WOW! If Lars had not pulled (9 for 10) LaSalla when the score was 10-1, the final score could have ended up 30 to 3. When was the last time Hopkins had an opponent clear their bench mid way through the 3rd Quarter? There was a very distinct difference in athleticism today.
Hopkins really needs to write 2022 off and start developing under classmen for the future. The current trend is extremely dangerous. College lacrosse is better when Hopkins is one of the top teams every year. They cannot let this downhill momentum drive them past the point of no return.
Uh, NO.
Hopkins really needs to focus on winning the Syracuse game.

Band-Aid on a ruptured artery. Triage-- 2022 season="Expectant!"
We have at least seven winnable games in a row coming up, and you want the Blue Jays to throw in the towel? That’s not how the program won a thousand games.

Hopkins will be VERY, VERY fortunate to go 4 and 3 over the next 7 games. 4-4 after Maryland would leave them 7-7 and needing to win the 1st round of the Big 10 tourney to even be NCAA Tourney eligible.
Better for the sport of Lacrosse and Hopkins to concentrate on getting back to relevance. They are in a very precarious position. 3 more non-tourney years will likely start some very troubling conversations for Hopkins internally.
Blue Jays still have a lot of upside. I can see them going 5-2 (or maybe even better) before playing Maryland.
I just can’t figure out what they’re trying to do on offense.
Is it a motion offense? No.
Canadian style offense? No.
Do they focus on playing two-man games? No.
Work hard to get a good short-stick matchup and then dodge? No.
What?
They have no chemistry on offense. None.
And that’s the funny thing about this season. Going in, everyone was worried about goalie play and our defense. Those parts of the team are coming along. Still lots of room for improvement, but coming along.
Offense? It’s a compete mess.
