Congrats Lehigh... nice team! Unsportsmanlike call on Perfetto leading to Lehigh goal was ridiculous. Good job ref. So let me get this right. Lehigh can chirp at Perfetto all game from the sidelines and Perfetto gestures at them to keep it coming after a call and that's a 1 minute locked in unsport...

Bring on the tournament! Any predictions? Loyola over Navy BU over Colgate Army over Loyola BU over Lehigh Army over Lehigh How is Lehigh playing in the finals if you have BU beating them in the semis? :D Should be a great tournament. I think I read that only one team has won the tournament when th...

"Resigned"? Pretty sure most can read between the lines and he was forced out. It's 1 week after the Albany incident and Merrimack still has a game to play after qualifying for their conference tourney. No way Morgan bails on his team with a game left. Then share the information that says...

I don't think they will if they dominate in the second half. That's certainly not a given at this point though. Checked the box score. Army pulled their goalie and #2 didn't help. Total save % was about 35%. Did they have "one of those games "or was BU on fire? BU finally looked like team...

Agreed. I can't see BU generating a ton of offense in settled six on six situations. They need the ten man and to be very efficient on man up if and when the opportunities present.

I'd love to see a close game but BU is at a huge disadvantage at the X and has gotten very little out of their middies not running on the 1st line. Also, I'd expect Pilate to give whoever he covers (D'Alto or Perfetto) a really hard time and too many points come from just those two. That being said,...

Loyola and Navy are going to have a lot to say about this... Colgate also should be improved. Should be a fun year in the PL!

BU has most of their seniors back judging by the guys not being in the transfer portal (D'Alto, Perfetto, Meyer, Niedringhaus, Morrison, Calderone). They should be very strong but need to replace Ley at attack and Garber in goal.

I guess we know how good BU is Took it to Harvard BU looked good tonight. Solid defense, great goalie, and at times the offense was really crisp. They will be a tough test for the Hounds. BU might want to rethink that 10-man ride though. Harvard's goalie had 1 goal on 2 shots. :shock: Bu always let...

After watching them play Bucknell just now, yes as of today BU is not in the conversation. I’ve watched a lot of BU lacrosse and haven’t seen them this inconsistent for 4 quarters like they are this year. I think they’re playing down to competition a little and I agree, we won’t know much until we ...

Looking at BU's roster it's confirmed that every major contributor from last years team is back. This includes Cates who tore his ACL last year and at the time was BU's alpha in the midfield. Hopefully they can avoid Loyola's 2022 season where results didn't match up with the expectations of the ret...

I hear BU has all their starters coming back, including those listed as seniors last year. They should be the favorites given they have everyone back and that the other top teams do actually lose major players.

The Gray loss set the program back a couple of years and Polley has done an amazing job rebuilding the team. Congrats to BU! If only Gray had stayed at BU, he could be playing in the NCAA tournament this year ... I don’t blame Gray for transferring and by all accounts, he was well liked and a great...

Congrats to BU! That attack will be fun to watch in the playoffs. First for Polley. He was already held in high regard for building that program up fast and fairly consistently. And to get here while Gray is still at UNC is amazing. Could’ve gone the other way after losing such a transcendent playe...

So, are people believing more now that this is the year BU and Coach Polley break through with their first conference tournament title and NCAA Tournament appearance? Still a long way to go and they're going to have to do it without two guys who were playing at a very high level in Morrison and Cat...

BU will be fine and still in great shape to compete for the PL championship. Yale was the first game without their best close D guy who got injured vs Navy and the defense looked out of sorts. Yale was certainly the better team but I haven't seen BU's defense that out of sorts all year. Better that ...

Am I to believe Matt Moore is not one of the top 16 attack-men in the country? Obviously these rankings don't mean much but I'm all for spirited debate ;) Moore absolutely has not been a top 16 attack man. He's had that type of career and has AA talent, but the production does not warrant AA consid...

Boston U 3-0 Bucknell 4-0 Hopefully both teams are still undefeated when they play in 2 weeks Each team won Boston 4-0 Bucknell 5-0 Both team should be ranked this week. Looking forward to the head to head game on this coming Saturday 3-12 Bucknell first game playing someone with winning record, so...
