Warriors combined with the SUNY Canton Men's Lacrosse Team as well as the SUNY Canton Women's Lacrosse Team in the wheelchairs doing drills and scrimmaging and having lunch with burgers from Glaziers, hot dogs and buns from Save a Lot, chips from A.W. Collins, and Water and Gator Aid from Pepsi of Ogdensburg. On Sunday the Mtn. Warriors and St. Lawrence Men's and Women's Lacrosse Teams played and had lunch, same menu as above.
