Wes Berg fuels comeback in Philly and Jack Hannah and the Mammoth win in the Loud House

DENVER – On the final weekend of preseason for NCAA Lacrosse, six former Pios combined for 29 points in Week 9 of the 2026 National Lacrosse League season.
 
San Diego trailed 5-1 with under six minutes to play in the first quarter before a pair of assists from Wes Berg woke up the Seals offense and San Diego pulled off the comeback by a count of 9-7. Berg had a goal and three assists, Trevor Baptiste went 12-for-20 with six loose balls and Danny Logan picked up a pair of loose balls. Berg had the primary assist on the final goal with 5:23 to play.
 
The other game of the week for the #ProPios took place downtown inside the Loud House at Ball Arena. Alex Simmons' marked his homecoming with a 10-point night on four goals and six assists, earning goal contributions on 10 of Oshawa's 11 goals. Jack Hannah only scored once, but had six helpers to lead the Mammoth to the home court win 15-11.
