 | This is the sandbox page where you will draft your initial Wikipedia contribution.
If you're starting a new article, you can develop it here until it's ready to go live. If you're working on improvements to an existing article, copy only one section at a time of the article to this sandbox to work on, and be sure to use an edit summary linking to the article you copied from. Do not copy over the entire article. You can find additional instructions here. Remember to save your work regularly using the "Publish page" button. (It just means 'save'; it will still be in the sandbox.) You can add bold formatting to your additions to differentiate them from existing content. |

[edit]Since setting their "Homecoming Weekend" to the Harvard Stadium, the Cannons have performed well with two repeating 7-3 records in 2023 and 2024, a noticeable increase from their 3-6 record in 2022.[1] However, they have yet to win the championship since establishing their home city, being bounced in the playoffs in the semi-final by the Philadelphia Waterdogs 17-6 in 2023 and by the Carolina Chaos 8-4 in the 2024 quarterfinals.[1] (already edited into the article) The Boston Cannons became the first team to go back to back in winning the Championship Series, defeating the Utah Archers 21-14 with Matt Campbell leading the way on offense with 8 points (7G, 1A).[2] Campbell also won the Golden Stick Award for the most points (23 points) over the course of the series. Colin Kirst also set a record for the most saves during the 6v6 tournament, 72.[3]
The 2025 PLL season begins on May 30, 2025 in Albany, NY. However, the Cannons don't begin their 2025 campaign until the next day, May 31, against the New York Atlas.[4]
