Toronto Rock captain Colin Doyle leads this week’s Three Star Challenge leaderboard, edging out the Rochester Knighthawks’ John Grant after his Rock manhandled Grant and the K’Hawks last week at the ACC with a 17-3 spanking. The two were tied at the top of the charts last week.

Rock rookie Garrett Billings, who’s on pace to smash a couple offensive rookie scoring records, as well as the off-season moved Ryan Ward and Lewis Ratcliff, round out the top five after three weeks of lacrosse in the books. After the jump, check out who else lands in our early leaderboard, and check back Monday for Week 4’s Three Star nods.
