Toronto Rock 18, New England Black Wolves 10, Air Canada Centre, Toronto, ON

Gord and I are season ticket holders for the Toronto Rock lacrosse team games ... the Rock is a professional lacrosse franchise in the National Lacrosse League (NLL).  This is our fifth year going to the games and our fourth year having seasons tickets.

Tonight was the first game of the playoffs and the Rock were playing the New England Black Wolves ... whoever won this game would move on to the next round.

Scotty Newlands sang the national anthems.

The Rock players huddled before the game.

And the game began ...
