GrizLax vs the scats

This Friday under the lights of Wa-Griz at 7:30pm. The Griz lacrosse team has started the season 5-0 and are looking to carry that momentum vs the scats Fri night and Idaho on Sun at noon. For those who are wondering about Marcus Knight, he’s played in 4 of the 5 games while scoring 2 goals, one assist, and five ground balls won. For those who don’t know, like I didn’t, a ground ball is when the ball is lose on the ground and it’s being fought for by opposing players. The player that scoops it up gets a “GB” stat because it’s a very important part of the game. The team leaders in these stats are 24 GB(#27 Sr Jace Jarvis), 8 goals(#33 So Aiden Havens), and 5 assists(#8 So Miles Hess and #39 Fr Preston Stewart)
Go GrizLax!

Awesome. Will be fun to see Marcus play lacrosse. I have heard he has had some limited time initially in the early games they had, but that he is looking pretty good.

He’ll be wearing #22. I’m sure it’s taken him a few games to get back in game shape but he should do pretty well I think. I wonder if they’ll notice an increase in attendance with him on the roster. These will be their first home games of the year after traveling to Washington and Minnesota the last 2 weekends.
 
Here’s a link to the team website with schedule, roster, and stats amongst a lot of other good info on the Griz lacrosse team.

Counting the others reviving votes, the Griz play or have played 10 teams on that list. They’ve already beaten W Wash, St Thomas, and Minn-Duluth and will play the scats this Fri. They’ll also play Utah St, UC San Diego, Cal State San Marcos, UC Davis, NDSU, College of Idaho, and MSU-Denver.
 
I know this probably gets asked a fair amount, but where are most of our players coming from? Assume Montana hasn't implemented Lacrosse as a high school sport.

They get a lot of out of state kids but there is quite a few good players from MT. It is not a sanctioned high school sport but it is a club sport and the popularity keeps growing here in the state. I am Head Coach for one of the High School girls team in the state and our season is getting ready to get going.

So not sure how well it will work since this will be the 1st time I’m trying it but this is supposed to be a live feed of the game. It says it’s not starting tell 8 though so not sure if it’s a delayed feed or the game is just starting a half hour later then scheduled.
