DENVER - The National Lacrosse League announced today that Colorado Mammoth forward John Grant, Jr. has been named the team captain of the NLL All-Star Game's West Division squad. The game, which will be played this Sunday at the Turning Stone Resort Casino in Verona, New York, will be the seventh all-star appearance for the Peterborough, Ontario native.

"John has earned every accolade and award he's ever been given in the sport," said Mammoth Head Coach Bob Hamley. "This is yet another honor for John that is well-deserved."
