I wrote about this matchup intensely leading up to the MLL semi-final between the Boston Cannons and Chesapeake Bayhawks. The Cannons were the best team in the league, with the MVP and goaltender of the year. The Bayhawks were the last seed in the playoffs and they barely snuck in with a winning record. I wrote at the time the only chance the Bayhawks had of beating Boston was if goaltender Chris Garritty stood on his head.
.... He did. Here is your 11th game of the year, the Bayhawks and the Cannons!
The Cannons came out firing in this win, winning the opening faceoff and scoring almost immediately. Max Quinzani, the rookie from Duke, scored the first goal of the game.
But Chesapeake came back moments later, when Bugs Combs scored a goal standing right in front of the crease and beating the goaltender of the year Kip Turner. Kevin Buchanan took the lead with his goal for Boston, but it would be their last lead of the game.
That is when the Bayhawks got hot, scoring five straight goals. The first of his three came from Ben Hunt, with his two pointer to give the Bayhawks a quick lead in the first quarter. After that Jeff Reynolds let one go inside the two point line, making it 4-2 Bayhawks after one quarter. Garrity played on his head that period, absolutely shutting down the Cannons.
The Cannons are a good defensive team, but they are mostly a running defensive team. Unless they score, they did not have much of a shot.
In the starting seconds of the second quarter Hunt strikes again, making it a 5-2 lead. Hunt also scored the next goal. The Cannons were having complete defensive breakdowns.
The last goal of their streak came from Jed Prossner beating Turner high. I was wondering why Turner wasn't pulled right there, when they have a good backup in Burke. But Boston stuck with the goaltender of the year, and eventually scored.
After a bad offensive sequence, Boston gets the ball and Buchanan makes them pay, slimming the lead to 7-3. But about one minute later that changed with Combs' goal.
Chesapeake would score two more times to make it 10-3 going into the half. I imagine the Cannons were stunned, but the Bayhawks really game planned for this one good.
The Bayhawks came out firing again, scoring twice sandwiching a Buchanan goal. Boston began their mini-comeback, scoring three straight goals to make it 12-7. That is when Kip Turner was pulled for Jordon Burke.
Into the fourth quarter, Ryan Boyle got a two point shot to make it 12-9. Burke did a terrific job, but Chesapeake scored one more to make it 13-9 which was the final. Boston had a few more possessions with chances to score, but could not, completing one of the biggest upsets in lacrosse this year.

Bayhawks Shock the World
I was writing here all week how the Bayhawks would not win the championship unless they did a few major things. Like, score consistently, have Kyle Dixon on his game, and stop Boston and Long Island from scoring. I said it would not happen.
It happened.
The Chesapeake Bayhawks took home the Steinfield Cup Sunday, defeating old-rival Long Island Lizrads. The Bayhawks already defeated favorite Boston the day before, their first playoff game since 2005 when they beat the Philadelphia Barrage to win it all. The Bayhawks and Lizards had matched up four times before in the early
2000's, winning the first the first three ever.
Peet Poillon was my player of the game, an absolutely outstanding day for the league's most improved player. The game was deadlocked or close most of the game until the Bayhawks began to dominate, scoring five in the fourth to the Lizard's one goal.
It was 4-4 at halftime and 8-8 going into the fourth quarter. The Lizards lost their rhythm on offense, partially thanks to Chris Garrity, my playoff MVP. Other top performers of the playoffs for Chesapeake where rookies Brian Carrol and Micheal Kimmel. Carrol scoring the hat trick for the Bayhawks, and Kimmel scoring a late goal to seal it.
The Lizards could have played this game better. They looked scattered on offense and Alex Smith dominated them on faceoffs. The Lizards lost their cool late and took too many penalties, highlighted by the Brian Spallina one in the second. Matt Danowski was held without a point for the first time this season, an obvious key to the Lizards loss.
No one gave the Bayhawks a chance, but they lived up to the old Baltimore Bayhawks tradition and beat the Long Island Lizards. This is the end of the MLL season. But stay here at the Lacrosse Blog, NLL season is right around the corner.

Meanwhile, the Boston Cannons defeated the Denver Outlaws to clinch #1 seed overall heading into the playoffs. A game where Matt Poskay scored yet another record, he now has 42 goals, breaking the Cannons record of goals in a season.
For Long Island, Goettelmann broke the record of all-time MLL goals last night in their win over the Toronto Nationals. Goetelmann was held scoreless the first three quarters, but scored the last three to secure the playoff spot of the Lizards.
The Bayhawks clinched their first berth since 2005, dfeating the Chicago Machine, who woul have clinch if they had won. Chesapeake also had to beat Chicago by four goals to offset the tiebreaker, or else if Chicago won next week the Bayhawks were out.
Championship weekend is August 21st and 22nd in Annapolis, Maryyland.

Top Plays of Week 10 and Other MLL Note
http://www.majorleaguelacrosse.com/game-highlight/1099/top-5-plays-of-week-10/
Here are your news & Notes for Week 11 of your MLL season:
Last week the Outlaws and Cannons clinched playoff spots, so there are only two more spots available for Toronto, Long Island, Chesapeake, and Chicago. My personal feeling: Long Island and Chicago will make it. Chesapeake does not scare me at all, and Toronto is all but out, but if a miracle occurs and Toronto makes the playoffs, they could be a dangerous team, or at the least a dangerous spoiler.
Award Winners for this week: Stephen Berger of the Lizards wins Offensive Player of the week, Kip Turner of the Cannons wins Defensive Player o the week, and Conor Martin of Denver wins Rookie of the Week in his MLL debut.
Those are you news and notes in the MLL for this week.
This week's action all takes place Saturday with Long Island vs Toronto, Boston vs Denver, and Chesapeake vs Chicago.

Another Look at the MLL
Last week I took a look at the Boston Cannons, Long Island Lizards and Toronto Nationals. This week let's look at how the season has progressed for the Denver Outlaws, Chesapeake Bayhawks and Chicago Machine.
Let's take a look where these teams are in the standings:
Boston 7-3
OUTLAWS 7-3
Long Island 5-5 2 GB
MACHINE 4-6 3 GB
BAYHAWKS 4-6 3 GB
Toronto 3-7 4 GB
The Outlaws have had a good year all season, fighing all season long to stay with Boston at the top spot of the league. Led by the 33 points of Team USA player Brenden Mundorf, the Outlaws can score with the help of Drew Westervelt, Dan hardy, and Max Seibald. Also on the roster is Team USA goaltender Jesse Schwartzerman, who is third in the MLL in GAA.
The Chicago Machine had a good start to the MLL season, but you imagine it's hard bouncing around city-to-city with no real home stadium. With Casey Powell opting out of playing this season, the Machine selected Ned Crotty of Duke with their first overall pick. Along with the Leveille's, the Machine can be a dangerous team if they find a way into the playoffs.
The Bayhawks, led by perennial all-star Peet Polion, could also be a team to look out for, or they could easily fall into irrelevance if the Nationals find a way to get hot. With Pollion second to only Matt Poskay in scoring, you have to go all the way down to ninth to find the Bayhawk's next leading scorer in Kyle Dixon. Chesapeake is second to last in scoring to only Toronto, a team that may turn it on later on in the season.
Let's take a look where these teams are in the standings:
Boston 7-3
OUTLAWS 7-3
Long Island 5-5 2 GB
MACHINE 4-6 3 GB

Toronto 3-7 4 GB

John Tucker Named Wings Coach
The Philadelphia Wings named offensive coordinator and former Wings great John Tucker head coach today to replace Dave Huntley. Tucker led the Wings to their first two championships in 1989 and 1990.
Tucker is also the coach of the MLL's Chesapeake Bayhawks and coached the LA Riptide. He also coached the Baltimore Thunder in the past and led them to a championship vs Philadelphia in 1998.
“I would like to extend a heartfelt thanks and appreciation to the ownership group of the Philadelphia Wings for this incredible opportunity.” said Tucker, “We will work tirelessly to return this franchise to its rightful place atop the National Lacrosse League standings. Our team will play with passion, energy and rekindle the fire, which, over the years, has been the trademark of the Wings franchise.”
“We are very proud to name John Tucker as our new head coach.” said Wings President and Owner Russ Cline, “John’s great play as a former Wing earned him selection into this year’s 2010 NLL Hall Of Fame class. He’s a tremendous leader and played on a number of the Wings World Championship teams. He has gone on to become a very experienced and winning coach. We are confident John will field a team that is exciting to watch and will get us back to the playoffs. It’s a great day for the Wings organization and our fans.”

MLL Weekend Game Recaps
In the last weekend of MLL before the FIL, here are your recaps!
The Boston Cannons defeated the Chesapeake Bayhwaks Saturday to stay tied for 1st place in the MLL with Denver. Paul Rabil scored four goals including a two point goal. With Chris Eck out last night, John Ortolani was called up from the practice sqaud and made an immediate impact. He won the opening face-off and gave Rabil the opening goal. Matt Poskay scored three goals and is now four goals away from tying the all-time scoring record in Cannons history
Matt Donowski made MLL history in the Lizard's win vs the Machine, scoring three two pointers in his four goal night. As you remember, the last time the Lizards and Machine met it was an overtime thriller. This one stayed in regulation, however close. With three minutes left and the Machine up by one, one of Danowski's two-pointers took the lead and it stayed that way.
Meanwhile in the FIL world, the Iroquois nation has still been denied entry and it appears unlikely they will participate.

MLL Week in Review
Reviewing the last week of MLL action before the all-star game....
Denver beat Chesapeake in one of the biggest crowds in MLL history. In a ver rainy and overcast game, Matt Bocklet and Max Seibald had hat-tricks for the Outlaws. The rain created swamp at invesco made scoring difficult and the added pressure of the tough Denver defense made it hard, as Denver held the Chesapeake attack at bay to win the Fourth-of-July games, 12-10.
The Long Island Lizards beat the Chicago Machine in a must-win game. The Lizards were down by four points with 9:30 left in the game before scoring the next four goals and five points, thanks to Chris Fiore's two point shot. Chris Rotelli scored with 0:04 on the clock to tie the game, but !:42 in, Zack Greer scored the game winner for Long Island.
The Nationals defeated the Cannons, 15-13 to better their record to 3-5 and continue their win streak. The Cannons scored the first two goals, the first a first career goal for Stephen Boyle. You can read the rest of my Cannons-Nats recap here

Machine Aquire Levine
The Chicago Machine and Chesapeake Bayhawks announced a trade. The Bayhawks will send Jordan Levine to the Machine for Chazz Woodson.
“Trading a guy with Woodson’s talent is not easy; however, we think Levine fills a big need in our line-up,” said Machine Director of Player Personnel Scott Hiller. “At this point in the season, you have to evaluate your needs. Therefore, this trade makes perfect sense for the Machine and the Bayhawks"
The Machine have been looking for a midfielder since drafting Ned Crotty, they have good depth at Attack.
Woodson was the 20th overall pick by Long Island in 2005. Levine was the 10th overall pick by New Jersey in 2008. Levine has only played this season in Chesapeake, but he helped lead Toronto to a title last season.
