Re: Fifth Year Players

I love the idea that the CNU culture is so good that the kids want to stay an extra year. Should we not hope that every player has such a good experience at there school that they stay if the can. CNU coach is the best selling feature of that school. He is a great leader. Everyone we talked to, lov...

Re: Fifth Year Players

A couple of things come to mind. The CNU approach reminds me of the NFL rams last season. Going all in for your best shot in one year to win it all. It worked for the rams. CNU doing the same. Stacking with 9 5th year kids to give leadership and experience. I don’t like it. As for the private school...

Re: ODAC 2022

Fielder, great insight on Lynchburg, thanks. I did note the fact that the Lburg boys played right up to the bitter end in the W&L game, no quit in that team. On another note, today Roanoke announced an MBA program beginning in the Summer of 2023: https://www.roanoke.edu/about/news/mba_program ....

Re: MAC 2022

In the slew of conference games this week, most intriguing for each MAC looks to be - Commonwealth - Stevenson vs an Eastern team who lost by 2 to RPI and by 4 to Cabrini. Freedom - Stevens vs Misericordia who beat Eastern by 4 a week before their 2 goal loss to RPI Stevens will continue there walk...

Re: York 2022

I was very high on York ( meaning final the goal) at the seasons start. I still am but I need to see now at mid season the Gburg game to see where they are at. I thought they’d beat W&L by 5-7. First game of the year so I gave them a pass. In the 2 losses I didn’t think they played poorly but n...

Re: ODAC 2022

I think the HSC field is amazing. The natural grass with only the lines for lax. They need to upgrade the scoreboard though. Lynchburg is the toughest place to play Most D3 schools need to update the scoreboard. Definitely. Not a cheap venture by any stretch. Nice ones can easily get into the 6 fig...

I was not referring to you.
Cool. everyone here likes lax so no need to hurt feelings. I didn’t realize that saying most ODAC schools are better at academics than athletics would be so offensive. It wasn’t intended as an attack.

Re: ODAC 2022

Curious, who in the ODAC today has the best venue? or we could split it into multiple parts: best stadium/venue, best homefield advantage, best/worst fans? I have my own biases of course but would love to hear what other people think. (for me its roanoke best stadium, lynchburg/HSC best homefield a...

Re: ODAC 2022

Who is making attacks? I gave an opinion on a conference, and gave my experience with the last two summers of recruiting at some very popular tournaments.

Unless you are referring to the other poster, who doesn’t believe what is happening in the current recruiting world.

Re: ODAC 2022

I’m glad you have a son who was recruited and hope nothing but the best for him. But I have an extensive amount experience in college lacrosse and quite honestly you don’t know what you’re talking about. Roanoke and HSC are regional colleges and quite frankly are handicapped by an above average cos...

Re: ODAC 2022

Besides Lynchburg, the ODAC is a conference where kids go to college, and also happen to play lacrosse. They can’t compete with most of the top programs when kids are there for lacrosse, while they get an education One of dumber things said on this forum. I’ll concede that the ODAC is down and does...

Re: ODAC 2022

I don’t see any way there are two teams from the ODAC. Lynchburg with 4 losses. And the tufts loss is looking worse now. I think Lynchburg is ranked too high. Probably should be around 20 with W&L. Winner of the conference gets in. HSC Noke and RMC are done. None of them are deep enough to pull ...

Re: FanLax Forum Poll

The interesting part is that everyone is high on union for beating tufts. But getting down on tufts for losing to union and middlebury. And everyone is claiming middlebury was a good win for union. Union has three tough games. If they go 3-0, they deserve too spot. I predict them going 1-2. But I ha...

Re: York 2022

Most teams will lose to a team they should have beat. Very few teams ever go undefeated. At the end of the season. The final 4 is most likely going to be from the following group. I would say… all 4 from this list 75% chance 3 of the 4 from this list 95% National champ from this list 99% Salisbury C...

Re: FanLax Forum Poll

I don’t know what to think now. RPI was under the radar, but the one loss and a win over middlebury Middlebury with 3 losses to bowdoin, RPI and union. But win over Tufts Tufts and York with two losses to top 10 teams Salisbury, union ,Bowdoin, and CNU undefeated Not impressed with SJF today Top 10 ...

Re: York 2022

Union takes down tufts. This changes everything. Probably does not Help York as I doubt Tufts falls below them while Union will likely jump them in the rankings, but I could see Tufts falling to the 6-9 range but I think their is a pretty big gap after that. Tufts should drop behind York. York lost...
