Rochester signs 2 of its 3 top scorers and the reigning goalie and defensive players of the year.
ROCHESTER, N.Y. — The Rochester Rattlers agreed to contracts with Jeremy Boltus, Ned Crotty, John Galloway, John Lade, Jordan MacIntosh, Donald Moss and Joel White prior to the deadline for player movement on Wednesday. All seven players had engaged in the Player Movement Policy, allowing them to seek deals with other Major League Lacrosse (MLL) teams.
The signings allow Rochester to retain two of their top three scorers from last season in Crotty (48 points) and Boltus (38 points), while also keeping the reigning Brine Goalie of the Year in Galloway and a reigning Warrior Defensive Player of the Year in White.
The Rattlers also received Chesapeake’s fifth-round pick in the 2017 MLL Collegiate Draft as compensation for losing defenseman Will Koshansky in player movement.
