You took my two guys.ohmilax34 wrote: ↑Wed Oct 26, 2022 9:10 am This was tough because there are a lot of players I'm considering, and I started weighing the IL Power 100 rankings and reports from fall, and that made it more complicated, plus the guys I kind of grew fond of while watching them play this spring and summer haven't made a big splash this fall in the reports I've read.
Dropping:
Aidan Olmstead Loyola A
Bobby Abshire Army M
Adding
1st Round: Chad Palumbo Princeton FR A
2nd Round: Matt Minicus Loyola FR A
Still a lot of good players left.
McConvey was my pick if Campbell wasn't still available, luckily he wasfcalax wrote: ↑Thu Oct 27, 2022 1:14 am You guys make this too easy!! A couple of draft thoughts so far and as you read please try and do so in your best "STEPHEN A" voice!!
1. HOLY LORDED.......THIS YEAR IS LOADED!! This year is absolutely loaded with offensive talent. It helps when we add three new teams (Harvard, Villanova, Brown), throw in a ton of COVID 5th year transfers, and a pretty talented freshman class. Lots of impact picks!!
2. ALL-AMERICAN'S.....Still amazes me how every draft, previous All-American's (Devon McLane, Matt Campbell, and my #2 pick) and future All-American's (Sam King, Chris Lyons) get passed up each year for gambles on unproven freshman. Sure some will pan out, but many do not! We're talking about All-Americans....the best of the best!
3. HORRIFIC!!!.......Worst Picks of the first round: Aidan Aitken (FR - UMD) and Dom Pietramala (FR - UNC)....remember meeting Aidan as a 6th grader. Unfortunately it will take him a while to ever even get a chance to sniff the field at Maryland (reoccurring problem for many!). He will be out transferring back to his home state at Jacksonville in 2 years or less. CalLaxDad.....you got a good returning group of players....extra picks coming.......you could have won now!! But not by wasting a pick on Petro Jr. who will probably transfer to Cuse eventually anyways. Petro Jr. might be a stud down the road....but you could have won now!!
4. THE LOCKS!!........Best Picks - Chris Lyons (48 pts as a FR), Sam King (46 pts as FR), and Devon Mclane (71 pts as a SOPH)..........STUDS!!! I was hoping to make Dante Trader be a part of this list, but I guess will have to wait till later rounds when he is dropped
5. DON'T SLEEP..............Defenses..........no one values them......17 finished with less than negative 10 points
Excited for a great season fellas! Always so much fun and always much love to you all.....especially PA TALK. MATNUM....thanks for all your time and efforts in coordinating and running everything. You the man!!! Time to take a nap for a week and come back for the 3rd round. Excited to see what studs you leave me for rounds 3 and 4!!
FCA selects: Thomas McConvey - GR - MIDFIELD (UVA)
FCA drops: Dylan McIntosh SR A Hofstra
CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va. – Virginia men’s lacrosse head coach Lars Tiffany announced the addition of graduate transfer Thomas McConvey on Thursday (June 30).
Only part of this post I understood was that I was the man. People, please ignore FCA. He's just excited because he grabbed a D with his 1st Round pick (mistake) and then was surprised that his mistake didn't destroy his season (like so many other picks have done to you all). Also, FWIW, rumor has it that McConvey is experiencing some academic issues which is going to cause some problems for him this coming spring which caused Lars to confront him which caused McConvey to fly off the handle and... It's an ugly, ugly situation in Charlottesville. Ignore, FCA.fcalax wrote: ↑Thu Oct 27, 2022 1:14 am You guys make this too easy!!

Graduating our top attack Nichtern and top mid Hannah puts our team in rebuilding mode. We're never left without and the rebuild is already underway with the abundance of talent available.
FCA scuttling my second-and-third pick plan. After two years, I'd come to see Georgetown D as mine, all mine.
You took my next guy. Last three picks took my next three. My roster was decimated. I am in a 2 year rebuild.fcalax wrote: ↑Thu Oct 27, 2022 1:14 am You guys make this too easy!! A couple of draft thoughts so far and as you read please try and do so in your best "STEPHEN A" voice!!

That is a great quote. Might be a good team slogan. Too funny.Typical Lax Dad wrote: ↑Thu Oct 27, 2022 3:05 pm You took my next guy. Last three picks took my next three. My roster was decimated. I am in a 2 year rebuild.
compensatory picks take place at the end of their assigned round
