The New York Riptide on Monday announced a multiyear agreement with Nassau Coliseum to keep the National Lacrosse League team as the venerable arena’s primary tenant.
“Our organization is proud to continue our long-term commitment to Long Island and, specifically, the growth of the game at the grassroots level,” Riptide executive vice president Rich Lisk said.
The Riptide will play nine home games during their third season in the NLL, starting on Dec. 3 against San Diego.
