Another good one. Jack is the boss.

Let's go Hoyas.

At first I thought we got a bit of a bad draw but then again, there are no bad teams in this tournament and with Covid you are a test away from going home anyway. With the conditions this year I'd like to get in at least one game where we punch an old rival in the face. This is it. A 5 seed almost ...

Awesome win. McElroy is playing phenomenal lacrosse. Lots of assists today, balanced scoring. Great stuff.

Petkevitch was great. So many guys stepped up, it really was a total team performance. Villanova passes the look test. Rutgers getting in over Villanova would really be a shame.

lol, this has taken a strange and funny turn. My point was that the material used in metal lacrosse shafts hasn't changed much since the db803 and original Wonderboy. And those aren't so far removed from Mitsubishi Zeros in World War II*. Much of what you pay for now is inconsequential. The manufact...

Sportstop and last year's model are my go to. Metal shafts haven't changed drastically in a long while so you can get a prior year shaft that's basically the same as this year's for a lot less. Here's one example: https://www.sportstop.com/collections/mens-attack-and-middie-lacrosse-shafts/products/...

My take is Gtown can get in even with a loss to Nova on Thursday. They’d still win the head to head battle 2-1 vs Nova and have a win over Denver (which Nova couldn’t do). It is a very challenging predicament for those deciding. The really tricky part would be if Nova gets the automatic with a fina...

We'll see how the team responds but I think they will show up for the Villanova game like angry gorillas with their asses on fire. I can't imagine the leaders on this team will allow the season to end with consecutive bad performances.

If Villanova beats Lehigh, after Georgetown's loss to Loyola, assuming neither Nova or G-Town win the Big East Tournament, could the Semifinal between the two of them end up being for a spot in the NCAA Tournament? Big East should get 2, Denver is in. The other is probably the winner of Georgetown-...

If Georgetown loses, do they have work to do to make the postseason, assuming they don't win the Big East Tournament? Georgetown has to beat Villanova or they will be watching the NCAA tournament from home. If they win, do you think they make it regardless of what happens in the title game? No unfo...

Georgetown has to beat Villanova or they will be watching the NCAA tournament from home.

The Nova Denver result makes tonight more interesting and also more important IMO. I personally think Hoyas would be playing full out to win either way and my belief is the staff and players would have it no other way. But...given it’s a very strong Nova in Semis how exactly are you “supposed “ to ...

1. Denver
2. G-Town
3. Nova
4. Providence

Yep

Maybe as an old goalie I am biased but I think McElroy deserves a ton of credit. Yes some great D helped for some easier saves but he came up big many times. None bigger than the save to start the 3rd quarter 2 men down. With no Haley, struggles at the face off and some uncharacteristic undisciplin...

Good saves but the defense was only giving Providence terrible shots. Great defense all around.

Voted Georgetown on heart. It's not crazy considering the guys they are getting back healthy and the dominance over Denver at face off.

Head is on North Carolina. That's a really dangerous team that has not peaked.

Well deserved, indeed! The win Saturday was important in many respects. Most importantly, the team played with great toughness, both mentally and physically. GU reacted well to the 3-0 blitz by Denver, settled down and chipped away. The coaching was great in terms of game prep, most notably, handli...

Yep. Hoyas had to win this one to get a quality win late season.
