Rochester Knighthawks News Release
(Rochester, NY)... Rochester Knighthawk Jordan Hall was named the National Lacrosse League's Transition Player of the Week today for his efforts Saturday against the Buffalo Bandits. Hall led Rochester with a season-high six points (3+3) and added six loose balls. His second goal tied the game at six and capped a three-goal comeback at the end of the third quarter.
It was the second straight week, and third time this season, that Hall received the league honor. On February 26th, he notched four points (0+4) in the home win over the Edmonton Rush. "Guys are getting more comfortable with me in the lineup and vice versa, and I am getting more comfortable with them," said the Delaware grad. "Hopefully, we'll keep gelling and keep building on it."
The 26 year old now has six goals and 12 assists in six games as a Knighthawk. Hall was acquired third overall in the dispersal draft of Orlando Titans players this offseason. Last season, he was named a Second Team All-Pro and led all transition players in assists with 58, finishing fourth overall in the league in the category.
The Knighthawks will host the Philadelphia Wings on Saturday, March 26th at The Blue Cross Arena. The first 5,000 fans will receive a Knighthawks tote bag. The Knighthawks have partnered with Urology Associates of Rochester and will wear special jerseys on Men's Health Night. The jerseys will be raffled off, in-arena and online, to help fight prostate cancer. The 7:35 p.m. game will be broadcast live on The Zone 94.1 FM and www.thezone941.com.
