LaxPower Back-Up Stick

Coach Cottle is slowly changing the culture in the locker room. Players are being given a chance , imagine that. Big Win at HOP, Colgate, BU.....Congrats ... 6 is rolling , just give him the ball. 24 is so overrated , announcers are ridiculous ...he's the best players on the field, so special, it's ...

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 Midshipme...

It's all about the culture, fundamentals, execution and leadership. Do we have another Goalie that can step in, when #1 is struggling. It seems not so long ago the starting position was up for grabs (Per Coach) 19 turnovers , .370 Save percentage, 1-6 Man Up, 23 GB's , 2 assisted Goals 24- Zero Prod...

Zero chance #24 - Aka Mikey Powell has 100 points this season.

24 is used to special treatment, only practices 2 days a week and lacks the respect of his teammates. 100 points will never happen.

HP +5 , HP was fired up !

What a complete mess in Annapolis. The truth is, nobody really wants to be associated with him at this point.

Another departure, in John McCurry from NAPS to Delaware. Liam Gregorek flip from Navy to Hop is very interesting. His younger brother (Gavin) was on the 2023 Navy Lax Team. I bet the younger brother had a lot to do with the flip. The Navy Staff was very vocal with Gavin in a negative way, let's see...

Be looking for another flip in next two months. Two more are actively talking to Big Ten and ACC schools.

Congrats to Coach Amplo and Coach Camp for the GOLD !

Happy to see Coach Amplo on the sidelines. Perfect fit as an Assistant Coach working with Elite Lacrosse Players. Plus, Maybe some of Coach D's magic will rub off. It's two in the portal ! Never said it was more than that. I would suspect at least one/two more Navy commit will flip before in the 202...

Report from the front line : Another Navy Player has entered the portal and a third may soon follow.

Word on the recruiting circuit is that three more Navy commits may de-committing.

It's a dumpster fire folks.

Enjoyed seeing the USA win last night.

Nothing will change in 2024 – Unless: 1. Amplo changes this belief/statement- that going to a Service Academy = attending College/University life. That there is no difference between the two and that attending the Naval Academy –“isn’t all that special.” (He is clearly delusional) 2. Amplo should st...

Loyola’s staff always brings their “A” game to the play-offs. Navy looked like the same Navy during our six-game slide. Navy was not offensively efficient with the ball frequently dying in 29 and 24 stick for extended times. Zero chemistry and the normal starters were sitting around and watching 29 ...

Army dominated the game from start to finish. They were more physical, bigger, stronger, faster and executed a strong game plan. I hate saying it, but they were better prepared, and Coach A does an amazing job of long-term player development. We just couldn’t put any pressure on them offensively, co...

1. Army (Amplo has completely lost the confidence of the team and his health issues are a serious concern) 2. Army 3. Army 4. Navy 5. Army, but Navy wing play will make it interesting 6. Army has taken the time to build a strong foundation and invested in each players development I wouldn't be surpr...

The energy against BU was electric and job well done Coach Orsen with your defensive game plan. Offensively, The MIDS executed nicely and played strong team lacrosse. Impressive to see the ball moving with less hero ball. I was disappointed when they pulled 2 and sent in 24, It sends the wrong messa...

Since 24 hasn’t practice with the lacrosse team in over 2 weeks because of football, I doubt he will be on the field tonight. But stranger things have happened. Does anybody have any insight into why, 33 didn’t see any playing time at HC. He’s the most athletic of all the defenders, has proven to be...

Folks, It was bad to say the least. Only adjustment was dropping into a zone. I would love to hear the real "agreement" between football and lacrosse. After listening to the football coaches, listening to Coach Amplo on the PODCast earlier this year, it would seems that 24 might be spendin...

Solid effort against Hop and glad to see more MIDS getting some playing time. I was impressed with the intensity, effort and game plan. Disappointed in a few players effort and wouldn't be surprised to see a few more changes today. With that being said, Spring Football is about entire a critical par...

Interesting that the discussion has shifted to the number of 4/5 star athletes on the roster. Before putting any stock into this 4/5 star rating, take a deep look into the incestuous relationship between the clubs, tournaments and those who are actually l rating the players.I think you will be inter...

I am guessing he is out for the weekend. Hopefully Mikey Powell performs !

Anybody have any idea of the significance of the PINK jersey at practice?
