From Press Release
Major League Lacrosse announced its 2019 All-Star Game player selections. Leading the league was Chesapeake with 10 players named to the game, led by goalie Niko Amato (La Salle grad, Immaculata head coach, NetNation coach).
Attackmen Steele Stanwick, Colin Heacock and Lyle Thompson, midfielders Matt Abbott, Nick Mariano, and Brendan Bomberry, SSDM Isaiah Davis-Allen, LSM CJ Costabile, defenseman Jesse Bernhardt, and goalie Amato will represent the Bayhawks in Annapolis on Saturday, July 27, at Navy-Marine Corps Memorial Stadium. The game is slated to start at 7:00 PM EST and will be broadcast live on ESPN2.
Also named to the squad was new York Lizards’ midfielder Kevin Crowley (Shipley assistant coach, Fusion Co-Founder).
Amato, the 2018 Brine Co-Goalie of the Year, will make his first All-Star appearance. The Maryland graduate has posted a .477 save percentage this season, but is one of the league’s best rebound controllers, only giving up 37 rebound saves (lowest in the league among starters).
