Zed Williams earns PLL MVP as he leads Whipsnakes to a championship

Zed Williams and the Whipsnakes are the 2020 Premier Lacrosse League champions after taking down the Chaos, 12-6. The Whipsnakes finished the game on a 10-0 run, including outscoring the Chaos 9-0 in the fourth quarter. Williams, a 2017 Virginia graduate, had five goals in that 9-0 run and finished with six for the game en route to winning the Championship Series MVP.

“I know the whole game our defense was keeping us in it, and Kyle [Bernlohr] was standing on his head. I knew they [the Whipsnakes defense] were going to give us possessions,” Williams said, with a smile on his face before giving the Chaos goalie, Blaze Riordan (14 saves), a ton of credit.
