These days, everyone in box lacrosse is
looking for the next Tom Schreiber. Could the Oakville Rock have
found him?
Oakville was missing several of its
regular players when they opened the 2017 Major Series Lacrosse
season by facing the Kodiaks in Cobourg on Sunday afternoon. They
wound up flooring an offensive left side of callup Todd Kozak, usual
transition player Brandon Slade and someone named Connor Fields.
If you're just a box lacrosse person,
there's a good chance you don't know Fields. He is an American field
player who has starred with the Albany Great Danes in the NCAA. He
puts up tons of points and has been a finalist for the Tewaaraton
Award, presented to the top player in US college lacrosse.
