL to crack 100 career wins.
