MM 9.23: Former Terps lead Whipsnakes to inaugural Premier Lacrosse League Championship

The inaugural season of the Premier Lacrosse League reached its end Saturday, and 17 former Terps were crowned champions (20 are on the full roster).

The Maryland-led Whipsnakes, the No. 2 seed in the PLL playoffs, faced off against the No. 4-seeded Redwoods. The latter overcame a 9-2 deficit to take an 11-10 lead late in the fourth quarter, but Matt Rambo’s clutch goal sent the game into overtime.

And in the extra period, the 2017 Tewaaraton Award winner delivered the championship-clinching goal to give the Whipsnakes the first title in PLL history.
