New York Riptide Acquire Brent Noseworthy From Buffalo Bandits In Trade

Uniondale, NY (March 14, 2022) – The New York Riptide have acquired defense/transition Brent Noseworthy and a 2022 fourth round pick from the Buffalo Bandits in exchange for a 2024 first round pick, the team announced today. The deal is pending league approval.

Noseworthy was selected in the first round (12th Overall) of the 2019 NLL Entry Draft by the Bandits. A graduate of the University of Michigan, Noseworthy has played in 15 career NLL games, scoring five points on a goal and four assists, scooping 35 loose balls and causing four turnovers.

“We have heard nothing but good things about Brent and the competitive edginess he plays with,” Riptide General Manager Jim Veltman said. “We are bigger and better with him in our lineup.”

At the collegiate ranks, Noseworthy was a 2018-19 USILA Academic All-American, the first player in program history with 100 career goals and ended his career at Michigan as the all-time leader in goals scored (102.)
