Q has them preseason number 1, hardly a surprise even though some fans think he is overly critical of the program.
Re: VIRGINIA LACROSSE 2020
Little better? UVA scored 11 goals in 2q with some new faces at midfield . Hounds transition d is a bit suspect.blue angels wrote: ↑Mon Jan 20, 2020 11:34 amWord is Virginia went really cold and didn't score a goal against Bucknell in the 1st quarter of their scrimmage.

Was the Spencer and Stover show in last year opener, without em Loyola O is the more likely offense to struggle unless Savio wins most faceoffs but that matchup with LaSalla is more likely to be a push.

look fwd to it.
Re: VIRGINIA LACROSSE 2020
This is at Klockner, Loyola has only won once at Klockner (2016). You have all the pieces to the puzzle coming back while we do not. Some on our thread predict a squeak out win, or a close loss. That's a no from me. I have a gut feeling that UVA will blowtorch my teamwgdsr wrote: ↑Mon Jan 20, 2020 6:34 pmscrimmages mean nada and loyola has been a very tough out most years.blue angels wrote: ↑Mon Jan 20, 2020 11:34 amWord is Virginia went really cold and didn't score a goal against Bucknell in the 1st quarter of their scrimmage.

And the Hounds don't run as fast on grass, particularly if it's a wet field. I predict UVA. Gonna be a good game no matter what.

Re: VIRGINIA LACROSSE 2020
It’s early. if Saustad still out, Virginia will likely start 2 1st years at close. Don’t know Moore’s injury either but he is out. Toomey is a fine coach. Anything can happen.

Re: VIRGINIA LACROSSE 2020
We're going to water down the field just like we do for VPI in football and basketball. If you don't believe we didn't do it to beat them this yuear, just cruise TechSideline and you'll be convinced.

Re: VIRGINIA LACROSSE 2020
Thanks. Matt Moore really benefitted by being coached in high school by Terp and College Lacrosse Hall of Famer, Frank Urso. Urso was unstoppable.Cooter wrote: ↑Fri Jan 24, 2020 12:44 pm Virginia Preview on LSN:

Tiffany said that Cormier would be on the field a lot. Watching UVa in fall ball, Cormier seemed to be one of UVa's top 5 offensive players.

Re: VIRGINIA LACROSSE 2020
I could see Cormier being a breakout star this year. I really liked his game and he causes major matchup issues when being covered by a short stick .Cooter wrote: ↑Fri Jan 24, 2020 5:35 pmI think the Terps deserve a "player to be named later" for that.blue angels wrote: ↑Fri Jan 24, 2020 1:33 pmThanks.

Former UVa Head Lacrosse Coach and Athletic Director Gene Corrigan passed away this week. He played for Duke and was also the AD at Washington & Lee and ND and Commissioner of the ACC. He's the father of UVa Alum and Head Coach at ND Kevin Corrigan. Here is the link to the story on VirginiaSports.com.

Re: VIRGINIA LACROSSE 2020
We randomly had the tickets right behind Coach Urso for the Duke-UVA semifinal in Philly (he said he was there to cheer on Matt Moore). Got a picture with my son (we're huge Terps fans as I'm an alum). Super nice guy. Urso was one of the best players in NCAA history, and seems to be even greater as a person.blue angels wrote: ↑Fri Jan 24, 2020 1:33 pmThanks.

I guess Dom knew what he was doing when he signed the 8th grader. PC will rule.

Re: VIRGINIA LACROSSE 2020
There is discussion about redshirting this year’s number 1 recruit, Connor Shellenberger, due to the logjam of upperclassmen players ready to contribute on offense. Lars stated that he’s ready to play at this level but it might depend on injuries.
Re: VIRGINIA LACROSSE 2020
really? If i were a coach and i saw that a freshman was D1 ready to play, i'd stick him in even with the upperclassmen getting minutes.blue angels wrote: ↑Thu Jan 30, 2020 9:09 am There is discussion about redshirting this year’s number 1 recruit, Connor Shellenberger, due to the logjam of upperclassmen players ready to contribute on offense.

When you have a line of kraus, moore, aitken, laviano and a bunch of other top tier recruits in the wings who can play, that strikes fear into most coaches. Add Shellenberger into that mix (heck rotate him as a middie or an attackman w/e) with the hype he came in with and safe to assume that hes doing great in practice, then play.
UVA is a candy store oozing with talent because of the way you recruit, how you recruit, and how you developed players. Dear god i am DREADING, the game for Loyola against you guys on February 8th.

lose only kraus at attack next year, and payton ready... can he redshirt twice?
