LaxPower Back-Up Stick

RIT middies...

John Mozrall - 28 pts - 1st Team
Seth Grottenthaler - 35 pts - 2nd Team
Kaden Brunson - 39 pts - no award

Hmmm

So, who should Navy hire as the next OC or would you prefer a completely new staff? Agnostic to the second half of this question, but assuming Amplo sticks around I think it's likely Andrew Stimmel will be on his shortlist. Joe's a loyalty guy and the two had a strong 2016 season together at Marque...

As for Stimmel, there is also the possibility that, after having experience as a head coach, he has realized that an assistant at a major DI program is the job that is best for him and what he likes the best. Legendary assistant coach Marc Van Arsdale decided the same thing after a stint as the hea...

Think these are logical bets:

Ryan Wellner
John Odierna
Jon Thompson
John Galloway
Andrew McMinn
Stephen Brundage
Justin Ward
John Orsen

Curious to see if Coach Stimmel lands at Navy.

Looked over Chemotti's bio on the Spider's website. No mention of a wife. If he has one, has she made friends in Richmond? Are they somewhat settled in? Is the quality of life better than Providence? I see Brown as close to a lateral move. Better conference, less chance of getting in the dance. Coa...

...However, I think that, while they couldn't have been much worse in the beginning, Turri may have things headed in a decent direction at St. John's. After not winning a game last year, they won four this year, including having their first Big East victory in ages. They also looked much tougher wi...

It'll be Charlie Hayes - alum, smart coach, credibility, team loves him.

Re-watched it, you're both correct!

^^ He's rolling in, it's common, it's usually subtle and it's a hard thing for refs to catch. Both refs are positioned behind the draw guys -- neither has a view down the line. The ref doing the spot check is backpedaling out before the whistle ... difficult for him to pick up gradual movement when ...

I don't think they will if they dominate in the second half. That's certainly not a given at this point though. Checked the box score. Army pulled their goalie and #2 didn't help. Total save % was about 35%. Did they have "one of those games "or was BU on fire? BU played well, particularl...

I'd say it's about 50/50... https://youtu.be/UtiyhuseRUs?si=ZXgTQg5BQP6XBDWr&t=23

Cleats vs Turf shoes? My kid (12U) just started playing on almost all turf this year after playing mostly grass before. I bought her new cleats this year but now I'm thinking she might need turf shoes. The fields are all HS outdoor turf (typically football fields). What is everyone's thought on thi...

That’s how we’ve always tried to attack Hop. Even back in 2016. They help all the way down to the crease. So if you lower the crease, you can throw back. We tried to do it for Casey Rees back then. Must be a Petro thing, and Koesterer, who played for him, runs it now. I knew Petro was like that. Th...

Have you ever seen the wheels come off quicker than they have this year on Marquette? I know they lost a couple transfers but they look like a MAC team. Ohio State is scoring at will today. More so reverting to the mean. The team graduated or lost to transfer 260 pts from last season, critical expe...

Yes - you can buy a one-team "school pass" for $9.95/mth

Yes, Kellie Young -- for all her foibles -- built the program from scratch to a #5 ranking. She could identify, recruit, and coach talent. Her dismissal may well have been warranted, but Louisville has way too much to offer to be stuck in this downward spiral under Scott Teeter. The facilities are ...

Speaking on Georgetown, specifically. There are a few details I'd rather not express publicly, but in short it has long felt to me that they have a scripted and very rigid offense ... "your job is to throw it X on this play, do not deviate" kind of thing. Players go there because it's an i...

From the front lines - Amplo has already lost the locker room, it's not due to yesterday's game. It's been a combination of on/off field antics that has been building over the last three years. No disrespect to Marquette or Hofstra, but the quality of student/athlete/service academy minded Midshipm...

Broadcast crew - thought they did well under the circumstances. Tough camera angle at midfield; they were smart to have additional feeds near the goals. For what it's worth, the Marquette bubble has a dark blue background near field level ... white balls = good visibility for goalies. Orange and gre...
