10-2 half

When I saw how quickly he posted, I assume he had two lists ready (maybe at half-time when it was clear it would be a close game), and just pasted in the right one. The head of NASA (IIRC) in The Martian had two speeches written in advance that he could deliver based on the outcome of an event. So ...

No, the other semi was Hopkins-Delaware. The latter upset Virginia to advance and featured a great faceoff guy who'd win quickly and race to the goal, setting up an easy score. Pietramala negated him by having his faceoff guy jump the gun, giving Delaware the ball but in a settled situation that cou...

The last goalie recognized was Tillman Johnson in 2003.

Some of us still think the Enners matters most.

... I guess I've been spoiled by the great Cornell goalies of the past. A .522 save % doesn't seem too great. Look at these eyepopping save stats for prior Cornell goalies: Butch Hilliard: 1967: .745 1968: .767 Bob Rule: 1970: .756 1971: .777 Bob Buhmann: 1970: .684 1971: .652 Dan Mackesey: 1976: ....

In case you missed it, Forbes can out with its rankings of the top 50 public universities in August. 4. Michigan 8. UVA 11. UNC 13. UMD I can hear it now, “Maryland, the new public ivy!” Not listed: Penn State, Ohio State. Assuming you only listed lacrosse schools because 1-2 UC schools should be a...

Yes. Sad, indeed.

When your team is found to be engaging in hazing not long after the president of your institution publishes this in the New York Times, you are soon going to be out of your job. https://www.nytimes.com/2011/08/24/opinion/a-pledge-to-end-fraternity-hazing.html I would guess the call from Skorton to N...

Those are incredible stats. 130 GB's- eye popping. Taking 202 faceoffs will bump up your groundball total. If you win. You don't get to take 202 faceoffs if you aren't winning your share. You can't compare groundballs of a middie who takes the bulk of his team's faceoffs with a middie who doesn't f...

Ned Harkness 35 wins, one loss !!! Sheesh ! In 1965, tragedy struck when two Big Red assistant lacrosse coaches were killed when their plane crashed on the way home from a recruiting trip. Harkness was called upon to assist head lacrosse coach Bob Cullen, and the next year, after Cullen stepped dow...

Turnovers killing Yale.

Good luck to Yale in what should be a great game today. The Hoyas are stacked and red hot, but Shea always seems to get his Bulldogs ready to play, when the stakes are the highest. Gobigred Joewillie78 Thank you Joewillie. Great weekend for lacrosee fans. After the early-season OOC Ivy losses, not ...

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...

Apparently your last game doesn't count when you reach the play-offs Yale ran thru and over Cornell in ILT semi final 31 shots by HT Cornell only 3 saves by HT That game should have been dead and buried instead of 12-8 HT Cornell had one genuinely bad defensive performance out of 14 games. Are you ...

Snuck in. They battled from an 0-3 league start to get into the ILT and winning the first round game. Along the way some good wins. Maybe Yale was last team in and unfortunately squeezed out Denver and Penn. But they are in. Now, it's a new season. With the recent Cornell and Princeton games, it's ...

Unclear why Army isn't going to Hop and Bryant to MD. Was just thinking the same thing. That appears to be the biggest issue with the bracket. How does Maryland get the 4 seed and a tougher draw than the 6 seed JHU? Please don't tell me it's because it's a 407 mile bus ride from Smithfield to Colle...

Thanks, deleted the midfield reference. Brain freeze moment.

Happens to us all.
