Indeed, calourie.

They can make it work though.
Outside of the sloppiness, the O looks fluid & confident.
Let’s hope they don’t figure TD out any more than they did in the 3rd quarter. Final quarter to be a slugfest.

Game on...

With the weekend results nearly complete and an upset from Princeton over Virginia, you could say March 21st (Yale’s first home game) at Reese Stadium may just be a little more interesting, now. ***Yale made great improvements yesterday of sealing off O’Keefe. 2019 was riddled with ball-watching Ame...

A game of runs.
Yale needs to finish off this 3rd quarter and retain a lead.

Soph Thomas Bragg looking good.

Some first game rust, many turnovers and missed D assignments.

I think you saw it right, Mid-Lax.
All the more reason to head to Reese, for those March games. Ughhhhh.

Fairfield first.

Not sure if this is accurate, but it does say Providence.

Kudos to Virginia. Their strategy was similar to Yale’s, but they executed everything to perfection from the ride, to the double-teams on D, to clock management and conversion. Even if you could get through the D with that amount of pressure, there stood Rode in net. Their 10-man ride was great, esp...

I do feel like the Penn St. Penn and Yale side of the bracket was way better than the other side and that in a 7 game series all 3 of those teams would beat Duke and Virginia but we don't have a series we have one game and Virginia is more than good enough to beat Yale in a one off. I wouldn't bet ...

Duke was favored. Penn State was heavily favored. No one knows anything until they play the game. Duke was also ranked #2, for some reason. Meanwhile, one could argue Maryland could very easily be playing tomorrow against Yale. A blown call sorta crushed the spirits of those Maryland seniors and al...

I’ll take the 1st quarter.
2nd quarter not so much.

Collectively, the team came out in force and now it’s time to regroup. No doubt, Shay will get them dialed in.
Penn State will not go away, so let’s see some composure and senior leadership.

Let’s make a stop!

Good day for Cpt Dannegelis thus far. That’s grit!

:cry: Yale has lost 3 games by a point. Yale has won 2 games by a point. They have never played from behind, until today. Down the stretch, they will be a handful. Starr is coming on like 2018. Dannegelis, El Capitan, played quite gritty today - on both ends. I’ll resurface what I had mentioned week...

Glad you enjoyed. Yeah, change the plane. We hear it until our ears bleed. That being said, Jack Tigh had much success early in the Championship Game on two consecutive high-to-high shots, both on right alley dodges. So sometimes, only sometimes does it work if placement or luck is on your side. :lo...

ML - you pay for parking at Reese?
The last few games I’ve seen zero cars in the street, but nobody has been collecting. Suppose if you go around the bowl and do that whole thing, yeah. Just pull up and do the ole Obi-Wan.

...people seem to forget that Conor Mackie was an excellent FOGO last year, 3rd Team All American who held his own against TD. Finally, Fann surfaces the great Connor Mackie and the transition to TD. TD is fantastic, many teams would have loved and benefited from him transferring anywhere, but Yale...

For anyone who doesn't have ESPN+ (sigh), and prefers not to follow Twitter, the Princeton site is quite informative.
Lots of turnovers for Yale thus far.

Headed down after I read that UMASS was up 3-1. Nearly out of hand at 8-3, but Yale dug in. Great dives to the end lines saving possessions over and over - a bulldog hallmark. Sessa with a wonderful stick check late in the 4th, that ended up being called a push. UMass would tie it up on what appeare...

Yale/Umass Game has been moved to 3:00, I believe.

Yale/Umass Game has been moved to 3:00, I believe.

Sticks were flying, more aggression, and cleaner play. Yes, TD won the day. Was good to see Rooney back in the mix, with a goal, albeit a little gimpy. Brandau came on strong the 2nd half, with a key ground ball late. Really great coaching and adjustment after the 1st quarter. Team buckled down as w...
