LaxPower Back-Up Stick

The CBS Sports crew is solid with E Washburn on color (live now Navy - Loyola).

I like Dixon and Joe, Dixie gets a bit pbpish when he is on color cuz he does pbp on other broadcasts.

Middlesex 13 - Rivers 9. Entertaining one. Middlesex jumped out to a 5-0 lead in the first quarter and it looked like the rout was on. Scoring slowed in the second, and after MX got it to 6-0 Rivers began clawing back. I believe it was 6-3 at the half. Tons of penalties in the third. Rivers got it ...

Great win for Dux yesterday over AB. This year is lining up to be a great finish in D2 and maybe (just maybe) in D1.

I read them

I have Babson over Tufts, 14-12. Beavers win a close one, stronger defense and better at the faceoff X. Rainville has 6 goals, Dannolfo cries, and all is right in this world. Go CAMELS!! Almost had it right. Hmmmm, define “almost”!!! Lol!! Rainville a very nice player, 3&1, really talented kid....

Almost had it right.

Trinity will not receive any votes because they're considered a second-tier team. Their recent losses to Williams, Tufts, and Bowdoin were decisive, and they also fell to Skidmore. Their overtime win over Wesleyan, Clarke, West Conn, and Scranton is unlikely to boost their ranking and earn them any...

Swarthmore and RPI are in the same boat. I don't think they are the #6 and #2 teams in the country but based on their record they deserve to be there you can debate swarthmore. they are anywhere between 5-15 the only debate for RPI is being #1 or being #2 they are undefeated have the most top 20 wi...

Speaking of broadcasters, I'm beyond sick of Booker Corrigan continually plugging events run by Corrigan Sports every 5 minutes, no matter how irrelevant they are to what's happening in the game he's calling. Absolutely shameless and gross, but he seems to get a pass from everyone. And yet we have ...

Now that a fanlax venmo is in place, maybe assess a $ amount or a length of time penalty for bad behavior, with the transgressor having the option to choose?

Also, wife is sending some $.

You mean Boston Univ.? What is underated about that place? Has it changed since 1997 (other than the turf, admittedly, last time I was there was to watch a Cannons game in 2002 or so)?

Dial it down a notch or three.

That guy is awesome. He does Army's hockey games and is getting better and better at calling lax pbp.

I think the Brown PBP is okay. He's an olde time homer, but so what. Great pipes as they say.

Watching the Yale Penn game (at Yale this past Saturday) right now and I think that duo is doing a real good job.

Did Tufts switch to a zone when they shut Williams out in that second half?

What did Amherst run against them?

Unfortunately I was not able to watch either of these games. If yes to both - I would say Hamilton is a solid pick, their zone seems strong.

Yes, for most of the half.

Garzone slight off game for him, but can’t really blame the goalie especially when they have almost a 40% (not bad). May need to figure out some things on D. Garzone was brutal (below .400). Defense not great either, but the 14th goal against, the backbreaker IMO, was shot right at his stick from d...

Agreed, happy you are making some $ Matt but the ads are a bit excessive.

I think you’ll be seeing more and more programs follow on this path, whether it’s a wise decision or not. A lot of these college admins see D2 as a wasteland. A lot more money to field a competitive team than in D3 with nearly as many schollies as D1, with a fraction of the reach of a D1 athletics ...
