Whether they play out of Port Coquitlam or Port Moody, it doesn't matter to the Bandits.
They just keep winning.
Gunning to become the first West Coast Sr. 'B' lacrosse league team to win a fourth straight provincial crown, the Bandits beat the Royal City Capitals 8-6 Monday in the pair's regular-season opener at Port Moody Rec Complex. The Bandits formerly played out of PoCo Rec Centre before shifting their home ground to PoMo this season.
Bandits captain Darren McEwen zipped in back-to-back goals midway through the third to cap his hattrick and tie the game 5-5 and, after the Capitals once again went ahead, Justin Hawksbee knotted the count 6-6 on a great close-in effort.
Shortly after, Rob Brommer then struck for the winner with Hawksbee adding an insurance tally late. Chad Miller made 41 saves in the Bandits' net.
