University of Virginia stars continue to dominate the MLL’s post-season awards. Former Cavalier and current Boston Cannons attackman John Christmas has been honored as the 2006 Warrior Most Improved Player. The award was based on votes submitted by the General Manager of each of the 10 MLL teams. Christmas, along with other MLL honorees will be acknowledged at the 2006 Major League Lacrosse Awards Luncheon.
Christmas, a second-year player, has shown tremendous improvement from last year to this. As a rookie last season, Christmas scored five goals and added three assists for eight points and finished the season as the team’s eighth leading scorer. Christmas was relegated to role player due to playing behind a star studded lineup that included league Co-MVP Mark Millon and Kevin Leveille, who notched 39 goals last year.
