Fox Loves Lacrosse Ball

This Fox loves playing with this orange lacrosse, almost as much as this Bulldog Puppy loves playing with a yellow lacrosse ball. Animals love lacrosse. Duh!

The Brokenest Stick

Thanks to Chris Tiernan for breaking this stick.

Boston Box Lacrosse – Megamen Vs Blazers

Lots of cheap shots, lots of third man in action, and not a lot to be proud of. As a sport, we can be better.

Adrian Now Has TWO Former Players in the NLL

NCAA DIII Adrian College is a hot program on the rise. They won the Midwest Conference last year and then lost a tough OT game to Denison in the first round if the NCAAs. With Tyler Tanguay already in the league, Mitch Barnard signing with Buffalo for the season gives the Bulldogs two guys in the pros now. Expect more good things to come out of this Michigan based program.
