Where to watch National Lacrosse League finals: Schedule, TV channels, live streams for 2025 NLL championship

6 hours ago 1

The top seeds made quick and easy work of their semifinal opponents, punching their ticket to the National Lacrosse League finals.

The Buffalo Bandits remain the team to beat as they seek a coveted three-peat. They won the 2023 and 2024 championships, tying themselves for the most NLL titles in history (six). It's also the fourth consecutive year the Bandits reached the championships, having lost in 2022.

Meanwhile, the Rush return to the title match for the first time since 2018. The franchise had an impressive four-year stretch, as well. The Rush won in 2015, 2016 and 2018 but lost in 2017. They also lost in 2012.

A fourth championship would separate the Rush from the Roughnecks and Colorado Mammoth, who both gave three titles. Only the Bandits, FireWolves, Rock and Thunderbirds have more championships.
