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.
