The Philadelphia Waterdogs' thrilling 15-13 victory over the California Redwoods on Friday might have been the Premier Lacrosse League's game of the year so far.
The bigger story, though, was Philadelphia proving its offense has reached another level — and that its new era has fully arrived.
For nearly two quarters in Chicago, the Waterdogs looked out of sync. California controlled faceoffs, capitalizing in transition and off of mistakes.
Head coach Bill Tierney even acknowledged during the ESPN broadcast that his team had drifted away from its game plan with too many self-inflicted mistakes.
Still, the Waterdogs never looked rattled.
