Lizards

06/21/2009 By Douglas

Hey All Laxers, Today is Father's Day! A day were all Dad's are celebrated and showered with love by their families.  This being my 3rd Father's Day as a Dad it keeps getting better. Yesterday and today are soggy days up in Long Island where I have been since Friday, for those of you who have been following the US Open you know the weather I speak of. Last night at Hofstra the Lizards hosted the Chicago Machine, my former team. For those of you who don't know I am now a Lizard, after a decently successful US TEAM tryout I was picked up the following day. Although I didn't make the 40 man travel team I was happy with how my tryout went. Since then I played with the Lizards in Denver, the stats didn't reflect at all what type of game it was the penalty box did though. The league handed down suspensions and fines to a few players. Check the transactions on Major league lacrosse.com. So last night the rain fell heavily at times but it could have been worse, the Machine came out of fire and opened up a 6-2 lead by the end of 1st quarter. We were able to battle back and tie it by half. It was a well hard fought game but we were able to prevail by 1 goal. Bitter sweet, the Lizards move to 4-2 and the lonely Machine fall to 1-5.
