One win away.
That’s how close the Saskatchewan Rush are to securing their second National Lacrosse League championship in as many years.
The green and black entered hostile territory in Buffalo, and took game one 11-9 in front of a sold out crowd at the Niagara Center.
The Rush worked behind forward Robert Church and his five-point night, sealing the victory with three unanswered goals in the fourth quarter.
