Former Broncos athletic therapist Neal Demmans is a National Lacrosse League champion.

Halfway through this past season the Delisle product was summoned from Humboldt to join the Saskatchewan Rush as their therapist.

He said it was an amazing season with the province's newest sporting heart throbs.

"It was awesome, it was crazy, it was exciting, it was hectic. It was just really, really full of emotions. I've been around pro sports before, I've never really been 'the guy' for the pro sports so it was really cool to be part of that and be part of the guys."

Last Saturday night the Rush won their second straight NLL title, this being their first year in Saskatchewan. Since arriving the team has become the province's newest sports craze second only to the Riders. In fact during the season they set a new record for attendance at a sporting event at Saskatoon's Sasktel Centre.

"Saturday night, wow, that was nuts," Demmans explained of game two in the best-of-three NLL final versus the Buffalo Bandits. "That was a nail biter right from the start. I feel like we could have taken the game away at certain points but we didn't and that made it that much more stressful. That Buffalo team, you can't give them an inch."

The Rush actually trailed for most of the game but Jeff Cornwall scored on a breakaway with 12 seconds left to send the arena into bedlam.

"He has the breakaway," Demmans described. "I'm standing up on the bench, my arms are already up in the air, I'm waiting to just start cheering. All he needed to do was put it in the net and one fake, two fakes in the net. that was it, the crowd erupted, it was something yup."

The Delisle product was with the Broncos for a season and a half.
