Shades of 2010 for RPI when they lost to middlebury in 2nd round. Got totally outplayed. O well, maybe in another 14 years.

For the 3rd round: RIT already advanced Middlebury vs. Dickinson | 3 p.m. - Zink with 7 goals yesterday for Midd, Devil's backup Fogo took all draws yesterday and did well. Should be a very close game. Taking Midd by 2. St. John Fisher vs. St. Lawrence | 3 p.m. - Fisher playing with house money cou...

Is bowdoin the best team in the country? Any division?

Tufts is going to waste all of its goals in one game!

Need to save some of those bad boys

I'm most interested in these games today: Union vs Stevie - Union is solid and I don't know much about the Stangs RPI vs St Marys - RPI "should" roll, but the So. MD team can score and execute a game plan. Wes vs St John Fisher - similar to the above but maybe the Cards get a big scare. R...

i think there are three front runners for the title. RPI, RIT, and Salisbury. there is a gap to this next group. wesleyan, Tufts, St Lawrence, CNU, and Middlebury are in the next group. Disagree, I think there is one front runner. Salisbury. I also think RIT and tufts have an edge because of all th...

RPI exceeded expectation because of one reason - the best goalie in the country. Their tournament run will be dictated by his play. When he is lights out, they are hard to beat but if he has a bad game, then they will lose. He had 24 and 19 saves against RIT. Those numbers decline ever so slightly,...

Are you speaking from experience? Or just throwing out nonsense?

It does not make sense to me. Apparently this was decided before the LL tournament. Not sure why Mahoney winning Coach of the Year is a head scratcher. If the award was decided before the Semis there is no reason he shouldn't win, picked 4th in preseason (go back to beginning of this thread, SLU is...

Who has the hardest pod & who has the easiest? I think if Salisbury weren't a big favorite over the majority of the field we would say they got a tough draw - - three combined losses between the Gulls, Endicott, and Swarthmore. Tufts/Union/Stevenson could all advance out of that pod and it woul...

Shock the world. LL domination

Serious question though, how do they determine who is hosting quarterfinals and semis weekend of 5/18?

Well my son went to CNU and now he is head Wizamagot at Hogwarts.

How many filthy peasant NESCAC schools can say that?

First time ever, RIT doesn’t own the Liberty. Wish I could say I never doubted lol.

WOW

RPI hosting throughout?

Regarding the championship tomorrow, As an RPI Fan predicting: Engineers win 12-10 As someone who lives in reality: Tigers put it in overdrive looking for revenge on their home turf (which is ridiculous in of itself, because they finished with the same record and RPI with a head to head win, but tha...

Need 6 teams for an AQ

Multiple committee chairs have said over the years that a win in May means no more or less than a win in February. I am not arguing about what the committee has said. I am pointing out it is a completely flawed logic. Teams can improve or regress over a season. Young kids tend to grow more over a c...

Bullets: 5-5 vs RRO's , 2 unranked losses, 1 avenged in the tournament, with york faltering maybe only 1 non-rro loss which was avenged in the tournament, average w/l%, high SOS. Garnet: 2-2 vs RRO's, maybe 3-2 w/ york faltering (muhlenberg). Great w/l%, average sos . If the committee had to pick b...

This is awesome
