Gavin Adler named PLL defensive player of the year

[dag14]

Adler quietly did his job well enough to impress those who evaluate PLL performance.  I love that the award is titled the "Dave Pietramala Defensive Player of the Year."

Teat named game MVP with 3G, 3A as the NY Atlas defeated the Denver Outlaws 14-13 in a wonderfully entertaining championship game. All the Cornell guys made an impact, with Kelleher adding a goal for NY, Adler playing terrific defense, and old friend Jon Donville scoring a goal for Denver (they listed Donville as being from "Maryland" but we know he's truly a Cornell guy).

I was meh on the PLL prior to this season, but with so many of our guys now in the league I watched quite a bit and really enjoyed the pro game. I'd prefer they lengthen the shot clock a few seconds on the possessions, but otherwise the games have been fun and the league seems to be building momentum.

I watched some the game and thought it was pretty terrific seeing the Cornell players on the field. A lot happened in the fourth quarter, and not all of it made perfect sense. That was a terrific save by Liam Entenmann (although man was in the crease). Glad Teater was named the Best Dude and the New York team won.

Is there a list of LAX Alumni in the Pros?

No formal list but this is who I can recall:

NY — Teat, Adler, Kelleher, and Davis (who I believe was never active for a game)
MD — Pannell
PHI — Kirst
DEN — Donville
CAL — Ierlan

I believe that's it, but it's possible I'm missing a guy or two.

These are the PLL players.  There may be a different mix in the MLL.
