Minnesota Swarm News Release


SAINT PAUL/MINNEAPOLIS, Minn. - Minnesota Swarm general manager Marty O'Neill announced today that the National Lacrosse League (NLL) team has re-signed forward D'Arcy Berthiaume to a 2006 contract and placed him on the Physically Unable to Perform List.

Berthiaume, 30 (8/4/75), recorded 32 points (14-18=32) and 20 penalty minutes in 13 games with Minnesota last year. The 6-foot, 200-pound alternate captain led the Swarm in face-offs taken (216) and face-offs won (99), ranked second in loose balls with 88 and sixth in scoring. The Vancouver, British Columbia-native tallied 17 points (10-7=17) in five games with the Victoria Shamrocks of the Western Lacrosse Association (WLA) this summer before suffering a torn Achilles tendon that forced him to miss the rest of the season. Berthiaume is expected to return to game action for Minnesota in the early part of the 2006 NLL season.

The Swarm originally selected him with the 11th pick in the Vancouver Dispersal Draft on December 15, 2004.
