VIRGINIA LACROSSE 2020

[Typical Lax Dad]

I didn't see the game, but when I look at the boxscore for the Princeton at Virginia game things look pretty even:
Shots P-46, V-48
Shots on goal P-30, V-28
Saves P - 16, V - 14
Turnovers P-15, V-15
Clears P 20-28, V 17-19
Ground Balls P -37, V-50
Face-off P - 14, V-17
Man-up P 1-4, V 1-3

In the end the thing that sticks out the most might be the shooting pct
P 16-46, .348
V 12-48, .250

Allowing 16 goals is not good, and UVa is starting a lot of young guys on the defense, but on the other hand shouldn't Virginia's high powered offense be scoring a little more. It doesn't look like UVa's 6th starter, Jeff Connor has been scoring much with 3 assists on the season and nothing on Saturday. Freshman Peter Garno has contributed 3 goals and 1 assist on the season. So it looks like UVa might be still seeking a 6th man on the starting offense. Of course, Aitken's I-67 shooting pct is helping too much.

Dox’s shooting will come around. It happens.

After two wins that showed signs of promise as well as areas of vulnerability and a loss to a team that was--albeit foolishly--unranked, the defending NC has yet to compensate for its losses in the middle of the field and its best defenseman. Next two games allow them a chance to regroup.

It will be interesting to see if UVa's offense gets well against High Point on Tuesday. High Point is allowing an average of 19 goals per game.

The game is to be shown on ESPNU at 5pm from Charlottesville. The first good look at UVa for some us with the ACCN not really being readily available round here.

I'll have to catch the HP game on replay. I'll be in class from 5:30 to 7:30. HP won last year and at the end of the Starsia era. After the Princeton loss, UVA should be ready for the Panthers, but who knows, they have yet to play to their potential for a full game this year. It will be a good chance for the young d to get more game experience and maybe for a couple of other players to contribute offensively.

as champi0ns, uva sh0u1d aways win, if they d0n't win, they ain't champi0ns, b00m!

Tonight can be a great momentum game for the Cavs offense. Mainly, the guys 6-8 on the depth chart to gain some confidence against a defense that’s been letting up a lot of goals. Would like the win first and foremost, but would want to see some good games from the guys we don’t hear from too often.

1st Q - HP up 4-2.

[Matnum PI]

Have they been running motorcross on the hills around Klockner? Looks like almost all dirt.
Cormier with 3 goals in the first quarter.

[Cooter]

Virginia up 10-5.
A couple goals by Jared Connors, and another by Cormier on the crease.

UVa ball 38 seconds to halftime.

10-7 at half.

UVA looks good. The pieces need to come together but lots of impressive pieces. Up and down the field. Like several other teams, I look at UVA and think, OK, that's one of the contenders.

High Point has some talented, fun players.

[Mr3Putt]

If HP realizes Rode is left handed, they are up by 2-3 goals !

Has HP won any face offs (missed the 1st half)?
