Everyone have their chips&dips, voodoo pins and stuffed tiger cuddlies ready for noon? Make the Hvd game meaningful!
I'm going to give the athletic dept the benefit of the doubt and say that possibly stumbling into an ILT berth won't influence the postseason eval of the realities of the program.

Some top performances in the Ivy League this week: Offense: Matt Brandau, Yale: (3,5) 8 points vs Albany, (5,4) 9 points vs Hofstra = 17 points Nate Davis, Dartmouth: (3,3) 6 points vs Brown Willem Firth, Cornell (2,3) 5 points vs Harvard Nate Kabiri, Princeton: (2,3) 5 points vs Penn CJ Kirst, Cor...

When the set O is what we see, take the unsettled shot & take your lumps if it's saved, so what if it leads to a break the other way?!?! You're 3-10. The LSMs & rushing D-men shoot more than the SSDMs on breaks, except #5 takes his shots, and he usually makes a good decision. Has #23 taken a...

Bears played the first team the entire game. #10 was dressed for the game and took part in warmups but didn't play, he's missed lots of time this year. No wraps, no brace. Maybe because it's the last home game, and I think he's a capt, so not just wearing sweats. Pretty much a typical Brown game for...

Congrats on a good win and retaining the O.S. Cup. Good luck in AE.

Highest seed: makes the regular season record even more important. Of course, if the league isn't geographically compact or coherent, I can see knowing early.

A school like that is interesting. Not many D1 head spots out there so usually you could say that even at a spot like DM there would be a number of interested candidates but there is so little chance of success there I'm not sure you can say that. I don't see any hot up and coming D1 coordinator wa...

I think that the Brown game is part of a three way annual competition between Brown, Bryant and Providence. It's for a best in Rhode Island cup. I don't recall what it's called Ocean state cup. PC is 1-1, lost to Bryant. Bryant wins with a Tues win. If everyone's tied 1-1, I believe there's no awar...

I can see the point of the previous two posts, but then I think: where the #e££ else were the attack points going to come from??? One of my recent posts was about the attack in the Dartmouth game going 6/2, 2 goals each, and how that was a good game for the attack overall this year. Then I re-read i...

What should be the plan for Bryant? Hard try for a win to keep up the positive vibes? Get the starters enough reps to get ready for Harvard and then see what the rest of the squad can do? Or wait to see how the game plays out? I'm on team get-some-reps, except maybe starting attack should stay on th...

Got more 2nd half. Final for starting attack 6/2, but more importantly 2/2/2 even goal distribution. Movement in the right direction.
Next stop Allston. 3:30 gametime, we'll know if the game means anything by then.

Competitive 1st half, seems fortunate BG started off shooting low as #11 was on those. Bruno's #29 is shooting more than early in the year and that's a good thing, it seems like earlier he was passing up potential shots. Maybe just a function of a new guy feeling comfortable/gaining confidence. Need...

Anyone know Daly's contract status? Asking for a friend :roll: But seriously, it's needed knowledge so fans can get a handle on framing how the coaching, recruiting, and other program decisions are being made and what the future prospective and perspective seems to be for a team that's currently 2-9...

Brandau could surpass 100 points in regular season play which would be astounding, I’m don’t believe even Lyle Thompson accomplished that. I was curious about this as well. According to the U Albany website, below are Lyle Thompson's seasons as an upperclassman at Albany: 2015: 121 points 2014: 128...

Brown's IL Tourney began 4/13. Next game has the coach/captain dynamic. Massey 83% Brown win. Can Brown win and still be knocked out of IL Tourney chance before the Harvard game? And something I asked much earlier: is just making the IL tourney your aim for this program? Is that enough? Because that...

... The irony I see is JoeWillie is the only pollster who I think shows zero bias, plus actually looks at games and not his Twitter follower count (ahem IL Media poll…), and didn’t get paid! But his are pretty darn good. Yes, but JW will never get that sweet sweet IL podcast without playing to the ...

3 assists total, all by middies, on 13 goals and White Shoes is right, it's a step forward. Hooo boy. Tigers 8 of 12 goals assisted. Saw only last 1/3 of 1st quarter & even with that I was: this doesn't look like the usual offensive offense. Cutters. Passes getting to cutters! SOG!: 26 of 39 for...

"Anger is an energy. Anger is an energy."- John Lydon. Angry team squeaks out a win to keep slim ILT hopes alive. Couldn't attend, watched w/o sound on phone. Looked like Brown was double-shifting the first midfield, but they had enough energy to get through 60 mins. #38 had a good first h...

One disappointing thing about the lack of assists is that the Daly staff has been good at recruiting all-around attack. He's usually had two starters comfortable & competent at working from behind the goal. Started with Molloy (not his guy of course) & McCaleb, then McCaleb & Kniffin (on...
