Sure would be a lot easier if it was mostly about the numbers. Just assign a value to each stat, compile them and award the trophy. But then how do you weigh and compare numbers of dissimilar positions (goalie, defense and offense)? And what about effort that can't be assigned a number such as effec...

Dang TL, and I was so looking forward to a shot at adding to my account!

But don’t they pick the top 5 on May 9th? Good point! I was getting ahead of myself. As a great man once said "google first, post second". I amend my post: top 5 (8); Apuzzo, Ortega, Hawryschuk or Lasota, Giles and or Taylor and or Arsenault/Kent. Yeah I know that totals 8 but I think the...

Anyone but Maryland. I am really tired of seeing them win most all of the time. That's what non Northwestern (the evil empire) fans were saying during their run. So if you have this type of sentiment prevailing you're usually doing something right. Niccolo Machiavelli. "It is better to be fear...

Not the first time I've misread a post and I'm sure not the last. Anybody know a good way to season crow?

Ok, so it’s the state of Maryland invitational not the University of Maryland’s. Got it but trying to figure out how it’s unfair. Most conferences rotate hosting duties each year.

- BC/Louisville; Gee I wonder! - UVA/Orange; I'm bucking the trend and picking the Hoos. Syracuse has looked susceptible down the stretch, squeeking by a few teams and getting pounded by Carolina. Yes I know they won the first UVA game by 5 goals but that was then, this is now. - UNC/VATech; Althoug...

I've ranted about this ever since free movement was born. In essence the player fouling is rewarded by stopping a fast break. Everybody gets to advance except the fouled player. Some refs will allow a play on and others blow the whistle and I'm not sure what causes the difference (maybe some referee...

Seacoaster, you're correct, Byrd stadium. Now everybody enhances revenues with naming rights.

Seacoaster, The field hockey and lacrosse complex is closed for renovations. All home games are played at Capital One Field (the football stadium). While this venue offers better amenities (more seating, replays on the jumbotron, etc.), it is cavernous and you are further away from the action. I kno...

OK, it's doable. I'd love to see a resurgent Michigan. I'd love to see the Buckeyes improve as well. A strong league toughens up the competition for the big show at the end.

#7 Michigan at #2 Maryland 5pm BTN Network MARYLAND, BUT WITH A RESPECTABLE SCORE FOR MICHIGAN, WHICH KEEPS ME GUESSING HOW GOOD MICHIGAN REALLY IS

Seacoaster,
just curious as to your idea of a respectable score?

DMAC,
At least the game from where that video originated had a favorable outcome , unlike last year

Just to add to Seacoaster's observations, to me one thing that's unmistakable about Sam Apuzzo's play, that doesn't always show up in the offense's stat sheets, is her compete level, it's off the charts and jumps right off the screen at you. It shows up in the draw circle, on the redefend, when atta...

They were complaining about flopping and I think they had a good case. I saw number 20 ​for JHU ​doing a good bit of acting from my vantage point. ​She reminded me of a certain player--(but we won't go there).

I have no clue of who you are alluding to.

Trap game for the Terps coming off an easy win against JMU with Princeton's head scratching loss to Brown. Doesn't help missing Caroline Steele from the lineup.

NJBill, DrT, DMAC sorry for the late reply but this is my first opportunity. All your points are well taken and for anybody who's seen enough of the women's game knows that participants often embellish the affects of body contact. I don't know if it's taught or just learned behavior but consider wha...

Wlaxnut, thanks for posting these clips. It’s really convenient to be able to click on them and watch a controversial play and draw our own conclusions about it. Beats the heck out of wading through 3,600 seconds of film to find a play.t Bingo! you're getting the view selected for you. Look at thes...

Whew! Erica doesn't know how close she came to being branded! Hey laxnut you've got to tell me how you do it. Take clips from a game and post them on youtube. What you have is the perfect propaganda tool. Post 5 to 10 second clips of a 3,600 second game to court peoples opinions to your own. The pos...
