Utah Archers vs Carolina Chaos Injury Report & Key Players
Utah Archers Team News
Tom Schreiber enters the weekend on the brink of a milestone—just one goal away from tying Kevin Buchanan for 21st all-time in PLL scoring with 202 career tallies. The veteran midfielder continues to cement his legacy with every outing.
However, the Archers are battling the injury bug. Mac O'Keefe is listed as questionable, while Matt Moore and Mike Sisselberger remain sidelined on injured reserve. Devon McLane has also been ruled out, thinning Utah's attack options.
Carolina Chaos Team News
On the Chaos side, they’ll be without midfielders Chris Aslanian and Shane Knobloch, both on IR. As a result, rookies Owen Hiltz and Jackson Eicher have been sharing time on the attack line. Interestingly, their shift rotation is based on stick preference—Hiltz is strictly a lefty, with 19 shots from that side and none from the right, while Eicher mirrors him with 36 right-handed shots and zero lefty attempts.
