New West middie leads pro field scoring

Selects team named

New Westminster's Kevin Crowley continues to lead Major League Lacrosse scoring following the Hamilton Nationals' 17-11 win over the Rochester Rattlers on Saturday.

Crowley tallied a first-half hat trick to help pace the Nationals to a 6-2 record, second-best in the MLL.

Crowley's three goals increased his point streak to 23 games - the longest in franchise history. He has been held to two goals or less on just three occasions this season.

The first round draft pick in the Western Lacrosse Association indoor summer league in 2010 currently tops all scorers with 26 goals and 35 points in the pro field league, one point better than Paul Rabil of Boston.

The Denver Outlaws currently lead the eight-team pro field lacrosse league with an unblemished 8-0 record.

In other field lacrosse news, the Burnaby Mountain Selects announced its summer travel roster.

Alex Friesen made the boys' elite varsity team at big stick; Niklas Friesen was named goalie of the sophomore elite team; Tate Friesen earned an attack spot on the under-13 elite team; while Erik Maas was also named to the elite freshmen team in the midfield.

The four travel teams, including 81 student/athletes will represent the Selects at top U.S. tournaments in Colorado, Indiana and Maryland.
