Author’s Note:  This is really an exciting development for the growth of the sport!  Another dedicated lacrosse stadium for an MLL franchise!  There have been some college lacrosse-dedicated stadiums, like Arlotta at Notre Dame and Barton at Denver, with Michigan finalizing their own on-campus lacrosse stadium, but this is a major step up from even the Fortress where the Ohio Machine calls home.  Maybe one day we can find a way to either fill up FAU a lot more or find a way to make a permanent lacrosse facility in our area too!

  Excerpt: The Chesapeake Bayhawks hinted that the franchise was looking for a lacrosse-specific home in March of 2017. That’s when the Baltimore Business Journal reported the team’s ownership had proposed a $40 million stadium as part of a “bigger sports complex.” The news had most excited for the future of the Bayhawks in a new stadium. It followed along the lines of the Ohio Machine, which opened the first lacrosse-specific MLL stadium this May. The Bayhawks made their plans official on Thursday, revealing alongside the Chesapeake Sports and Entertainment Group a “multi-sport field and performance complex” that included an amphitheater and 10,000-seat stadium — the new home of the Chesapeake MLL franchise. The new stadium and complex will be located in Crownsville, Md., a town approximately 20 minutes from Navy-Marine Corps Stadium in Annapolis, where the Bayhawks have hosted home games since 2010.   Read the rest HERE There is a link later on in the article to the full project schedule with pictures of the facilities.
