Great comments, I did say "they go to some expensive private or overpriced out-of-state school that has "ehhhh" academic standards to play a D2 sport". Most all the schools I am familiar with allow stacking of athletic and academic money. We all know lacrosse doesn't go above 40...

1- "ehhhhh" D2 colleges - I have watched a large number of high school girls work their asses off in AP and honors classes getting terrific grades for all their years of high school. Then when it's time to pick a college, they go to some expensive private or overpriced out-of-state school...

I guess I just had higher expectations for a two time D3 player and attacker of the year. I expected more than just a goal a game from a starter. I am sure Denver was anticipating something like Rhatigan jumping from Mercer to Northwestern. But you’re comparing apples to oranges here. Rhatigan jump...

It is interesting that Earley has not been nearly as effective as people expected going to Denver this year. Is this because Middlebury was so much better than most teams they played with crazy depth? I guess I wonder who expected more than she’s given? In her move from D3 to D1 she’s done a pretty...

Then gap between D2 and D3 is even greater than the gap between D1 and D2. This seems like a broad brush. I bet the better D3 girls might have something to say about the gap to D2. Many chose their D3 schools for academic reasons in addition to strong lacrosse programs. Not true. the top 3 or 4 D3 ...

Whoever picked UVA for a surprising year. Good job. The camera angles are painful. Just painful. I haven’t seen this poor quality in a game in a long time . I’m telling you when men play later at this facility they will Miraculously have sound and announcers You may be right about the men’s game. I...

As much as it is a pleasure to watch Denver’s defense move as a unit I get very little pleasure when watching Denver’s offense.

First team to miss a FPS from a prime hash loses.

17 cards with 9 being green. That was a fugly game.

GAMES IN PROGRESS: Colorado up 3 on Marquette Pitt up 5-3 over Duke USC and Temple tied at 3 Just turned on Pitt v duke - did I hear right that Duke already has 3 yellow cards in the first quarter? Although they just said it was 2Q so maybe it’s the graphic is showing the wrong quarter. No you are ...

A lot of hype about Treanor not a lot results. I think that's true of Syracuse and not just Treanor. Curious what results is she not living up to? If I am not misremembering I believe the Orange were in the final 4 last year? Based on their roster last year and the year before - they underperformed...

Come on - this is not what Fanlax is supposed to be. We all love lacrosse and we all love women's lacrosse. This is a forum to talk about lacrosse. One thing that I always appreciated about Fanlax/LaxPower was that everyone (mostly everyone) handled themselves in a respectful way. No one should be ...

RIP Muff

Great player, but Masera flops more than Lebron. What a turd way to lose. A lot of floppers on SB ...good thing they are supposed to enforce flopping :| Cuse needs a lot of work......They may and should drop out of top 10. To lose a game when opponent goalie makes like 3 saves is pretty bad. As alw...

The majority of the women's lacrosse coaches across D1 are former All-Americans that were great players. Great players do not automatically translate into great coaches. It is rare that the top players from most other sports become really good coaches. There are some great coaches that are all time...

That last green is exhibit 1 for why the green card is horrible . Inside the 30 it’s a quick whistle. Between the 30 a minute penalty? Idiocy

Could be a 12 shot game for scene...

Who could blame her….it’s probably the only way she can stay warm.
