Three Lafayette players have been named in a lawsuit involving the death McRae Williams.
Parents filing a civil lawsuit.
Wonder what, if any, evidence has changed.

Patriot League 2019
Re: Patriot League 2019
In the name of transparency, there was a link to a picture of the three accused boys etc. As this is a new situation for us, I removed the link until we decide how to handle issues of this ilk. This should be a one-time event. Just need to decide how to manage links, pics, etc.. Not fake-news but news that is about college players who are young and have not yet been convicted.

Fair enough to me.
A fraudulent intent, however carefully concealed at the outset, will generally, in the end, betray itself.

Re: Patriot League 2019
The Three Players article was originally posted within this Patriot League thread and, for now, we're putting it in Hamsterdam. People should be able to discuss this. The question is where. i.e. Lafayette Lacrosse fans and other people who know these boys shouldn't have this discussion staring them in the face every time they want to read about goings-on in the Patriot League. But... People should be able to discuss this. So we moved it. If you're curious, the Post Policy question is, What to do with Not-So-Positive Posts?

Re: Patriot League 2019
My annualLSM - Ryan McNulty, Loyola
Jon Heisman, Bishop Shanahan (PA) props post.
Heisman over 400 prep wins.
McNulty, the top recruit to come out of that school and not
surprising a ball handling defenseman, as that was
Heisman’s background. Be curious if McNulty employs the
patented Heisman over the top takeaway, though I’d
suspect Toomey finds that move too risky.
Spencer and McNulty and Stover, the stars, this is their year if there ever was one for Loyola, discounting of course 2012.

Reading that Bucknell was on the short end of the stick vs York this past weekend. How did they do in the scrimmage vs Towson?

From a Tweet I saw this weekend:
Final score . Towson 12 - Bucknell 13. Tu with 26 shots. Buck w 36 (unofficially)

Re: Patriot League 2019
Colgate made a statement tonight with their thrashing of Syracuse in the Dome. Should be a great season! Go Hounds!
Re: Patriot League 2019
Superior effort by the Red Raiders in the Dome. Sweet way to start the season. New coaching staff and a new attitude pays big dividends.

Colgate's W was big. Army's W was bigger.
Re: Patriot League 2019
Given how the first couple PL teams have played, will loyola run the table in conference play, or will another team other than Lehigh challenge?

Re: Patriot League 2019
just one person's opinion, but Loyola can run the table in most leagues. They are well coached, have star talent and depth. As a fan of another league member, i wish them well and look forward to see how the league unfolds this year. should be fun to watch.

Re: Patriot League 2019
Army look good but they did last year early as well before collapsing and they haven't played even a close game with Loyola since Spencer stepped on campus. They'll have to break those trends but I think they may have found a more consistent offense.
Navy is a decent team who we will learn a lot about this weekend but they tend to throw their season away early in the PL tournament. Hopefully they can avoid that this time.
Colgate seemed to get brushed aside pretty easily by Maryland so for jury is out on them but they should be in the hunt.
Lehigh won't be a factor until they get healthy and with Pettit out for the year it may not even matter that some of the other guys should come back.
I haven't seen Boston U, Bucknell, Holy Cross or Lafayette play yet. I don't think Holy Cross or Lafayette will be factors in the PL tournament this year. Bucknell usually gives the hounds trouble so if I had to pick a game for them to lose it would be in Lewisburg. My guess is Loyola will win the league again though.
Re: Patriot League 2019
thats what i was thinking too. WIth Pettit and spence both out for lehigh it really diminishes their offense output so maybe they wont challenge loyola as much what some have thought in preseason. Colgate looks better than last year due to their new staff, plus they beat a nice Cuse team. BU will be good because of Chris gray and that offense. But the teams i worry about the most are definitely the service academiesTheBigIguana wrote: ↑Wed Feb 20, 2019 6:24 pmArmy look good but they did last year early as well before collapsing and they haven't played even a close game with Loyola since Spencer stepped on campus.

Re: Patriot League 2019
Regardless of whether they win or lose, Lehigh is extremely likely to clinch a Patriot League tournament berth today. At this point, the only way that I can see they miss the tournament is if there is a 6-way tie between teams at 5-3 for spots 1-6. This would take an extremely specific -- and highly unlikely -- set of outcomes from here on out to happen.
I believe that Loyola is likely to clinch their berth today also with a win over Colgate, but I haven't checked those scenarios just yet.

Re: Patriot League 2019
Lehigh has now officially clinched their berth for the 2019 Patriot League tournament. They are very likely to clinch a first round bye in the coming weeks, but that has not happened just yet.
Loyola and Army still technically can miss the tournament, but only on very complicated sets of tiebreakers if lots of teams end up finishing at 4-4. This is almost certainly not going to happen. Both teams will likely clinch their spots in the Patriot League tournament next week, regardless of the outcome of their games.
There are essentially three spots remaining in the tournament up for grabs now.

Re: Patriot League 2019
The next few weeks will be very telling for every single team. Given next weeks matchup between Loyola and Lehigh, the winner of that will gain the inside track and most likely host the tournament given everything else is smooth sailing
