Faceoffs are 4-1 in Loyola's favor.

You must be new. Rankings are based on wins and losses, not faceoffs and turnovers.

They crushed Maryland, and their Hopkins win is starting to look better than anybody expected.
And I hope their Hopkins win keeps looking better and better.

Offense is really tough to watch this game. 1 quarter left down 4 goals

[youthathletics]

Helluva 3 goal run by Loyola, started w/Pontra and the (and 2) 2min locked in on 8 Navy. Went from 8-4 to 8-7 in under 3 minutes.

[youthathletics]

I guess Loyola had 1st AP on the inadvertent whistle?

[GreyingHound]

23 saves. Wow.

+1 Defense has kept them in this game Staudt is playing well

No help from offense big time players show and play in big time games

We take shots, but are they good shots

Agree with offense statement. James disappeared again.
Disagree about defense. Almost every goal Navy got was when their guys (Tolker and Hewitt) got behind our defense and were 1 on 1 with Staudt. One of their goals came from any distance. Defense was caught ball watching all game long.

James, Kamish, Heuston, Murphy, Higgins and Poitras go 3/37 shooting. Yes Ryan played great. The gals that beat him, however, were mostly high shots. They kept shooting low and he was great on the low stuff. Just don’t understand what has happened to this offense since Hopkins. Just can’t fathom what’s going on with James. One goal and two points in five games. He was their best player early this season and last year. Really thought he was going to be a big producer this year. Wonder if he’ll come back for his grad year.

These players have not gotten better they have regressed James does better when the offense runs thru someone else

Poor shot selection Turn overs poor passing Watching Duke And ND play Both offenses are crisp and efficient

Mustang Sally skipped one across 2 guys in the 4th Q. I'll refrain from commenting on my thoughts when it happened.

I didn't see too much poor shot selection, as much as I saw "poor shooting." There were at least 4-5 times where we had shots from good spots on the field, made the defense and goalie move, but we just didn't finish the shots. Without watching them again, not sure to whether to really chalk those up to good goaltending on Navy's part, poor shooting on our part, good/bad luck, or a combination of all factors.

I stand corrected and agree with poor shooting... And I agree with Sally's skip, we are on the same page with that decision.

Huge game this weekend v BU. If Hounds are to win they need:
1. Evan James to be the player he was last year and the first few games this season
2. Kamish and rest of middies to score on more than 3/37 shots. Need good shots but need these guys to finish.
3. Minicus needs to play and play like he has all season
4. Defenders need to stop ball watching. Navy scored a ton of goals when they got behind defense for tap in goals.
5. Would love to see Hounds play zone. Staudt gives up very few goals from distance.
6. Limit turnovers

Prediction is BU 12-9. Hounds have been terrible on the road this year and given the past few weeks I just don’t see it changing.

[GreyingHound]

Geez, what a pair of utter morons calling this game.

[houndace1]

I get that BU is very talented at attack but a 5-1 first quarter lead is hard to watch

[houndace1]

6-2 1st quarter lead for BU. Getting killed on FO and just a lot of turnovers
