Launch Knocks Roster to 23 Players
September 9, 2015 - Major League Lacrosse (MLL)
Florida Launch News Release
After another 5-9 season, the Launch looks to its off season to build upon what the end of 2015 brought them, more wins than losses. The Launch made its first move of the off season by knocking its roster down to 23 players. The Launch protected the fire power of Kieran McArdle, Lyle Thompson and Casey Powell, as well as the defensive backing of Tucker Durkin, PT Ricci and Pat Frazier to name a few.
Only minor changes were seen on this first pass but the big moves will be coming on Wednesday, October 7. On that Wednesday the 23-man protected roster is whittled down to only 12 players in preparation for the 2016 MLL Expansion Draft. The draft will be held on Wednesday, November18 and can be followed by tuning into our Twitter page - www.twitter.com/Florida_Launch.
