Lacrosse great Shawn Evans had a game for the ages Thursday night (August 20th), scoring 14 points—7 goals and 7 assists—in leading the Lakers to a 18-14 win over Six Nations Chiefs in Game 2 of the MLS Finals, and a 2-0 lead in the series.

The fan favourite had all 3,293 fans buzzing all night—and tweeting about his amazing performance.

Best @PtboLakersLax game I've seen to date. 18-14. @shawnevans1588 is a machine. Can't wait for Sunday.

The modest Evans raved about the fans and their support afterwards, but his good luck charm might well have been his 6-year-old daughter Paityn. Evans woke up to this yesterday and tweeted it out...
