Tufts has an opportunity for revenge after losing to Salisbury and Wes. Would love to see them step up their game. They have had a lot to think during their break. Which team will show up this May - the one who demolished CNU, Union, and Middlebury or the one that gave Williams and Hamilton a 8 goal...

I have to say I think Amherst got a raw deal. They should have gotten in over Noke but understand why the comittee did not take 5 NESCAC teams. I think the head to head really hurt them against Bowdoin. On another note - How is the second weekend going to work? So will the games be at Salisbury or a...

At this point I don’t see anymore bid thieves out there. I’ll give my last go at guessing the 10 bids. This is assuming RIT, Salisbury, and Wesleyan win. RPI, Tufts, St. Lawrence, CNU, Middlebury, W&L, Union, Swarthmore, Amherst, Gettysburg. Just missed… Bowdoin and Roanoke. The last two spots ...

Saying that Salisbury is far and away the best D-III lacrosse program isn’t exactly a hot take. My point was that next to Salisbury, there has been no other league that has been as dominate as the NESCAC and the Liberty. On other note, everyone was bashing Tufts for losing to Hamilton in the confer...

A lot of people predicted that Tufts would have a down year and while the loss to Hamilton was not ideal, they were still very successful. They beat a lot of really good teams and given the amount of talent that they lost last year, I think they far exceeded expectation for this upcoming season. The...

The "RamLine" Ham @ Tufts(-6.5) Trin @ Wes(-5) Wil @ Bow(-1) Am(-1.5) @ Midd Tufts (-6.5) - Self explanatory. Side note: as a self-aware Tufts hater, I think just edging out a few tight games (Williams / Amherst / Bowdoin) actually helps this team rather than hurts. Credit to whoever had ...

Regional rankings updated. And they now appear to be in ranking order, and not alphabetical. https://www.ncaa.com/rankings/lacrosse-men/d3/regional-rankings interesting. with this new info, it starts to give an idea of who could be getting at large. looks like wins is more important than losses. as...

I think the NESCAC and the Liberty get 5 of the 10 pools C bids with the Liberty getting 3 and the NESCAC getting two (excluding the conference winner). Hard sell for the NESCAC getting 4 this year. Everyone tallked about Bowdoin being so good this year but they have one quality win against Amherst....

Bowdoin is the last team to get in from the NESCAC if Tufts win the tournament if they even get in. The order as I see it is Tufts, Wes, Amherst, and then Bowdoin. If Williams, Trinity, or Hamilton win the tournament, they have no shot. Amherst has much more quality wins beating both RPI and Swathmo...

Prediction for the Tufts - Bowdoin game. A lot on the line tonight.

Has anyone talked about how the tufts coach is underperforming? He was gifted a top tier program and has fumbled every year. Only 1 championship game appearance and zero rings… but hey we have a lot of Instagram followers! Look at the talent he has had the past few years and he can’t win the big ga...

Since 2010, There is have been 8 NESCAC team in the NC games with 4 wins. The only league that has that resume is Coast-to-Coast Athletic Conference (Salisbury). The other league that has significant representation is the Liberty at 5 with RIT and Union in the NC game. If you go back to 1999 and you...

Let's talk lacrosse. Looks like the tournament is locked up meaning we have the 8 teams in. The only team locked in on their slot is Hamilton at #8. One through three is dependent on Wednesday night game. Tufts and Bowdoin looks like they are playing for the one or the three sed. Assuming that Wes ...

The only team in my mind that is a lock for the NCAA from the NESCAC is Tufts if they don't win the tournament. Wes I would say is the next team to have the greatest chance. Bowdoin chance to be a lock is all dependent on if they can beat Tufts or not. If they do, then I would say they are lock als...

Guys - lets keep this to lax. All the BS is painful. The trolling, the personal attacks etc is just wrong. This is about lax. If people want to analyze play then that is fine but the insults are just stupid. Lets talk about tufts-amherst and how Wes upset threw a wrench in the NESCAC tournament. Tuf...

The next two weeks are big in the NESCAC. Right now - Five teams can win the league and get the home field for the tournament. Bowdoin sitting at 6-0 are the clear favorite but need to play William, Amherst, Wes, and Tufts. Not an easy last four game. Tufts 6-1 needs to play Middlebury, Amherst, and...

Anyone have insight as to why Middlebury is a middle of the road team this year? Seems like a lot of people got it wrong since Middlebury and Bowdoin were supposed to be heads above the rest. While Bowdoin has disappointed, seems like Middlebury just laid a turd for this season. Any analysis on both...
