LaxPower Back-Up Stick

Brockport could be battling Plattsburgh this year for last place, but a confidence booster for SJF nonetheless. They did what they needed to do against a bad team. Geneseo and Cortland clear number 1 & 2, but time will tell who takes the top spot. Oneonta may have a few tricks up their sleeve th...

It’s almost our favorite time of year. What are we thinking about this year’s schedules? And how will our teams fair this upcoming season?

Things are shaping up. Really looking forward to the Oswego vs Cortland and the Oneonta vs New Paltz games. If Oneonta can keep putting up points, they should be in the top four in the end. Oswego surprised me, they’re winning with great defense and FOGO play.

Oneonta got out coached! Sad they can’t produce any offense. Cortland is good, but New Paltz showed us talent and confidence in the loss. Geneseo is by far the best team in the conference. Oswego is at the top of the conference, but that won’t last long.

And don’t look too deep into the Oneonta / Skidmore game. For some unknown reason, coach Owens started the freshman goalie??? I think that move totally derailed the team on that day. Not saying Oneonta would have won if the junior goalie started, but I’m certain the goal differential would have been...

Cortland is a mystery. Geneseo is the team to beat. New paltz has too many question marks. Oneonta is interesting too. With the addition of the freshman O’Neill, that could help to propel the entire program into the top tier in the conference. Coach Owens was given a gift and that could help with re...

Cortland loss to Nazareth!?!? WOW!! Nazareth seems to play some tough teams close, but haven’t come away with wins in those games. Then they close out Cortland! Wow.

That’s fair. Potsdam will know how their season will end up after the new paltz game. As far as new paltz, they have wins against some sub-par competition. Not sure their record is a good indication of the talent level on that team. Might be smoke and mirrors.

I tend to agree. But I have no faith in the bottom four. I don’t think the bottom four (Oswego, Potsdam, Brockport and Plattsburgh) have a chance at the playoffs. The Oneonta / New Paltz game will be interesting and could decide the 3/4 seed. NP is going to take two big losses in a row to Geneseo an...

What do we think? Are Oneonta, Oswego and New Paltz actually good teams this year? Or too soon to tell?
