On a rain-soaked 2016 evening in Kennesaw, Georgia, Eric Law cemented his legacy as one of the greatest scorers in the history of field lacrosse.
Law netted five goals in the Major League Lacrosse championship that night, including the game-winner with 12.9 seconds left on a diving, over-the-shoulder shot with two defenders draped all over him. It earned Law MVP honors in the Denver Outlaws’ epic 19-18 comeback win over the Ohio Machine, the second of three MLL titles for the Outlaws that Law played a central role in.
Fast forward to this season, and Law remains ready to do whatever it takes to help the Outlaws win another championship. Only this time, it won’t be with a stick in his hand as the Outlaws face the New York Atlas in the Premier Lacrosse League championship next Sunday.
