Pushed/threw his man down. Checked him in the head while he was on ground and play had moved on.

Non sequitur, Hawkeye.

Re: Ivy League 2019
I'll admit, I wanted to wait and see how the semi's finished... with that said, I was going to predict Yale from the start and will for the final. Going to digest the semi's a bit and maybe throw out a score prediction. As we all know the score is only relevant as to who scores more and for personal statistics... but, still fun! Some great lacrosse and hoping Cornell can maybe sneak in with an at large!
Re: Ivy League 2019
ILT question, how was attendance for both games last night?

Re: Ivy League 2019
I think Yale is the stronger team. Both Penn and Yale played to the buzzer Friday, so managing fatigue will be an issue. Good luck to both teams.RumorMill wrote: ↑Fri May 03, 2019 11:12 pmI'll admit, I wanted to wait and see how the semi's finished... with that said, I was going to predict Yale from the start and will for the final.

Re: Ivy League 2019
Went to the games last night. First game was a treat although I felt robbed by the refs at the end when they bailed out the Penn pole. Brown is one gritty team. Some great performances on both sides. Second game not so much. Yale was in control from the opening faceoff although Teat was fantastic and seemed to make every shot he took.
I was impressed by the size and athleticism of Penn, Brown and Yale. Sunday’s game should be a great one but Penn had a much tougher semi and that could hurt them in final. I like Penn if they can win half of the faceoffs but that’s a ridiculously tall order....

Re: Ivy League 2019
The box score from Yale's web site says 2,731. http://www.yalebulldogs.com/sports/m-la ... 3_bq7j.xml There was just one admission charged, so that 2,731 would cover both games.
NYC weather forecast says 100% chance of rain tomorrow, does not bode well for final-game attendance.

Re: Ivy League 2019
Well done, Quakers.
As it always is, the next game is the only game.

Re: Ivy League 2019
Congratulations to the Penn Quaker lacrosse family on adding the Ivy League Tournament title to their regular season Ivy championship. Terrific team without any apparent holes. An impressive arc of improvement after going 0-3 to start the year speaks of terrific coaching and excellent senior/upperclass leadership.
As a Yale fan, perhaps I should be more disappointed -- obviously Yale may lose a chance at an NCAA home game or at least get a lower seed -- but I'm relatively optimistic. After a poor first quarter in which Penn set Yale back on their heels, the Elis bounced back well. The defense tightened up considerably; Starr was solid (and at times more) in the goal; and Yale showed, again, that even without an overwhelming advantage in face-offs/possessions (and in fact being under 50% on the day) they can compete with top-level competition.
Now I'm looking forward to two or hopefully three Ivy teams to make some noise in the NCAAs.

Re: Ivy League 2019
Yale will get a home game no doubt about it
Re: Ivy League 2019
Two Pennsylvania schools will get top three seedings in the NCAAs.
That’s happened ... never.
Well done Quakers

Re: Ivy League 2019
Would not be surprised at all if Quakes get 2 seed.
Re: Ivy League 2019
Fabulous lacrosse game. Congratulations to an excellent Quaker team. Gallagher looks like TD's kryptonite. I think Penn gets a 3 seed, but what do I know. I hope Yale doesn't have to face them again until the ff, provided both get there. Yale should be a 5 or 6 seed, but we will just have to see how the selection committee sets it up. Ivy homer that I am I'll be rooting for both unless or until they meet again, and if laf's laxbyte numbers are accurate Cornell as well with the same caveat.
Re: Ivy League 2019
I found it depressing that Quint said that after standing on the field at the semi between Brown/Penn "It looks to me like these Ivy teams are as athletic now as ACC teams" Where has he been the last 5 years, The Ivy teams are not as athletic as most ACC teams ..They are MORE Athletic than most ACCC teams. Bigger, faster, stronger and this is not new and certainly goes back to Dylan Malloy's Brown team, which I still think would have won it all if he had not gotten hurt. If you actually watch these teams play in person you should know how athletic they are, and if you are professional you should know what you are watching.
Re: Ivy League 2019
Well said. Quint's just a windbag.
Re: Ivy League 2019
I can't remember the last time the ILT went completely according to script, with the better seeded team winning in all three games. If it happened before, it was prior to 2013.

Re: Ivy League 2019
I am not usually too critical of Q, but I have to agree that the idea that the Ivy is not physical and athletic--a belief I used to hold as an ACC guy--is an outdated myth.
Re: Ivy League 2019
Congrats to the Quakers.
That was one hell of game. Was I rooting for Yale, since it helped Cornell's slim chances come selection time? Sure. But I was happy to see Penn win. Outstanding goalie play down the stretch...
