The Chesapeake Bayhawks announced today that they have signed John Wagner for the 2020 season."John joined the flock halfway through the season, but wasted no time in contributing," said Bayhawks Head Coach,. "In his rookie season he showed a lot of promise, he has the potential to develop into in an elite player and we look forward to his growth in year two."John was called up for his first game of the MLL season when the Hawks faced the Lizards on July 20, 2019. Steele Stanwick was unavailable for the game, so Wagner was brought in to one of the highest performing attack units. In his first game, Wagner contributed 2 assists. Throughout the 11 games played, including the semifinal and championship games, Wager delivered 10 goals and 4 assists across the season.Before joining the Bayhawks Wagner was a standout attackman for Marquette. He was a 2x team captain, 2x All-Big EAST, BIG EAST Scholar-Athlete Sport Excellence Award recipient, Ralph H. Metcalfe Senior Male Athletics Award recipient and All-BIG EAST Champion."I am just looking forward to getting the 2020 season started," said Wagner. "I learned a lot last year, I had a great time playing with and learning from Lyle, Steele and all the other guys. I am working hard right now to get ready for the season, and I look forward to building from where we left off in 2019."For more information on the Bayhawks' 2020 season, or to purchase tickets, visit the Bayhawks at www.thebayhawks.com , or call 410-934-0456.
