Lakers welcome Rippberger and McCormick through territorial protection

For the third season in a row, the Lakers took the opportunity to welcome two local juniors to the organization in advance of the WLA Draft. Goaltender Marc Rippberger and offensive player Joel McCormick were chosen based on their performance with the rising Junior Lakers throughout the junior careers. Rippberger plays for the Seaspray as part of the Arena Lacrosse League and McCormick is a member of Robert Morris University Lacrosse team.
