Don’t liken Brian Langtry to a fine wine.
Cheesy as it sounds, it’d be more apt to compare the Denver Outlaws midfielder to a new-model digital camera.
It’s not that Langtry has gotten better with age. It’s that he has an expanded focus and a better view of the big picture. And that’s how the 32-year-old enters the Major League Lacrosse All-Star Game Thursday night at Invesco Field at Mile High (8 p.m., ESPN2) tied for second in the league scoring race in what largely is a younger man’s game.
“I have refocused quite a bit,” said Langtry, the oldest of the 27 players on the Outlaws roster and one of seven Denver All-Stars. “I think I am seeing the game better, and I think I can keep doing it if I stay in shape. I just started a pretty intense program of running this week. It’s the first time I have really pushed myself in years.”
The results have shown on the field, where Langtry has compiled 36 points in helping the Outlaws to a Western Conference-best 6-3 mark.
