The PLL Week 10 schedule packs five games into Friday and Saturday, with Denver’s Homecoming weekend putting the Outlaws, Archers and Waterdogs on double duty as the playoff race tightens, according to ESPN.
ESPN reported that fans can watch the games through the ESPN App and the PLL streaming hub. The league’s Week 10 notes, cited by ESPN, also point to major individual races, a few injury-hit rosters and one very busy weekend in Colorado.
What is the PLL Week 10 schedule?
- Utah Archers vs. Denver Outlaws, Friday, 8 p.m. ET, ESPN+
- Philadelphia Waterdogs vs. New York Atlas, Friday, 10:30 p.m. ET, ESPN+
- Boston Cannons vs. Carolina Chaos, Saturday, 2 p.m. ET
- Maryland Whipsnakes vs. Utah Archers, Saturday, 6:30 p.m. ET
- Philadelphia Waterdogs vs. Denver Outlaws, Saturday, 9 p.m. ET
Utah enters its first game at 4-4, while ESPN’s matchup preview lists Denver at 4-3. The Archers and Outlaws both have four wins going into the weekend, but Utah owns a plus-22 score differential compared with Denver’s plus-10, according to the PLL stats cited by ESPN.
Denver gets a goalie duel and a new midfielder
The Friday opener comes with a crease-to-crease spotlight. Utah goalie Brett Dobson is in the Jim Brown MVP Award conversation, according to ESPN, and only Greg Cattrano in 2002 and Blaze Riorden in 2021 have won the award as goalies.
Dobson is also the reigning NLL MVP. ESPN noted that if he wins the PLL or MLL honor in the same year, he would join John Grant Jr., who did it in 2007, and would be the first goalie to pull off that double.
Denver has its own hot hand in goal. Logan McNaney leads the league with a 60.7% clean save percentage, and ESPN reported that maintaining that mark would top his own record in the category.
The Outlaws also expect midfielder John Dunphey to debut this weekend after joining the team on June 1. ESPN reported that Denver is looking for more scoring beyond Logan Wisnauskas, Jared Bernhardt, Pat Kavanagh and Brennan O’Neill, with the rest of the team shooting 20.0%.
Waterdogs, Atlas and a playoff squeeze
Philadelphia opens against New York before facing Denver on Saturday night. Waterdogs attacker CJ Kirst has 21 goals through five games, putting him within range of the single-season leaders cited by ESPN: Marcus Holman with 30 in 2023, Connor Fields with 28 in 2023 and Jeff Teat with 28 in 2024.
Gavin Adler will also see familiar colors on the other side. ESPN reported that the reigning Dave Pietramala Defensive Player of the Year won that award with the 2025 champion Atlas before signing with Philadelphia in the offseason.
New York, listed at 3-5 in ESPN’s matchup preview, is reshuffling after the release of Matt Rambo. ESPN reported that Reid Bowering, Hunter Drouin and Levi Anderson will be used in a three-man plan at lefty attack.
Saturday brings records, injuries and pressure
Boston’s Marcus Holman sits at 378 career goals, putting John Grant Jr.’s 393 within reach, according to ESPN. The Cannons meet a Carolina team missing defenseman Jack Rowlett, who was placed on injured reserve after a collision last week in Fairfield and is expected to be out four to six weeks.
Maryland’s TJ Malone is chasing a rare two-handed scoring pace. ESPN reported that he has eight right-handed goals and 11 left-handed goals, and could become the first player since Paul Rabil in 2015 to average one goal per game with each hand.
For Philadelphia’s second game, the Waterdogs are set to turn to undrafted rookie goalie Sean Byrne after Matt DeLuca went on injured reserve with a left hip injury. ESPN reported that veteran Tim Troutner was signed this week as the backup.
