It took Dan Cannon a little while to get used to the collegiate game of lacrosse after growing up in Ontario, playing indoor lacrosse for most of his life before entering Lycoming in 2004. In his first two years, he scored just 12 goals, but as a junior, with a new coach, Brian Anken, and a high-flying offensive style, Cannon transformed into one of the top players in the MAC. He posted 29 goals and 18 assists in a breakthrough year, finishing sixth in the league and earning Second Team All-MAC honors, setting up one of the most remarkable finales to a men's lacrosse career in school history. He led all Division III players in points per game at 5.69 in 2008, notching 47 goals and 44 assists in 16 games while leading the Warriors to a second-place finish in the MAC. His 91 points are still the second-most in a season in Lycoming history and helped him earn First Team All-MAC honors and four MAC Offensive Player of the Week honors. He finished his career in the top 10 in school history in six statistical categories and is in the top 10 in eight single-season categories. He also posted 10 points in a game three times and also notched eight assists in a game against DeSales, the second-best mark in school history. After the season, he played in the USILA North-South All-Star Game and was invited to the National Lacrosse League combine. A member of the MAC Century Team, Cannon is an assistant men's lacrosse coach at Guelph University in Ontario.
