Gnote Posted July 9, 2015 Report Posted July 9, 2015 Thats pretty cool man! My buddys uncle played for the rock for a long time, he either used to or still does hold the record for loose balls which always made me laugh.
Rodbender Posted July 9, 2015 Author Report Posted July 9, 2015 (edited) I played with scoop (Veltman) in minor lacrosse in Brampton his brother John too Edited July 9, 2015 by Rodbender
wormdunker Posted July 9, 2015 Report Posted July 9, 2015 Awesome to see your report! You must be very proud of your father playing along side such greats as Bob McCready, Gaylord Powless. A high school friend of mine (John Mouradian) also played lacrosse in that era. He played with the Buffalo Bandits, played & also coached the Toronto Rock. Last news I heard of Johnny was he was in Phoenix as part owner, general manager. Do you know of his whereabouts?

Mike Pike Posted July 10, 2015 Report Posted July 10, 2015 That's pretty cool, Rodbender. I wonder if I ever watched your Dad play. I used to watch Pro Lacrosse when I was a kid at that time. It used to be televised, but I think the name of the team was the Toronto Shooting Stars, not the Tomahawks.
