That said, if Gaitlax provides a quality product (they sure will) YOUR University of Maryland Women’s Lacrosse Team will be all in. Rather ...

Doomers are prevailing it seems.

But look at the bright side.

The beervirus has cured flu, pneumonia, Alzheimer’s, and multiple other diseases.

At least nobody seems to die of those ailments nowadays. :roll:

Peace, out.

Re: COVID-19 (coronavirus) impact on Women's Lacrosse

7. The death rate is infinitesimally small. 8. The once great state of Maryland has a population of more than 6,000,000 (6 MILLION) humans. As of yesterday, August 6, there are a grand total of five hundred, thirty-five (535) humans currently hospitalized with the beervirus. 9. TL has personal frien...

Incorrect. She last played for the Terps in the first two games of the 2014 ACC tournament. She did not play thereafter and played for Syracuse in 2015-16. Peace, out.

No worries.

Doncha worry a bit about TL’s Laxchix. :roll: Any coach, any sport, will tell you if a player doesn’t want to be part of the team she/he will be happy when the player moves on. And don’t forget, Coach Cathy has little tolerance for players who aren’t in line with TEAM performance/culture. After all,...

Re: COVID-19 (coronavirus) impact on Women's Lacrosse

These decisions lead TL to believe they were driven by influences beyond the academic and athletics components of the conferences/universities. This is NOT a debasement of the legal profession or those who are part of that profession but they had ZERO business in this process. ZERO. It is more an in...

Stanford just canceled eleven programs.

Yes, THAT Stanford and, yes, eleven (11!) sports with attendant loss of jobs and scholarship opportunities.

You think your school is immune? Get ready...

Your are correct.

Game was 2001...was counting ‘seasons’, not years, but still technically wrong, of course.

...that NCAA is to meet this week re: playing football games without fans in the stands.
