Is Mikey Long OK?

Christian Swezey over the weekend had an interesting metric for attackmen (he credited the idea as partly coming from Marc Van Arsdale of Loyola): add Goals, assists, ground balls, and caused turnovers and then subtract turnovers. Swezey’s post had the arithmetic totals, which would be dependent in...

Remembering Coach Moran on the 2nd anniversary of his passing. Rest in peace Coach!

During the Notre Dame game, after Ryan Goldstein scored, the ESPN+ announcer described Ryan as "skinny as a chimney sweep with the hands of a mohel.! LOL! https://www.youtube.com/shorts/VAmi8WUK-6c That announcer was awesome! had a one liner or metaphor for almost every play. Pretty sure that ...

In 2016 Rutgers beat Hopkins twice, but Hopkins got the bid and Rutgers didn't Rutgers had the #20 RPI, two bad losses, and those wins over Hopkins were their only quality wins. They didn't have a tournament resume. There was no Hopkins vs. Rutgers H2H comparison because Rutgers wasn't even in the ...

It is often the case that the team with the best goalie wins the NC. In the Ivy League, Penn's Carroll has appeared to be the best goalie with his 60.1 save %. But it is noteworthy that Wyatt Knust has a 63% save % since he relieved Matt Tully during the Syracuse game. 100 shots on goal, 63 saves, 3...

Congrats to the Big Red! 15-8 over Harvard. Now root for Princeton later today. A Princeton victory today and a Cornell victory next week over Dartmouth will give Cornell the hosting privilege for the Ivy Tourney! I would much rather see Penn and Yale win out and win the three way tie-break. This m...

Princeton won 15-10. Now take care of business in Hanover!

Syracuse helped Cornell's RPI today, defeating Virginia 18-17.

My $0.02 on the Tewaaraton 2024. Pending Yale, UVA, and Cornell team tournament results, and obviously remaining individual output, today my ranking is the following: 1. Matt Brandau 2. Connor Shellenberger 3. CJ Kirst I don’t seee anyone else remotely close to these three. Nor do I see anyone else...

As someone who follows the ACC closely—there is a highly regarded freshman attackman on my favorite teams and the best player on the weakest ACC team is a freshman—I’m not sure there’s a freshman attackman in the ACC that I would trade for Goldstein. He’s fundamentally sound, he doesn’t hog the bal...
