It appears there will be an NLL season after the first two weeks were canceled a little over a week ago according to the Professional Lacrosse Players Association (PLPA.)
In a tweet early Saturday evening the PLPA announced the players have voted to approve the tentative agreement that was announced Friday evening.
#PLPA members have by majority vote ratified the tentatively approved deal reached by the PLPA & #NLL. We thank the Player Reps for their commitment & their fellow Players for supporting the Exec. Committee during these negotiations. Thanks fans for your support! #letsplaylax
