The National Lacrosse League has announced that the NLL Board of Governors have
approved the relocation of the Philadelphia Wings franchise to Mohegan Sun in
Uncasville, Connecticut and transfer of controlling ownership to the Mohegan
Tribal Gaming Authority, effective for the 2015 season.
Jeanmar Gomez Team Venezuela Jersey . "On
behalf of the entire NLL, we are proud to welcome the Mohegan Tribe as owners,
further re-connecting our league with the rich roots of the game," said NLL
Commissioner George Daniel. "We are also excited about the prospects of bringing
the NLL to Connecticut and greater New England for the 2015 season." The Mohegan
Tribe, which operates Mohegan Sun, also owns the WNBAs Connecticut Sun and
operates Mohegan Sun Arena with a seating capacity of 7,700 for NLL lacrosse.
The team marks the second current NLL ownership group of Native American
descent, as the league remains committed to honoring both the culture and
history of the game which was founded by Native Americans over 700 years ago.
"The Mohegan Tribe is thrilled to be associated with a game with centuries-old
roots with the Eastern Woodland Indians," Kevin Brown "Red Eagle" said. "By
bringing the lacrosse team to our reservation land, we are not only creating a
tie with the past, but bringing the game into an exciting future with our
top-notch sports and entertainment team. We are aiming to create a team and
community spirit to match what we have been able to achieve with the Connecticut
Sun." The team will begin play this December in the NLL East Division which
includes the Buffalo Bandits, Minnesota Swarm, Rochester Knighthawks and Toronto
Rock. The NLL West Division is comprised of the Calgary Roughnecks, Colorado
Mammoth, Edmonton Rush and Vancouver Stealth. While their current roster will
remain intact, the franchise will announce their new name and logo at a later
date. The Boards approval is subject to the closing on the transaction.

Real Madrid was held to a drab 0-0 at third-division Olimpic Xativa in its Copa
del Rey opener on Saturday, while Atletico Madrid started its title defence with
an easy 4-0 win at minnow Sant Andreu. Madrid was without suspended forward
Cristiano Ronaldo and the flu-stricken Gareth Bale, but not even Karim Benzema,
Marcelo, and Luka Modric going on as second-half substitutes could help it break
through Olimpics modest, but disciplined defence. Carlo Ancelottis team will
still be heavily favoured in the second leg of their round-of-32 tie at home in
two weeks. But Olimpics players went beyond merely savoring the moment, and
being sure to take Madrids jerseys as prized souvenirs. "We have left the series
wide open. Anything can happen now," said Olimpic goalkeeper Francisco Solar,
who made a key save to parry Madrids best chance by Isco Alarcon early in the
second half. Olimpic installed extra seating at its La Murta Stadium and the
small Valencia-based club launched fireworks before the start of its biggest
game in recent memory. A moment of silence was held for Nelson Mandela. Olimpic
arrived to the match with the nine-time European champion on an unbeaten run in
Spains third division. And after Madrids lackadaisical start, it appeared to
grow in confidence it could hold its own and ended up having relatively little
trouble recording its eighth straight game without conceding a goal. Ancelotti
said his players were not accustomed to playing on the artificial turf. "It
wasnt a great game, but it wasnt too bad," Ancelotti said. "I am satisfied. We
dont have to be worried." Also, Celta Vigo beat visiting Athletic Bilbao 1-0 to
take the advantage in their tie. Levante became the first topflight team to lose
to a lower-division opponent after falling 1-0 at Huelva Recreativo, while
Getafe drew 1-1 at second-division Girona. With various veteran stars injured or
restiing, it was a night for some of the more promising talents to shine in the
wins of Atletico and Celta.
Sandy Leon Team Venezuela Jersey. Atletico
coach Diego Simeone left strike duo Diego Costa and David Villa on the bench for
the first hour, opting for a starting 11 with just four regular starters and
featuring youngsters Oliver Torres and Javier Manquillo. It was still more than
enough to overpower Sant Andreu. "This team doesnt let up for any game," said
Manquillo, Atleticos promising 19-year-old right back. "We considered this cup
match was like any other and we always respect our rival, no matter who it is."
Raul Garcia almost scored just seconds into the match at the modest Narcis Sala
Stadium in Barcelonas northern suburbs. But he succeeded in the 13th after he
volleyed Filipe Luis out-swinging cross unmarked at the far post. Arda Turan
then slotted in Manquillos back pass in the 20th, and he scored again from a
series of tightly knit passes in the 56th that included two audacious
back-heeled flicks by Adrian Lopez and Garcia to set up the Turkey
international. Villa sealed the victory in the 84th from a pass by Diego Costa.
Celta Vigo also turned to a youth player to edge Bilbao in the days only matchup
between first-division teams. After both sides went close several times at
Balaidos Stadium, Celta striker Santiago Mina celebrated his 18th birthday by
scoring the follow-up of his own initial strike that Bilbao goalkeeper Iago
Herrerin did well to block but couldnt hold on to in the 71st. Celta 35-year-old
forward Mario Bermejo went on as a late substitute in his first action since
tearing his left knee ligament in May. Recreativo defender Ruyman Hernandez
headed in the winner one minute into stoppage time to down Levante. Getafe
forward Ciprian Marica used a bicycle kick to fire in a poor clearance in the
38th, cancelling out David Timors free kick that gave Girona the lead in the
16th.
