Re: UNC 2024 Injuries

Big fan of field hockey or basketball for my young laxers. The late great iaamfan told me that field hockey and basketball were the best sports to prepare for lacrosse. Had never heard about gymnastics being good training for lacrosse. Interesting. From what little I know about the sport, it sounds...

Re: 2024 All-Americans

Honestly probably a better list than most years. I'd make a few changes I'd have Pavelini 3rd team at a minimum, same with Collignon from yalem both over teammates who made 3rd team.. And you can't convince me that Laliberty isn't one of the top 9 goalies in the country. Also some of the womens list...

Re: WLAX Bracketology

Devil's advocate here (pun kinda intended) Why are we giving Fairfield a free pass here? Agree Navy should be in, but.... Does anyone here think Fairfield would beat Duke on a neutral field? Fairfield has 2 pretty bad losses (HC and Niagra), much worse than Duke's worse loss (Clemson). In terms of ...

Re: WLAX Bracketology

Navy (#22 RPI) 8-1; 15-4, lost in overtime in PL final Duke (#31 RPI) 4-5; 10-8; blown out in 1st round of ACC tournament And Navy has the head-to-head. Brutal selection, just shows how much the criteria are stacked toward the power conferences. Pretty much shows that SOS matters. Hopefully the pat...

Re: Coaching Carousel 2024

To connect this discussion with this thread about coaching … I would be willing to bet that the majority of successful coaches also demonstrate a high level of respect for the players they are recruiting. The fact is, many of these are incredible young women. I would also bet that a decent number o...

Re: Coaching Carousel 2024

In my admittedly limited experience some of the PL schools mentioned made some very questionable offers (certainly not all, as there are good players at all those schools). I didn’t see what they were seeing and I know I’m not the only person to have made that observation. What I can tell you about...

Re: Coaching Carousel 2024

Regarding Patriot League teams, are most of them fully funded (I have no idea). I had heard AU only had 4 scholarships for womens lacrosse. Again, no clue if that is true or not, but what someone told me... Loyola is As a Patriot league parent, I can give some perspective. Well, Army and Navy don't...

Re: WLAX Bracketology

Seeding talk Based on this weekend's results, I think #1 and #2 are pretty solid, well 3-8 may as well be a crap shoot. Here is my take of seedings as of now. (Keep in mind this is where I think seeding will end up, not what I necessarily believe they should be) 1. NW 2. BC 3. Cuse 4. Penn 5. ND 6....

Re: ACC Tournament - Seeds, schedule and thoughts

WOW did Syracuse get exposed in this game. Buncha melting creamsicles in the end. (And I called Notre Dame frauds.) All the silly talk out on Twitterville about this being Syracuse's year for their first Natty after they whupped up on Ginny in the semi's against a team that had obviously squandered...
