Norwich Lacrosse: Pre-Season At A Glance

Norwich Lacrosse: Pre-Season At A Glance

by, Billy Mumphrey



 

Norwich University’s fastest growing team, Men’s Lacrosse, has their work cut out for them. CadLax (Cadet Lacrosse), as they’re known to the nation, is looking at seven tough out of league games to start the 2017 campaign before diving into eight out of nine hard fought GNAC league battles. But Norwich Lacrosse, is always up for a challenge. After finishing third last year in a rugged semi-final match, Norwich has re-loaded the cannons with a returning Goal-Shark Offense and strengthened its defense and goalie core with some Lights-Out Talent.

 

Coming to the Great Northeast’s Sabine Field this Saturday is the tough tested UMass Dartmouth Corsairs. The past two years, the Corsairs have gotten the better of the Cadets, but this year’s CadLax Squad is on a mission. “I’ve never seen a team on more of a mission than this year’s CadLax Squad,” an Un-named Source tells Local Big Time.

 

 

 

At the helm of the Cad-Ship is Reigning GNAC Coach of the Year, Head Coach Neal Anderson. Anderson, third-time winner, is known for drawing out the best of his players and getting them to work as one fluid unit. Norwich recently was voted third in the GNAC Pre-Season Poll and some say that fans and particular alumni are absolutely insulted by this. “I’m a fan! And I’m absolutely insulted by this!” proclaimed an Un-named Fan to Local Big Time.

 

The boys take the field at 1:00 PM this coming Saturday and I’d highly suggest all Norwich University Fans or general Lacrosse fans in the area go and watch the game. You won’t be disappointed.
