Terps are putting on a clinic today in College Park. 11-2 at the half. Wes Janeck wins a face-off...yes, Wes Janeck...and scores with 5 seconds left in the half. Danny Dolan has 9 saves at the half. Maryland's offense is just chewing up Nova's defense. Brett Makar is covering Connor Kirst, who has o...

6-1 Terps at the end of the 1st quarter. If not for a dubious dive call on a Bernhardt goal that led to a Nova EMO, the score would have been worse.

Dolan is locked in today. Has 6 saves already including 2 that were just highway robbery.

Nova's going to need a timeout here soon. 4-0 Terps with 7:27 left in the first.

Danny Dolan has 2 saves already, and Nova is one-and-done on their possessions. The Terps are getting everything they want on offense.

I'm at the game...I'll post some score updates for those not watching on BTN2Go on the pay service.

Nice day in CP. Lots of events going on. The women pounded Ohio State. There's a track meet happening. Lots of people tailgating in Lot 1. Nice day but really windy.

Finding flights this weekend probably proved to be too difficult for sure, but it's almost as if there are 7 or 8 weeks left in the season where they might have been able to play a midweek game. Perhaps all of the flights between Denver and Columbus were sold out between now and May 1st. If was a ba...

Don't you all get the feeling that neither Denver nor OSU wanted to reschedule that game? A couple of years ago when weather forced the cancellation of the Maryland-Albany game, they rescheduled it midweek later in the season. That game for the Terps got sandwiched between games against highly ranke...

Kyle Long is coming along for Maryland lacrosse It is nice to see Long doing some scoring. I guess we were thinking he might take over the righty attack position during the Summer, which Dubick is filling so ably. Long might still get there down the road as Dubick is in his final year. I noticed Ky...

A couple guys to keep an eye on. 2019 and 2020 Terp recruits, out of Bishop Shanahan PA. You’d think these two would put Shanahan at the top of favorites for PA high school title this year. https://www.insidelacrosse.com/recruiting/highschool/team/Bishop+Shanahan/7628/19?active_id=301 I've seen Wha...

Right now on just the eye test, as in watching games, JHU and RU look like teams fighting for the 4th B1G spot. PSU's offense is just phenomenal, and it compensates for an average defense (but their goalie is an outright thief in the cage). OSU looks to have regained their physically imposing defens...

Although I'm not a Hopkins fan, I find that I am among my people here on this thread! Hopkins will always maintain relevancy in lacrosse in the same way that Notre Dame does in football and Kentucky does in basketball. Lacrosse is such a part of the culture and identity of Hopkins. Again, speaking a...

The B1G will be a 4-bid league (Md, PSU, OSU, RU/JHU). The ACC...not so sure. Duke and Syracuse (given their zillion home games) will probably make the tournament, as will Notre Dame. You never know what UVA will do. I don't see UNC making it. How you can you consider OSU a shoe in and be confident...

I am interested in getting the boards' thoughts on a conversation that many Maryland fans on a different site had over Petro's future at Hopkins. There's some broad agreement that had he not gotten to the quarterfinals last season that he wouldn't have been back this year. Again, that's a total out...

Very quiet from this board. A lot of chest thumping early in the season about the conference being head and shoulders above the rest, maybe a 5 bid league. How many top 20 OOC wins does the team have through 6 weeks? PSU: One (#3 Cornell) Maryland: One (#19 Colgate) OSU: None JHU: None Rutgers: Non...

Pretty measured take. I think with this freshman class, they did try to recruit size, speed, and athleticism. I disagree about next year's class though, there are several kids who project out as either possible two-way middies who can impact both sides of the field and transition, or just big/athle...

As an outsider, what's happening at JHU isn't a huge surprise and could be seen coming from a mile away. If Stanwick had another year of eligibility, you all would be humming along this year. The shot clock has affected your offense more than most teams, and without an elite dodger to get defenses r...
