Offiacial Press Release
by LakersFanClub
Here is the official press release from the Lakers management in regards to the Tuesday nights Brawl against St. Regis...
The Peterborough Lakers deeply regret the cancellation of last night's game with St. Regis with 13.9 seconds remaining in the second period while the Lakers were leading 10 - 5.
These two teams have been strong rivals for several years and, as the game score became somewhat one-sided, the checking became increasingly more aggressive and escalated into very rough play and fighting.
At present it's not clear whether last night's game will be considered as official or not; we expect the league to make a decision on this within a few days. Similarly, the league before the next game will announce any suspensions to players or team personnel.
Despite this unfortunate event, Lakers fans can look forward to the team providing exciting lacrosse and entertaining games as the season progresses. It is our objective to promote Canada's national summer sport and have a successful 2007.
The team is focused and ready to play this Thursday night and we ask for continued support from our loyal fan base.
