I wrote about goalies. There’s a whole lot of really good ones in the league right now. Probably more than we’ve ever seen

Read to see why they’re so important in the playoffs, and some stats and visualizations showcasing the top guys⬇️

@chadrpalumbo @joekeegs CTs weren’t tracked in the MLL until 2016. He had 30 in his 3 seasons after then. Brutal beat

[Pat McKeever @patmckeever24]

@d00gs Billy Dwan is the most Canadian american in the league

Can't wait for this Manley/Fields matchup on Monday

[Pat McKeever @patmckeever24]

Lowest Sh% in the same shooter vs. closest defender matchup since 2023 (min. 15 shots):

4.0%… Fields vs. Manley (1-25)
5.6%… O'Neill vs. Hossack (1-18)
10.0%… Garnsey vs. Neumann (2-20)
10.5%…. Pannell vs. JTGH (2-19)
13.3%…. Zed vs. Jeffrey (2-15)

[Adam Lamberti @atlamberti]

In their five losses this season, the @PLLArchers have only allowed 11 scores per game in those contests.

That average would still LEAD THE LEAGUE in that category.

Historic defense.

@WillManny_1 @danarestia Same issue, sorry! It’ll be marked as correct soon

[Pat McKeever @patmckeever24]

@danarestia Exactly, we’re in the process of adding transfer college data, so whenever I add colleges I try to make sure no possible transfers are included, just missed Zinn here. Clarke is working for me, that’s strange.

[Pat McKeever @patmckeever24]

Wisnauskas recorded not only the highest Sh% in PLL single-season history, but also the highest SPOE

[Pat McKeever @patmckeever24]

Ryan Terefenko led the PLL in clears (70) for the 4th time in the last 5 years, trailed only by his linemate Zach Geddes (58)

The difference between 1st and 2nd in career clears (Terry - Geddes, 124) is greater than the difference between 2nd and 22nd (Geddes - Puglise, 113)

[Pat McKeever @patmckeever24]

@RedwoodsPodcast You have to play in a game to count for a team

[Pat McKeever @patmckeever24]

@HuttonJackson Thanks Hutton!

A possession starts immediately when a team gains possession, so failed clears count

On average there’s only about 2 of these types of possessions per game though

[Pat McKeever @patmckeever24]

The best teams in the PLL this regular season on a per possession basis heading into the playoffs

[ESPN PR @ESPNPR]

The 2026 @PremierLacrosse regular season on ABC, ESPN & ESPN2 was up 27% YoY

🥍 Marking the most-watched season EVER

[Pat McKeever @patmckeever24]

This is the longest streak since Paul Rabil recorded a hat trick in 8 straight games in 2016

No one else has done it for more than 5 straight games in the PLL

[Premier Lacrosse League @PremierLacrosse]

Michael Sowers closed the season on an absolute tear. 🤯

Can he keep it rolling into the playoffs? 👀

Maybe a 3/3/3/3 game? Only 2 ever:

Byrne (2020 vs Chrome): 4G, 3A, 3CT, 3GB

McArdle (2016 vs Lizards): 7G, 3A, 3CT, 4GB

Currier had 2G, 2A, 1CT, 13GB and won 12 of 17 faceoffs in the 2023 Semifinal

Blaze had 2A, 1CT, 5GB, and 17 saves for 68% in the 2021 Semifinal

[Dan Arestia @danarestia]

In honor of Russell Westbrook's retirement, what's the closest a pro lacrosse player has been to Russ's 20/20/20 game?

I found a Shawn Evans game with 4 goals, 2 assists, 7 loose balls, and and 26 penalty minutes. He has several claims to this crown, but that's my favorite.

[Pat McKeever @patmckeever24]

Games with at least 1G, 2A, 7GB, and 1CT have happened 8 times.

Currier is responsible for half of them.

Dylan Molloy (8/6/22), Joe Nardella (7/27/19), and John Maloney (5/28/16) have the others

[Pat McKeever @patmckeever24]

No Currier-Gami.

This statline (1G, 2A, 7GB, 1CT) has happened 1 time before (John LoCascio, Jun 11, 2016)

[Kyle Bennett @KBizzl311]
