JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – Jacksonville University men's lacrosse head coach
John Galloway will make history once again when he plays in the inaugural Premier Lacrosse League game on Saturday, June 1. A member of the Chrome Lacrosse Club, Galloway and his teammates will face the Archers at Gillette Stadium in Boston at 1 p.m. The game will also broadcast live on NBC Sports Gold.
Just one year removed from captaining the US Lacrosse Men's National Team to a gold medal over Canada at the 2018 FIL Men's Lacrosse World Championship, Galloway joins a familiar cast of players with Chrome, including teammates from his alma mater Syracuse, with the Rochester/Dallas Rattlers of Major League Lacrosse, and with Team USA.
