Connor Nock, a two-time Minto Cup champion, has set his sights on a future in the National Lacrosse League (NLL), with his hometown team, the Vancouver Warriors, now emerging as a serious option. Nock, a standout player for the Coquitlam Adanacs, has established himself as one of the top young talents in Canadian lacrosse. His back-to-back Minto Cup victories in 2022 and 2023 were a testament to his skill, leadership, and ability to perform under pressure, making him a prime candidate for the next level.

With the NLL’s growing interest in young players who can make an immediate impact, Nock’s transition to professional lacrosse seems like a natural progression. The Vancouver Warriors, who play in the NLL’s Western Division, are in need of fresh talent to strengthen their roster, and Nock’s versatility and offensive capabilities make him an ideal fit for the team.

Nock, who grew up watching the Warriors, has expressed a strong desire to represent his hometown in the NLL. His connection to Vancouver and his passion for the sport make the prospect of joining the Warriors especially meaningful. As the NLL continues to grow, with more teams and fans embracing the sport, Nock’s potential future with the Warriors would be a story of local talent rising to the professional ranks. While his professional career is just beginning, Nock’s success at the junior level has positioned him as one of the most promising young players to watch in the NLL’s future.
