Boston is coming off a 13-10 loss on the road against Atlanta Blaze. Chesapeake went 8-6 in 2016, and lost their season opener in week one 15-14 in overtime at home against the New York Lizards. Both Chesapeake and Boston missed out on the 2017 postseason and are battling to be in contention this year. Cannons Captains The Cannons named Josh Hawkins, Will Manny, Max Seibald, and Justin Turri as the captains for the 2017 season. Manny and Seibald have been co-captains since the 2015 season. Looking Ahead After starting off the 2017 campaign with two road games against the Florida Launch and Atlanta Blaze, the Cannons are beginning a four game home stand. The Cannons will welcome Chesapeake, Rochester, New York, and Denver to Boston over the duration of the next month. MEDIA CONTACT Katherine Donnelly kdonnelly@bostoncannons.com 603-505-7174 (cell) Making History Midfielder Justin Turri scored his 100th career point in the 2017 season opener against the Florida Launch. Turri reached the milestone on an assist to Joe LoCascio s goal just 1:37 into the third. With four assists in the 18-17 victory, Turri s career point total now stands at 102.

Old Ties Goalie Tyler Fiorito will be facing his former team when the Cannons host the Bayhawks. Chesapeake selected Fiorito 10th overall in the 2012 Collegiate Draft.

Last Year's Matchup: The Cannons secured wins in both match-ups with the Chesapeake Bayhawks during the 2016 campaign. Boston had a thrilling 13-11 victory over the Bayhawks on the road on May 12th. On June 23rd, the Cannons defeated Chesapeake 17-14 in front of the home crowd at Harvard Stadium. Home Field Advantage: The Cannons were 5-2 at Harvard Stadium last season and are looking to continue their overall success at home in 2017.

GAME 3 PERVIEW Where: Harvard Stadium Who: Boston Cannons vs. Chesapeake Bayhawks When: Saturday May 6th, 7:00pm Tickets: Click Here Following a 1-1 start to the season with two road games, the Boston Cannons come home for the first time this year to face off against rival, the Chesapeake Bayhawks in their home opener. The Bayhawks started their season 0-1 with a 15-14 OT loss at home against New York. Key player for the Bayhawks, Myles Jones, had four points for his team in their opener. One of their stars from last season, Brendan Mundorf retired from the game prior to the season. Throughout the first two games, the Cannons standout players have been Will Manny,Joe LoCascio, Scott Bieda and Davey Emala. Manny leads the way with eight points on the season. LoCascio and Bieda each have six followed by Emala with five. The two goalies in this matchup are at the bottom of the league. Cannons goalie Tyler Fiorito ranks 10 th with a 14.42 GAA. For the Bayhawks, Brian Phipps ranks 11 th with a 14.88 GAA. The Bayhawks were 11-31 on face-offs in their first game. If the Cannons can get Joe Nardella back, that would provide a big boost for the team after they struggled at the x last game without him. Getting out to a fast start at home will be key for the Cannons. In the first two games, the slow starts from the team have been a reason for concern. The Cannons were 5-2 in front of their home fans last season. The fan base in Boston is very strong as the team averaged the second highest attendance in the MLL last season. Boston and Chesapeake Come out to Harvard Stadium for the home opener this Saturday at 7pm.

CANNONS 2017 SEASON PREVIEW The Boston Cannons 2017 season is set to launch April 23 on the road against the Florida Launch. The Cannons and second year coach Sean Quirk have high expectations after finishing 8-6 last season and missing the playoffs due to a seven-way tiebreaker. Last year s leading scorer with 50 points, Will Manny, an established veteran and team leader, thinks that this year s group could be special. Manny and David Emala make up a dynamic duo on attack and a tough task for any opposing defense and combined for 55 goals last season. The Cannons will return four of their top five point scorers from last season in Manny, Emala, Justin Turri and Max Seibald. You can t get swept by any teams in this league. Especially in the early on with guys still playing in the NLL, college coaches and college draftees. Winning the early games is something we re really focused on for us this year. We have a lot of guys coming back. A lot on the defensive side and a couple of new guys on the offensive side that are going to fill in spots that we needed last year, said Manny. Joe Nardella at the X can set the tone for the Cannons playoff hopes early on. Nardella went 181-316 in the faceoff circle last season, a 57% win percentage. Face-off wins and gaining possession of the ball at the opponent s end of the field gives teams a big advantage. Along with the strong faceoff numbers, Nardella had 94 groundballs scooped up. His ability and willingness to do the little things is something that he has been doing since the collegiate level. The dirty work is not glamorous but goals and wins are a product of the work Nardella has prided himself on during his career. There is nothing more beneficial to a team's rhythm and confidence if they know they can get the ball back after giving up a goal or have the ability to play make it take it. On the contrary, there is nothing more deflating than giving up a goal and having to play defense again or not being able to maintain momentum after you score one, said Nardella. Cannons goalie, Tyler Fiorito, had the fourth best goals against average in the MLL last season at 13.01 in his first year with the team. He will look to rebound on those numbers, as his career GAA is 12.48. A new face will be in front of Fiorito this season with defensemen Matt Landis joining the Cannons for the first time following the trade from his former team and opening day opponent, the Launch. With the Launch last season, Landis scooped up 25 ground balls and had nine takeaways as one of the premier young players in the league. I m extremely excited to play with Matt. I think he fills in nicely. Brodie Merrill and Mitch Belisle are very intelligent and experienced defensemen so having Mullins and Landis there make up the defense very well and we re capable of defending any of the top-two attackmen in the league, said Fiorito. David Earl, a midfielder, brings a new face to the locker room and will look to fill the void left by Brent Adams who left the Cannons and signed with the Denver Outlaws. Earl was a teammate of Landis with the Launch and will look to continue to build their chemistry together. A six-year veteran, his presence in the locker room and experience on the field will be a boost for the team. Earl has had an impressive run thus far with 91 points in his 53 career games. Both of them help us from defense to offense and getting our offense the ball back to score more goals this year, said Manny on the additions of Earl and Landis. With most of the core group returning this season, the Cannons are in a good position to make a deep run. However, with the limited time together opposed to the collegiate level, finding that trust and developing strong in-game communication with the new players is a must. Trust is a big thing and continuity. There s 60 minutes in a game and playing one minute games for 60 minutes is really how you have success in this league because it s a battle every night, said Head Coach Sean Quirk. The Cannons will look to form chemistry together and reach their potential level quick in order to reach the playoffs and hoist the Steinfeld Trophy for the second time ever. *Notes: Former Boston Cannons coach, John Tucker, will return to the team this season as assistant coach and offensive coordinator.

CANNONS 25 MAN ROSTER NOTES The Boston Cannons of Major League Lacrosse (MLL), the premier professional outdoor lacrosse league, announced today their 25-man active roster and 6-man practice squad for the start of the 2017 season. Led by returning captains Will Manny and Max Seibald the Cannons will open the 2017 season on the road this Sunday, April 23 against the Florida Launch. In addition to Manny and Seibald, 2017 captains also include midfielders Josh Hawkins and Justin Turri. Manny and Seibald are returning for their 3 rd year as captains while Hawkins and Turri are both first time captains. The coaching staff was extremely pleased with our two weeks of training camp, said Cannons Head Coach Sean Quirk. We believe that a lot of continuity was built early on, both on and off the field. We progressed extremely well with getting our systems into place during training camp to prepare for game 1 and the 2017 season. The Cannons will make their return to Harvard Stadium for the 2017 home opener on Saturday, May 6th at 7:00 p.m. against the Chesapeake Bayhawks. We had a very competitive training camp that left the coaches and I with some tough decisions, but we are thrilled with the team we have built this off-season, said Cannons GM Kevin Barney. We have a great group of veterans, along with first and second year players that are ready to compete starting on April 23. The 25-man active roster is highlighted by several key returners including four of the teams top five point scorers from last season in Will Manny, Davey Emala, Justin Turri and Max Seibald. Seibald, Manny, Josh Hawkins, and Tyler Fiorito were 2016 All-Stars. The Cannons bolstered their roster in the off-season acquiring 2016 NCAA Defensive Player of the Year Matt Landis and 2016 Big 12 Defensive Player of the Year Rob Haus in a trade with Florida. Veteran midfielder David Earl was acquired in a trade with Charlotte and attackman Scott Bieda and midfielder Alex Zomerfeld were Supplemental Draft picks to make the active roster. Veterans Mitch Belisle, Kevin Buchanan, and Brodie Merrill will begin the season on the MLL inactive list as they finish their indoor seasons. The staff is very confident in the selection process and the roster that we are announcing today heading into our 2017 campaign. Our belief heading into this season with our organization is OneTeamOneGoal. We could not be more excited to head into our opening game with a group of men that want to win and be a part of something special this season, Coach Quirk stated.
