BARRAGE TOPPLE PRIDE IN OT

In what has been argued as the game of the year in Major League Lacrosse, the Philadelphia Barrage defeated the Pride 12-11 in Overtime last week. The game saw several lead changes throughout regulation and end-to-end action in the overtime frame. Defenseman Brett Hughes held Philadelphia's Ryan Boyle, the league's second-leading scorer, to just 1 point on the night. Rob Scherr made some spectacular saves on the night, including a game-saving save late in regulation that can be seen on the Pride's website.
