The Victoria Shamrocks of the Western Lacrosse Association announce they have acquired James Cadwallader from the Coquitlam Adanacs in exchange their third round pick in the 2011 WLA Draft.
Cadwallader, a 23 year-old Victoria native, was drafted by the Adanacs in the 2008 WLA Draft but never reported to them. With the Junior Shamrocks from 2005 until 2007, the 6’ 1”, 210 pound lefthander appeared in 75 regular season and playoff games in which he scored 11 goals and added 41 assists for 52 points along with 141 minutes in penalties. In 2009, he played 10 regular season and playoff games with the Nanaimo Senior B Timbermen in which he scored three goals and added three assists for six points along with 10 minutes in penalties.
“Caddy has the potential to be a very good Senior A player,” said Shamrocks general manager Chris Welch. “He’s big and strong and plays with a bit of an edge. He’s also a very good all-around athlete.” In addition to lacrosse, Cadwallader also plays Division 1 soccer for Gorge United FC in the Vancouver Island Soccer League.
This is the fourth trade the Shamrocks have made recently involving young Victoria players. “Caddy joins Brock Armour, Matt Flindell, Kory Kowalyk, Mike Pires and Matt Yager in the group of Victoria guys we have traded for in the last few weeks and we also picked up Rhys Jones in the draft” said Welch. “The future of the Shamrocks is looking very bright.”
