They just created a job listing for a new assistant coach position, so I guess they have the money to fund that for now at least Is someone leaving? They have 3 assistant coaches now and isn't that the limit? Job is listed as entry level with minimum 1 year experience Their biggest issue going into...

Dolce was in a very difficult position not of her own making. NU ran a nifty play that fooled the BC defense. The play was bang-bang so it isn’t entirely accurate to say the defense hung her out to dry, but that was the effect. Amonte was one on none with Dolce. There was no defender to cut off one...

Agree KM is deserving of more recognition. In my opinion AA honorable mention. Can someone tell me who on 1st-3rd team AA list she should replace? People associated with BC team will say that she is the 4th best attacker. Say something about BC team. BC low attackers do more to make others better a...

It appears that next year's Final will be at Gillette Stadium in Foxborough. I think the optics of 4000-5000 fans in a 70,000 seat giant stadium will be less than optimal. They are better off at venues that fold 8000-10,000.

Fair points about BC and they have Dolce back but it is grit, defense and on field leadership that ultimately determines a teams success, not offense. Will be interesting to see if BC can stay at the top of the mountain. IMO they will need some more excellent transfers to do so. This year's team st...

You need to look beyond BC attack. BC losses 8 starters, 4 of which are AA. Martello could/should have been 5th AA. Lots of shoes to fill. Like many teams, they have lost a lot of talent . But, at least offensively, no other team has the returning offensive firepower that they do. Returner Mckenna ...

NJBill. It did not hit her shin. WHILE IN MID AIR, she throws her foot out to try to make the stop and she does. If you think the ball just so happened to hit her, you don’t know goalkeeping. Sorry. I know you are admittedly disappointed at the result, but nothing about that save is lucky. All I sa...

Northwestern should have called a TO when Laliberty had possession of the ball outside the crease while a player down. Cost them a goal. And Lalibery got hurt on the play.

If having the most top recruits* really meant as much as UNC fans seem to continue to suggest, then I'm still not sure how or why UNC ended up having the season that they just had or why they only have three national championships. *top recruit meaning "top" according to the IL Women list...

Ignoring transfers which will happen, both in and out, I'd go 1) BC -- will be preseason #1, probably unamimous. 2) NW -- a lot more talent there than most people think 3) Yale -- been building for this year for a while 4) Michigan -- moving in right direction with 2 potential Tewey finalists 5) UV...

It’s easier to win the third game if you’ve won the first two. If you look at NFL football stats if teams play for the third time in a season and team A won the first two , they have a 60-66.7 % chance of winning the third game. Its 56% in NCAA basketball. The bottom line is that BC is more likely t...

The amount of excuse making for UNC going on is hilarious. I get they have a ton of injuries but it seems like they are setting up an easy blame game for the loss if it happens. What’s the point of having top recruiting classes if you don’t have any depth. We lost 8 starters… 3 of our best attackin...

Maybe someone else has mentioned this but based on this season in no way does Scane deserve the Tewaaraton. That was a horrendous performance and honestly showed a complete lack of awareness on her part. From what I have seen this year the defender from BC deserves it. If I had a vote for the Tewaa...

With the two upsets in the Big Ten today ( Hop over Michigan, Rutgers over Maryland) , Syracuse and BC must be elated. It looks like the winner of that game should be the 2 seed in the NCAAs and the loser in the top 4 or 5. Where does that leave Maryland who now has 5 losses and Michigan who’s now l...

I have. And I’ve coached for 40+ years. If you read my post carefully, I indicate that “ we all do and have” missed a shot. The point of my post was not to blame or criticize her on missing the shot. I didn’t and don’t blame her. The point was not to discuss that she didn’t score but to discuss why....

The tournaments will have a huge impact on the seeding. Take the ACC for example. If Syracuse , ND , BC or UVA wins out I’d expect them to be the 2 seed in the NCAAs. If the chalks wins the first round against the bottom of the ACC as expected: Syracuse - would beat UVA or UNC , then ND or BC winner...

In my view, the issue isn’t that she missed a shot. We all do and have. It’s why. She missed the shot because she was stationary. She should have been cutting down to that right pipe where she would have been on on one from 2-3 yards out. If a current player watches the clip and understands that, ma...
