Rampage to play for national lacrosse title

Aug 20, 2017 | 10:51 AM

The Red Deer TBS Rampage are a win away from becoming national junior B lacrosse champions.

The Rampage will play in the gold medal game at the 2017 Founders’ Cup Sunday after defeating the Manitoba Blizzard 10-7 in the semifinals on Saturday.

Dustin Bell and Elijah Johanson each scored twice for the Rampage in their win over the Blizzard, the same team who beat them to win this year’s league and provincial title.

A tough task awaits Red Deer in the final as they will face the undefeated and defending national champion Orangeville Northmen.
