Colorado Mammoth transition player Nenad Gajic will have microfracture surgery to repair an injured ankle, the National Lacrosse League team announced Wednesday. The second-year player from Nebraska-Omaha finished with a goal and an assist in all five games this season.
Gajic will be replaced on the roster by Tim Booth.
Also, Mammoth’s Tyler Crompton earned NLL rookie-of-the-week honors after scoring two goals in Saturday’s win over Calgary.
Rapids sign two.
The Rapids signed forward Omar Cummings and defender Ugo Ihemelu to four-year contracts. Cummings was the team’s second-leading scorer in 2008. Ihemelu started 16 of the 18 matches.
