London Masters Lacrosse League – June 4th Wednesday Night Recap

London Masters Lacrosse League – New Series Kicks Off!

Team Lia Surges in Third to Take 1-0 Lead Over Team Cienna

The London Masters Lacrosse League launched its new summer series last night, introducing fresh leadership with Team Cienna and Team Lia at the helm. In classic Wednesday night fashion, fans were treated to a high-energy, back-and-forth battle that set the tone for the weeks ahead.

The first two periods saw both teams trading blows, each building up two-goal leads at different points, only to have their opponents claw back. The scoreboard read 8-8 heading into the decisive third period, thanks in part to some standout performances from newer players on both sides and a string of impressive saves by both goalies.

But the third period belonged entirely to Team Lia, who found another gear and rattled off five unanswered goals—setting a new season benchmark for most consecutive goals in a period. That late-game surge sealed a 13-8 victory for Team Lia, who now hold a 1-0 series lead over Team Cienna.

It was clear that a little more midweek conditioning might be needed, as both benches felt the pace as the game wore on. Fortunately, recovery was just around the corner, with players heading to Mustang Sally’s for some well-earned adult beverages and to catch the dramatic Edmonton Oilers overtime win—an ideal way to unwind and let the muscles recover.

A reminder: We’re running every Wednesday night from mid-May to the end of August, so there’s plenty more lacrosse action (and post-game fun) to come. Whether you’re a veteran or a newcomer, now’s the perfect time to join the excitement—on the floor and at Mustang Sally’s afterwards!

London Masters Lacrosse League – May 28th Wednesday Night Recap

Team Salmon Takes the series over Team Cameron in Tight 11-9 Victory

Last Wednesday night’s battle in the London Masters Lacrosse League saw Team Salmon edge out Team Cameron with an exciting 11-9 win. The game was tightly contested from the start, with both teams locked at 4-4 at the halfway mark.

Teams faced a challenge with one of their main goalies absent, turning to a backup tender to guard the net. While the backup showed grit and determination, a couple of soft goals late in the game allowed Team Salmon to pull ahead by two with just two minutes remaining.

Despite a valiant effort, Team Cameron was unable to close the gap before the final buzzer, handing Team Salmon a hard-fought victory.

With that victory Team Salmon takes the 5 game series 3 games to 1.

Next Week – we have a new series starting and new team captains – so come out and get involved!

Wednesday Night Recap

Wednesday night delivered another memorable matchup in the London Masters Lacrosse League as Team Salmon faced off against Team Cameron.

Despite missing their fearless leader, Team Salmon wasted no time, jumping out with a quick opening goal to set the early pace.

Team Cameron answered in dominant fashion, stringing together 7 straight goals and seizing control of the game, taking a 7-1 lead into the 3rd period.

The pace was quick – and with 4 runners on each bench – both goaltenders elevated their play, making key stops on numerous breakaway chances and keeping the game within reach.

Team Salmon mounted a spirited comeback, but Team Cameron held firm, securing an 8-6 victory and snapping Team Salmon’s two-game winning streak.

Team Cameron’s captain led by example with a pair of goals, while newcomer Conor also tallied two, and several other runners contributed to round out the scoring. ( was I in the crease on that one? )

With momentum now shifting, Team Cameron looks to build on this win and even the series next week.
