Albany’s Lyle Thompson holds the ball for the last shot in the quarter. A Syracuse pole attempts to remove Lyle’s left hand.

ONE SMALL COMMENT: Albany’s mostly white gloves look great on television because they’re wearing white helmets and white shorts. Hey…these things do happen.

    A couple of my friends played on the Road Warrior team when Lyle played. I saw one of their games a tournament and saw him to many embarrassing things to his defenders. At one point it got inches away and started to cradle behind the defenders back. Amazing stick control…

    After looking at the lax.com pictures it looks like Lyle used at least 3 different sticks in that game.

    Well, we know the rome’s work pretty well. And the pocket isn’t even deep at all.  he just knows how to handle that stick.
