Now that the 2007 President's Cup has been awarded to Canada's top Senior 'B' lacrosse team, the Sherwood Park Outlaws, the lacrosse focus turns to the Minto Cup, Canada's Junior 'A' lacrosse championship.
The Minto Cup is halfway over, with four of the six round robin games completed (there are two playoff games to make a total of eight games). The tournament opened on Friday night as the British Columbia champion Burnaby Lakers defeated the Alberta champion Edmonton Miners 17-8. The second game saw the Ontario champion Six Nations Arrow Express lose to the host New Westminster Salmonbellies 10-7 in a fairly close game. On day three (Sunday), the Burnaby Lakers fell behind early but eventually came out 7-6 winners over the Salmonbellies. The score for last night's game (Six Nations vs. Edmonton) has yet to be posted.
The current standings (omitting last nights game) is as follows: Burnaby Lakers are on top with a perfect 2-0 record; second place is New Westminster Salmonbellies at 1-1; tied for third is Edmonton Miners and Six Nations Arrows at 0-1. For game summaries visit the Minto Cup website.
