DENVER - The Colorado Mammoth has signed two University of Denver alumni, re-signing one of its top defensive stoppers, Tom Ethington, and agreeing to terms with dispersal draftee Matt Brown.
Ethington, a 6-foot-3, 215-pound native of Glenview, Ill., agreed to a two-year deal. He was selected 81st overall by the Mammoth in the 2002 National Lacrosse League entry draft after four seasons with the Denver Pioneers. After stints on the practice squad and seeing limited regular-season playing time, Ethington became a regular contributor to the Mammoth defensive corps in 2006. He continued to grow into his role as one of the most athletic defenseman in the game last season and earned a spot on Team USA for the World Indoor Lacrosse Championship tournament.
