GREAT defense for the Mids - goalie is a wall. X goal just now was his best ever!

"Just win, baby!"

Interesting behavior on the Army bench. So much for "close-order" discipline. They appear to be another bunch of lax bruhs. Nothing wrong with that, per se, but let's take them down off the public encomium pedestal, huh? Lighten up, Francis, they’re having fun. And, they’ve earned that ri...

DraftKings line is Navy +7.5, gotta think they can cover so will take that one. Moneyline bet is enticing at +1000 but just don't see it happening. GO NAVY!!

Great win by Army in OT. Army was more athletic than Syracuse. Who’d a thunk it?!? DocBarrister Doc - perhaps your first post on the Army board in your numerous elsewhere? Welcome...... Regardless agree on athleticism and 'cuse just wasn't disciplined - tried low percentage shots even when they had...

....its the damned system, and has been for a decade. We have already beat the horse so badly, it's now a drum of glue, over the SA recruiting challenges and the limitations of the player profiles that 'want' to even attend a SA.....water under the bridge. The rub, is what happens when they arrive....

From the front lines - Amplo has already lost the locker room, it's not due to yesterday's game. It's been a combination of on/off field antics that has been building over the last three years. Goat, trust your insider information but ouch - incredible indictment for the program. If accurate - CHT ...

Kudos to Robolobo for keeping the conversation going in the off months. My prediction is that 2024 could already be labelled as 'The Year of the Card' even before it begins. EVERY instruction material I have seen from USAL, NFHS, and VHSL highlights protecting players and enforcing the rules by all ...

No arguments there - way too early in the season to predict a W with little information on both teams.

Congratulations to both teams advancing!

VHSL STATE FINALS CHAMPIONSHIP: 6/10 @ 12:30p: Battlefield vs Oakton

Saw Cavs run the clock versus Lake Braddock, the Bruins came to play but Cavs had 10 days to prepare between games, it ended 16-4. ...it was wrong! Checko keyed the comeback on the circle and going to goal for 5 or 6 goals as Rams pulled ahead 10-9 in the 2nd half. It was still a game late but with...

WE have to get rid of the hateful term “Cavalier” ^ TLDR ... but am sure it was outstanding prose and factual! I was in the area so watched a premier 5D regional playoff with Riverside @ Mountain View. Coming off a surprising loss to Stafford HS the MV Wildcats kept it close through the first half ...

Both these teams have had better years than people expected to see from them back in February. A predictably tough SA team, Army features a dangerous outside as well. Penn State, like three other Big 10 teams, has their share of significant wins. Every time I watch Army I come away thinking, “Gee, ...

These kids left it all on the field. I love our sport.

exactly - what a win for the Nittany Lions! Will be there for the game against Army....

Agreed! Great game for Family, Toughness, Tradition.

Good write-ups on both games! Kudos to the third team on the fields as didn't hear criticism of officials similar to previous invectives - even compliments! Compliments also due to the West Sparty coach as is in the norm - BP is a class act and sets the standard against which others are measured. My...
