The final game of Week 6 and the ULAX regular season featured a pivotal matchup between Bronx Lacrosse and Lock Jaw, with playoff seeding on the line heading into next week's postseason. Both teams knew the importance of the contest, setting the stage for an intense finish to the regular season. Lock Jaw came out with plenty of energy and determination, looking to make an early statement. However, Bronx Lacrosse entered the game already warmed up after playing the first game of a doubleheader earlier in the evening. That extra time on the field showed immediately, as Bronx came out sharp on both ends of the field and quickly built a commanding lead. Bronx Lacrosse looked every bit like a team ready for the playoffs. Their offense moved the ball with confidence, created quality scoring opportunities, and finished efficiently, while the defense limited Lock Jaw's chances and controlled the pace of the game from start to finish. To their credit, Lock Jaw never stopped competing. They continued to battle for every ground ball, challenged every possession, and left everything on the field despite facing a difficult deficit. Their effort and physical play kept the intensity high throughout the contest. When the final whistle sounded, Bronx Lacrosse secured a convincing 14-5 victory to close out the regular season. The win gave Bronx valuable momentum heading into the playoffs and reinforced their status as one of the league's top championship contenders, while Lock Jaw will look to regroup and carry its competitive spirit into the postseason.

The third game of Week 6 featured a makeup contest between Bronx Lacrosse and Bay Ridge after their scheduled matchup the previous week was postponed due to weather. Despite the delay, both teams came ready to compete in a game that was tightly contested from start to finish. Bay Ridge, playing in the second game of a doubleheader, looked sharp from the opening faceoff. Already settled into the flow of the evening, they came out with plenty of energy and confidence, jumping out to an early lead with aggressive play on both ends of the field. Bronx Lacrosse, meanwhile, took a few minutes to find its rhythm after entering the game cold. Once they settled in, however, they began to take control through disciplined defense, patient offensive possessions, and timely finishing around the cage. Their composure allowed them to erase the early deficit before eventually taking the lead midway through the game. From there, Bronx Lacrosse never looked back. Their defense tightened up, limiting Bay Ridge's scoring chances, while the offense continued to capitalize on key opportunities to steadily extend the advantage. Bay Ridge battled until the final whistle and showed plenty of determination despite playing its second game of the night, but Bronx Lacrosse's experience and balanced team play proved to be the difference. When the game came to an end, Bronx Lacrosse secured an 8-4 victory, overcoming a slow start to earn another hard-fought win in the ULAX summer season.

The second game of Week 6 featured Bronx Science taking on Bay Ridge in a matchup that highlighted just how much Bronx Science has improved throughout the ULAX summer season. Bronx Science entered the game with confidence, powered by one of the league's most dominant faceoff specialists, and once again showed the grit and determination that have become their identity. Bay Ridge, however, refused to back down. They came out with great energy and were rewarded with a beautifully executed goal that gave their sideline plenty of excitement and hope early in the contest. From that point on, Bronx Science took control. Their faceoff dominance led to extra possessions, allowing the offense to settle into a rhythm and steadily build a lead. Strong team defense and disciplined play prevented Bay Ridge from generating many quality scoring opportunities, while Bronx Science continued to capitalize on its chances at the other end. Although the scoreboard favored Bronx Science, Bay Ridge competed with heart until the final whistle, continuing to show the determination and effort that has defined their season. When the game came to an end, Bronx Science secured a convincing 10-1 victory.

The Risk Takers struck first to gain an early advantage, but scoring opportunities were hard to come by thanks to excellent performances from both goalkeepers. Every save seemed to keep the momentum within reach, making each possession even more valuable. The faceoff battle was evenly matched throughout the game, with both specialists trading wins and helping their teams generate quality offensive possessions.
