Canisius College men's lacrosse standout Tim Edwards became the latest Griff to earn selection in the National Lacrosse League Draft as the four-time all-conference honoree at Canisius was picked in the fourth round – 36th overall – by the Buffalo Bandits on Monday.

Just the second player in school history to earn All-MAAC accolades in each of his four seasons with the Griffs, Edwards finished his collegiate career ranked eighth in school history with 145 career points, fourth with 80 career assists and third with a .558 faceoff percentage.

The Jamesville, New York native played a key role on campus right from the start. The 2012 MAAC Rookie of the Year, Edwards scored the game-winning goal in the conference's title game as a freshman, helping lead the Griffs to their second NCAA Tournament appearance in school history. Overall, Edwards was named to the All-MAAC First Team in 2013, 2014 and 2015 after earning second-team distinction as a rookie.

During his senior campaign, Edwards led the Griffs in points (30), assists (13), ground balls (70), faceoff percentage (.528) and caused turnovers by a short-stick player (8). He set career highs as a junior in points (44), assists (29) and in faceoff percentage (.611), ranking eighth nationally at the faceoff X.

With Edwards selection on Tuesday, Canisius has now had at least one player selected in eight of the previous 13 drafts – including six players who were picked in the first round.
