Maryland to be home of Premier Lacrosse League’s Whipsnakes as league moves to new model

Maryland is home once again to professional lacrosse. For the first time since 2020 when the Major League Lacrosse’s Chesapeake Bayhawks played games at Navy-Marine Corps Memorial Stadium in Annapolis, the sport will set up shop in the state after Tuesday afternoon’s announcement that the Premier Lacrosse League will base its Whipsnakes franchise in Maryland. The Maryland Whipsnakes, as the team will be rebranded, will operate out of the state next summer. A venue will be announced Jan. 1 when the PLL schedule is released.
