Season MVP Byrne also Named Finals MVP; Fourth Seeds Sweep Best-of-Three in Front of Home Fans at KeyBank Center after Dominating Second Half to Take Game 1 Friday; First to Go Back-to-Back Since 2015-16
PHILADELPHIA - eTradeWire -- The fourth-seeded Buffalo Bandits claimed their second straight National Lacrosse League (@NLL) Championship, earning a 15-13 win in front of a sellout crowd of 19,070 at KeyBank Center to sweep the best-of-three series from the third-seeded Albany FireWolves. The Bandits, playing in their fourth straight Finals, became the first team to repeat since the Edmonton/Saskatchewan Rush turned the trick in 2015 and 2016. In all, eight teams have now gone back-to-back.
Tonight, Buffalo took a 4-1 lead then extended to 8-3 with 9:28 left in the first half, with two goals each by Chase Fraser and Tehoka Nanticoke and four other Bandits scoring one each before the FireWolves fought their way back to a 9-8 deficit early in the third. But a run of five straight markers by the hosts, including three more by Fraser, who finished the day with five goals and two assists, proved the decisive stretch to give the franchise its sixth championship. NLL Most Valuable Player and NLL Finals presented by AXIA Time MVP Josh Byrne collected eight assists. Sam Firth had five goals and two assists in a losing cause for the FireWolves.
