LaxPower Back-Up Stick

I thought Sam Ricci looked good on the few Face Offs he took in the 4th Quarter on Saturday. I’m not sure if it was the same FOGO from Dartmouth. Not sure why coaches haven’t tried him more in other games to see if style/matchup is an advantage as well rest for Psyllos. Thinking we may see him give...

Ok, I'll play. I'll take Goldstein's dad over Duffy's dad.

Congrats Big Red!

Def never seen 3 total goals in last 20 secs of regulation, crazy.

Never seen a coach ejected and escorted out.

Cornell had some really nice assisted goals. Blake's cross field pass to Long on goal 11 was one of them.

Sure, it could be, but I think most agree that the problem has been at the other end of the field. Cornells offense and attack is so deep, that some players are simply going to have to wait their turn or play out of position. Firth being a freshman has made the adjustment incredibly well. Gobigred ...

Speaking of faceoffs, I was thinking about how Petrakis is one of those guys who seems like he's been around forever. I think he got some playing time as a freshman before COVID and then has contributed each year since then. FOGO can be a pretty thankless role unless you're really good, but Petraki...

At the risk of simply stating the obvious, the Cornell/Denver match-up is a serious early season challenge for the Big Red. Between Denver's home field advantage, Denver's altitude, and the Pioneers' added two games of experience, this will not be an easy test for the Cornell. Massey puts the game ...

I heard the game was moved to Saturday, Oct 21. Best check if planning to attend.

Interesting that Willem Firth, Hill Academy Offensive Player of the Year in 2022 and 2023 was given Teat's #51 by Cornell.

Finalists announced: Tucker Dordevic, Georgetown - Grad. Student, Attack Pat Kavanagh, Notre Dame - Sr., Attack CJ Kirst, Cornell - Jr., Attack Brennan O'Neill, Duke - Jr., Attack Connor Shellenberger, Virginia - Sr., Attack All attackmen, no defensemen. Usual Tewey BS. This award is unnecessary. U...

Let's not look too far ahead. I remember 2008. Cornell #8 seed (11-3) with Max Seibald, John Glynn, Ryan Hurly got thumped (15-7) in NCAA 1st round at Schoellkopf by Ohio State, then coached by Joe Breschi. I do believe Buczek and Stevens will have the team ready to play but certainly no gimme. Go B...

Important game vs Brown today. I hope Cornell laxers show up with energy and focus. Go Big Red!

2:00 10-10 Army ball
1;11 10-10 Cornell ball.

@joewillie78

I'm hoping to get to the game. See you at the 50 if I do.

How about having to go all the way out to Game Farm Road now to watch Baseball as old Hoy Field is about to become another ugly monstrous building. I loved Hoy and watching players hit bombs into the Parking Garage. Gobigred Joewillie78 Back when I worked on campus, I would take a late lunch on a s...

Don't forget to tune in ESPN at 7PM Eastern to see if Vito & Yianni can win National Championships in wrestling. GO BIG RED! They both won! Yianni is now just the 5th man ever to win 4 NCAA wrestling championships, Cornell's Kyle Dake being one of the other 4. Yes, congratulations to those two ...

Hopefully the coaches and players now understand the faceoff issues and can fix them. Shouldn't be too difficult if it's just procedural prior to the actual faceoff, no?

... and getting the late two minute penalty while trying to run down the clock is very concerning an That penalty was as ugly as it was stupid. A stick to the face/head of an unhelmeted opponent is never a good look, and especially following up on a slash to the back of his head. Physical play is o...
