My last look at the first team after the ODAC tournament: RMC boys moving up after an impressive week!! Congrats to Noke, W&L, Lynchburg for making the big dance…good for the conference! 1st team A- Brown / W&L / Sr. A- L. Kammerman / Roanoke / Sr. A- O'Brien / HSC / Sr. A- Smith / RMC / Sr...

Plus Hampden-Sydney was a combined one and seven against CNU when my kids played there. Your memory serves you wrong there. The Tigers were a respectable 3-5, and many would consider those rebuilding years until they won the ODAC championship in 2017. My kids were a bit before your time - I remembe...

How much a CNU degree means in the real world? That's interesting. I have three kids who all played sports at CNU, with two of them being lacrosse players. They all are doctors now and make more money than you did in your late 20s and early 30s buddy. Have to agree, that is a low blow on CNU grads....

Hot take of the week. CNU doesn't make it out of their pod. Not sure if Cabrini will get them, but when they literally have nothing to lose I can't wait to watch that one. Then they either have to play Stevens who has been rolling or Roanoke, a senior heavy team who is juiced to probably be the las...

Wow, May Madness!! Congrats to the Bugs on their 10th ODAC championship. First one on Shellenberger since 2015 I believe. That also happens to be the last year an ODAC team made it to the Linc... Hats off to the Yellow Jackets as well. That was a fiery tournament run that showed that Sheridan is hea...

Checking in before this ODAC Championship to say a few words. My Tigers were dispatched by a very solid RMC squad, but I am more than happy with the way the program is going. I said it once and I'll say it again, Perry was tough to replace. Smith did a solid job this year in goal, and I hope that we...

W&L / Lynchburg is a pick ‘em game. Honestly if they played 10x I think they’d be .500. It’s truly a one possession game, the goalie or fogo catches fire,or a failed clear. I haven’t any idea what the outcome could be should they meet again. Let’s just hope both get to the finals Couldn't agree...

This week is huge across all of lacrosse, but my eyes are on the ODAC Starting this post by looking at my Tigers vs the Jackets. Momentum wise, both groups have been stagnant the past few weeks. Weaker competition to end the season after both groups look at the Gennies who sit at home after a tough ...

Tough weekend for my Tigers. Didn't get a chance to watch live thanks to my ex-wife being in town for court, but watched the DVR yesterday and boy was that a rough one. I've never seen a Rostan coached goalie drop his hands as much as Smith did - typically a tell-tale sign that there has been some h...

CNU absolutely dismantling UMW right now. Lots of starters out for CNU which is a bit puzzling. Cabbanis, Adams, and Hanway are all out. They all played and seemed healthy on Saturday. Either way the Captains are starting to hit their stride. UMW clearly isn’t a great team, but a 12-0 lead heading ...

Looks like I'm going to have to remind everyone to remain civil in these forums... Last night's game was just another classic LYN/NOKE game. Since 2018, the bugs have outscored the Maroons 142-94 and an 8-1 record. Only an 8 goal margin in the past 3 games however, which tells me that Roanoke has im...

Have to imagine tomorrow night is a big one for LC on the road. It's starting to feel like LC must win out & land in the ODAC Final; and anything short of that could put them on the hot seat. Especially with the Gettysburg & Hamilton losses looking worse as the season goes on. There is a sc...

Sentences end with a period genius.

Do they always?

This is top-tier!

What did the Shenandoah do to Roanoke to piss them off?!? I was checking box scores and Roanoke took 83 freaking shots! Is that normal for these ODAC games with top tier playing lower tier? Very nomal for Pilate to pull a dbag move like that. When you have rosters of 50+ and the kids at the bottom ...

Curious how the Captains fans saw that push call against LYN. Looked like Brendes with a little bit of gamesmanship/hit the dead fish once again, but this time not in celebration. Obviously an ODAC homer take, but with a scrum in front of the crease and the defender on the ground, not sure that was ...

Going to take a stab at predictions for this year's Mustang Classic. I'm a bit late but haven't turned on any of the games yet (the boss has made too many rounds this morning - I think he knows what's going down in Owings Mills). Good thing this coffee has Bailey's in it to get me through these Zoom...

I admit I did not think Noke would pull this one out, so pleasantly surprised by their win last night. Looks like 41 decided to flex his muscle a bit which is helpful when you play an actual team like Grove City. Hopefully his brother decides to pull up his jock and do the same on Saturday. That's n...

Jackets pull away from St Mary’s to win 13-9. 4 goal margin despite some off games from their top contributors which is hopefully a good sign of depth. Up 13-7 last few minutes but got into some penalty trouble late at St Mary’s made them pay. Good win for ODAC, not sure why so many had them as und...

Coming off a weekend where we saw that bulletin boards, FanLax opinions, and preseason scrimmages truly don't matter, here's what I'm looking for this coming weekend... RMC @ SMCM - This could give us a great read on the Jackets vs a rising St. Mary's squad. Away game, Friday night lights. Could be ...
