The moment none of you have been waiting for! Spidey's NCAA ROUND 1 Lines! Anyone else feel like this season absolutely flew by??? Round 1 will be interesting. Putting out lines for some of these games will be tough, but I plan on doing lines for every game of the tournament. Let's see how we do......

Arizona State beat Oregon in the Pac 12 tournament 19-12 nice win for them. Then they lost to Standford which is expected.

Add William and Mary to the list of openings. Great school, nice area, within range of any of a number of hotbeds...you'd think someone could take this job and turn things around? Is that a nice area? It's near Norfolk I think, which has horrible congestion. That general area seems to be crowded an...

Watched the York vs Widener game, Widener was up early 2-0 I thought they might make a game of it but then York took over and it wasn't much of a game 16-4 at the end. Nice weather though....York not having the best year but still way ahead of most D3 schools.

Impressive 2nd half of the season for Penn State. Really surprised they ended it beating MD & JHU.

https://ncaamarket.ncaa.org/jobs/19999555/head-coach-lacrosse Reposted it today. Either don’t have anyone yet or want to make it official looking as season winds down. Sitting here at the end of another draining day at work the thought of applying for this is a fun, sort of like that movie where Jo...

I’m somewhat stunned by the amount of focus on coastal Carolina. It’s the 36th best regional university in the south according to usnews. I hadn’t heard of many of the schools ranked above it and I wager most posters on this board haven’t either. Conway is not in the top 36 prettiest college towns ...

York not doing so well this year at 2-3 and a game against Gettysburg today, unusual for them.

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...

The reason we have 140 D1 Women's team is to meet Title IX requirements to keep up with men's participation in the bigger sports. The 75 on the guys side? Don't care. How many D1 Women's Soccer teams are there? 347. We haven't even hit peak lacrosse numbers to match soccer yet. There are many teams...

I've read articles that colleges recruit lax players because the parents still tend to be upper-middle class (and up). Given the horrible financial state of academic institutions it makes sense that if your going to start a new sport you would target the affluent (or semi-affluent). It's anecdotal b...

Kinda interested in UMASS vs Holy cross. UMASS has played a tough schedule so far and are 0-2 but 2 very good losses to good teams. Hard to gauge how good they are after years of A10 domination I’m going with UMASS by 5 I was surprised with UMASS score yesterday. While BC & Ivies are doing well...

I don't understand why schools will have such high travel budgets for non-revenue sports. Can't they just form/join a different conference then the football/basketball that they're in for the other sports? Keep them closer to home so they spend less? Of course it's not in the fans interest but seems...

Dstats.PNG Can someone help me understand the stats for D players? I get GB for ground ball & CT for caused turnovers, what are the other stats? I think SV% & S are saves which only apply to goalies. I find it hard in this sport to understand through stats only who is a good defensive player.

18-19 year old kid makes a mistake. Not exactly uncommon. Will have to sit out a game and you can see on film one of the senior players clearly talking to her after the incident. She let her team down and I am sure she knows it. Plenty of punishment for a freshman IMHO. Clearly a very talented play...

Heard this on the radio regarding Caitlin Clark the other day. She is literally the face of college basketball - Men's OR Women's! Name me a bigger name on the men's side. Pretty amazing. She sells out every arena she enters. I looked up tickets to the Iowa - MD game last November since MD was the ...

Not Lax but since the season hasn't started & this thread is Misc topics.... I've been watching Caitlin Clark (Iowa WBB) the last 2 seasons and it's been so much fun. I credit my daughter playing WLax with getting me into women's sports I never paid any attention before that. So now that I like ...

I'm not sure how the demographic issues colleges are facing impacts the decisions for athletics. I hear from so many people in academics that enrollment has fallen off a cliff and many small schools will close. As an outsider I want to blame the highly paid administrators who've been spending like ...
