Pretty sure Salisbury also hosted women's lacrosse this weekend, so they spaced the games out and had the men's games in the later afternoon and evening. Today's game would be as late as possible to give them more time to rest and recover.

Coaches who leave on their own are not unceremoniously removed from the roster without an announcement of their leaving, especially after being there for 13 years.

Yeah, really gotta wonder what is going on there. Heard nothing but positive things about Cavallaro as a coach, it is a great school and lax alums I know from there all have very good jobs and are successful. Really thought 2017-2019 they were on track to become a regular top ten team. Guys like Ke...

Tough year for the NCAC, a conference definitely losing its lacrosse luster. Formerly, a college coach, now a high school coach and know several players at various schools in the NCAC. If anything I would say the league is the most interesting it has ever been. While it has forever been a two-horse...

The down year for the NESCAC continues as Midd, Bowdoin and Tufts coast to the Quarterfinals, all playing on the road. Yes, only 3 of the final 8 teams in D3 are NESCAC teams. Middlebury’s horrible year season in particular just won’t end. Imagine what they might have accomplished this year if they...

Also good question about ROY/POY. 2 best defensemen of the last 25 years in NESCAC (in my opinion but not exactly a hot take) were Jed Raymond (3x First Team AA, 2x National Defense Player of the Year, 1999 National Player of the Year) and Spike Malangone 3x AA, National Defense Player of the Year)...

Wanted to get opinions on if York & Stevenson split their potential two matchups, is there any way the committee gets both of them in regardless who wins the conference championship IF they meet. In the past it's been a clear long shot but from what I've seen from these two teams this year, the...

Noke currently sitting w/ what looks to be the most potent offense in the country on paper - 20.00 GPG. Let's see what they've done against teams that matter (Regionally). - Best W 14-8 against HSC - 17-6 over Centre - 13-15 L to Dickinson - After that, they have nothing. These teams already played...

No AQ for Coastal Lacrosse Conference, so they are Pool B teams. I'm not sure if they assess Pool B or Pool C first though. But one would assume that Salisbury and CNU will each get in and which one gets B and which gets C is inconsequential.

Colorado College will not make the tournament this year. They are independent, so in Pool B consideration. CNU or Salisbury will get the 1 Pool B spot. Transylvania is the likely AQ from the Heartland Conference.

C'mon now. Tufts has won like 1000 NESCAC championships in a row. One mid-week slip up (which seems to happen every year for Tufts) does not remove their crown.

Salisbury has wins over CNU, Lynchburg, Gettysburg, York, Stevenson.

RPI has wins over RIT, Union, York, Muhlenberg, Middlebury, Williams.

I would say their resumes are fairly even. Both have one really good win (RIT/CNU), and a whole bunch of wins against 15-30 caliber teams.

Does this site have any Admins/Moderators, or any sort of community post standards?

Tough to get top level talent that’s needed when admission is about 40k more a year then their eastern shore neighbors. Why would a high school kid pick wac over SU at this point?. Taking lax out of it Salisbury is about 10x more appealing to a 18-22 year old kid then Chestertown. Why would they ev...

Oh. No comment there.

Relax dude, sorry I forgot Muhlenberg was ranked. They have a cup cake schedule for such a highly regarded team. Last year Muhlenberg's out of conference schedule was RIT, Colorado College, RPI, and St. John Fisher, all of whom were top-20 or NCAA tournament teams, along with Scranton and Desales, ...

Swarthmore by 7-10. As faithful as you all are, WAC is simply not good.

Who are Trinity's recent wins against?

There are now 5 regions in D3 lacrosse, named Region 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5. North/South doesn't really exist anymore.
