Editor’s Note: We’re back with another NLL Game of the Week! Thanks to the help of the innovative team at SISU Guard, the Official Mouthguard of the NLL, we are beefing up our National Lacrosse League coverage for 2016! We hope you enjoy our look at the NLL season through a new lens with the aid of our partner SISU!
For the first time this season, every single team in the NLL plays this weekend! With so much action kicking off the final stretch of the 2016 campaign, there is no way we could point at just one match for our Game of the Week!
It’s still anyone’s race and ever the two squads at the bottom of their conferences still have time to make a run at the playoffs. If you haven’t caught a game yet, I advise you to tune in this weekend. For the rest of you loyal NLL fans, fire up every last device you have and do your best to watch 4 games at once on Friday, and 3 overlapping showdowns on Saturday!
9 teams, 7 games, 2 days, 2 networks…. let’s get rolling!
