Pardosa I'd guess
The choices for MB appear to be P. concinna, P. distincta, P. dromaea, P. furcifera, P. fuscula, P. glacialis, P. groenlandica, P. hyperborea, P. lapponica, P. mackenziana, P. modica, P. moesta, P. mulaiki, P. ontariensis, P. podhorskii, P. saxatilis, P. tesquorum, P. uintana & P. xerampelina.

It does look a lot like

I think Larry's spider looks more like a female than a male, and so maybe P. fuscula is a better possibility - but, I wouldn't want to commit to that ID without checking the epigyne. I find it tricky to recognize some Pardosa species by general appearance, because older spiders often have fewer body hairs (they get rubbed off or lost) and so look different from younger adults of the same species.
