Stick check changed the game, savvy moved by a veteran coach.

Curious how others feel about the stick check called by SU coach. Savvy or would you call it something else?
Don't all FO sticks become illegal to some degree throughout the game?

Another year and another early set of departures for Centennial Teams in the NCAA tournament...saw a tweet that asked the question: "How many more bad NCAAs will it take for the CC to stop be considered top tier?" The conference has brand names, but when was the last, BIG time, OOC win fo...

He aggressively fondled his nards for a while right towards the union bench

Well can’t say it’s unexpected. Leave it to Stevenson to take a great moment and show their true character.

What did he do?

Coach Webster ROBBED of COY. 3-straight CCs. Participation trophy all too common nowadays. So...3-straight CCs. Is this a lifetime achievement award? With the returners Webster had, he was expected to win the CC. MVP- agreed 100%, but you had the wrong fan that got all bent out of shape about COY. ...

Didn’t the Denison HC hire his own assistants?

Just because it was expected, doesn't mean it's not earned. Webster has been the best coach in the CC since 2010 (most CC champs -- 7) and he's been awarded CC COTY three times ('10,'11 and '22). Doesn't add up. Just because it wasn't what you expected, doesn't mean it's not earned. The awards of t...

Predictable spreads for this weekend: Ursinus -4.5 / Haverford Muhlenberg -9.5/ Mcdaniel Gettysburg -1.5 / SWAT Dickinson -2.5 / WAC What's the thoughts? I’m going with: Ursinus 16 Haverford 8 Haverford hangs close for about 3Q but Ursinus’ experienced O hits the back of the net in Q4. Muhlenberg 1...

My CC Rankings at the moment: 1. Gettysburg- No surprise, talent everywhere, great coaching 2. Swarthmore- Solid defense, incredible offense, a lot of youth, team is in a great spot for next few years 3. Dickinson- Talent everywhere, very solid goalie, interesting loss to Muhlenburg 4. Ursinus- Hav...

The fact that some polls don’t have Swat in the top 20 let alone at all is a massive head scratcher. They are very talented this year and will be for at least the next few years. I don’t see you ranking them in the top 20 either. That’s because I don’t have a ranking for them to be part of. I would...

What I find funny is when people (Dan Kaplan included) give some teams credit for close losses but not other teams.

100%

At least you don’t have Stevenson ranked 16…a team in the top 20 with a losing record. They must get ranked solely for hosting the Mustang Classic as opposed to performance :lol: I don't see Stevenson at 16 in any poll. I see 17 in one. Inside Lacrosse has them with a 4-6 record at #16 for week 7. ...

If any of them don’t have Swat in there, it just proves how biased and invalid these rankings typically are (USA lax magazine seemingly the worst of the 3, consistently). Sure we want our favorite teams to win but rankings should be based on CURRENT performance, not prior years or a “name.”
