All of the @CuseMLAX draft picks were in action in last night's @MLL_Lacrosse games. Salcido & Mariano - FLA, Firman - NY, Williams - CHES.

For @Florida_Launch, Mariano had 2 G on 2 shots, while Salcido had 1 G on 1 shot. For @LizardsLacrosse, Firman played, but recorded nothing.

For @TheBayhawks, FOGO Williams went 23-of-32 on draws with 15 ground balls, a shot, and an assist. Won Player of the Game honors a well.
Who'd Williams go against, you know?

Didn't see the game but Ohio's face off specialist is Greg Puskuldjian, out of Adelphi.

Williams put up great numbers. How did that happen after what was seemingly a performance decline as the season progressed?

Well, the answer may be in the postgame article.

Just about all of us at some point stressed strong wing play and/or the absence of ball hawking wings this season. Here is an interesting quote that suggests Ben may have believed the same:

"It was a lot of fun, but we didn't get the W so I'm not happy with that. It was fun to get out here and play with this group," said Williams, who credited long stick midfielder CJ Costabile and a variety of short stickers with helping the Bayhawks dominate the draws. "My wings did a phenomenal job tonight. It wasn't by any means just what I was doing. They were sweeping up balls left and right."

Puskuldjian is sub .500 on face offs this year. Ben did a very good job vs him, will be interesting to see him go against the bigger names. Also interesting to note, the Bayhawks drafted Kelly as well and Ben was given the first chance and made a nice impression

Any word on why Salcido isn't getting run with the Launch? I watched their playoff game and having him in the lineup would really help
 

Syracuse did not have a player on either team, but Matt Palumb was the referee.
