I think it's more whether this team is built the same way in terms of being dominant at the specialist positions. In the 2019 and 2021 seasons -- even aside from the enormous talent on the roster -- the Hoos were well-constructed for a post-season run with a great "playoff goalie" in Rode and FOGO in LaSalla. Same true last year with #41 having a better year and still having LaSalla. Today was just one day but in today's game UVA goalies had a 31% save percentage and the Hoos were 40% at the faceoff X.

Still a very dangerous team, although not playing well (for them) right now.
The defense has been atrocious in 3 of the last 4 games. I’ve never seen a Tiffany defense so fundamentally poor. Nunes has been getting shelled inside of 10 yards.

Offensively it looks like Schutz and Shellenberger are the only 2 players who can consistently win a matchup.

Why would UVA make the tournament, they suck
I know you're probably trolling but in LaxReference's updated RPI after tonight's games, UVA is at #5. They are quite safely in. (There are four ACC teams in the top 5 in RPI: ND #1, Duke #2, Syracuse #4, UVA #5.)
ACC IS A joke besides ND all other teams can win or lose to any team in top 20, kiss my ass with the RPI, eye test tells me UVA is average at best,
their best win is Maryland who is 8 and 5 an offense is not good. they are 1 and 5 against top 10 teams. Army, Navy, Colgate have 1 win against top 10.
pretty coincidental as i'm hoping the hoos draw army. oh, wait!
respectfully … you are making his point, but missed it in a fit of rage.
A fraudulent intent, however carefully concealed at the outset, will generally, in the end, betray itself.

With all the studs you have very cool this kid chizmar, apparently a walkon, has worked his way into the rotation. Excellent story.

He plays as hard as any player on the field. Just fearless.

Cormier's record is well earned yet for me, bittersweet. I coached Guterding in our village's youth league. Justin's dad Joe played at Penn State and helped Justin develop the fundamentals. O'Keefe's father played lacrosse at FDU and encouraged Mac to switch from goalie to attack. Both are terrific young men from wonderful families.

The old saw "records are made to be broken". Q.E.D.

Congrats to Cormier on that splendid achievement.
