Philadelphia Wings News Release


Three members of the Philadelphia Wings indoor lacrosse team have been chosen to represent the United States in the Heritage Cup. Forwards Keith Cromwell and Dan Marohl along with defenseman Shawn Nadelen will join Team USA as they face Team Canada on Saturday, October 16 in Denver, CO at 9 p.m.

"The U.S. staff believes we have an incredibly competitive roster and we hope to defend our Heritage Cup victory from 2002," said Team USA General Manager Steve Govett. "We are excited to have Cromwell, Marohl, and Nadelen as a part of this team and expect them to contribute significantly. I had originally hoped to have Jake Bergey on our roster as well, but an injury will prevent him from making the trip to Colorado."

Cromwell was the Wings third leading scorer in 2004 with 53 points (17G, 36A) and the team's top American scorer. Marohl was fourth in scoring overall with 34 points (23G, 11A) and was second among all Americans. Nadelen recovered 60 ground balls and played in nine games for the Wings during the 2004 season.

Team USA is coached by former Wings head coach Tony Resch. Jim Rogers and Jamie Batley will serve as assistant coaches.

The United States and Canada each have one Heritage Cup win with the US defeating Canada in the inaugural Heritage Cup match in 2002 and the Canadians winning in 2003.
