Re: Transfer portal
Ncaa treats it like a redshirt year but they also usually look at it poorly if you need a medical redshirt. Football players sometime have issues getting a redshirt if they voluntarily took one.

Chepnik is nightmare - her dad is the ring leader. (Just reread the bottom of the article if you think otherwise).
2024 is a "Bonus Year" where the athletes are on campus but not competing at D1 level so it doesn't count against their eligibility. Many new programs have this "Bonus Year".

I’m fairness, she never went to Oregon - just committed.

Re: Transfer portal
USA Lacrosse put out their training list for the U20 team and it has LoPinto listed as a BC player. Guess it's finally out there.

Re: Transfer portal
the term ring chasing is a bit over used. She was unhappy at Florida for reasons only she knows, and sought another program that gave her a better chance at winning a ring than Florida did. That's not ring chasing, as there were multiple programs that gave her a better shot at winning than Florida did. She felt BC gave her that along with other factors about the school itself that matched what she was looking for. Being a star player and going to an already super stacked team who are heavy favorites in your final year of eligibility has a better claim of ring chasing than LoPinto's move.LarryGamLax wrote: ↑Sun Jul 09, 2023 9:56 pm
Is LoPinto RING CHASING? If you don't think so(or know so), tell me why?

Re: Transfer portal
Your post makes it seem like ball will be the most impactful transfer because she was “first team AA”. Who cares. Maryland got two defenders as good as ball last season and they were not difference makers.Essexfenwick wrote: ↑Mon Jul 10, 2023 8:14 am Has anybody except UMD transferred in a 1st team all American?

On the other hand, aurora cordingly was “just” a third team iwcla as her last year at hop….and then proceeded to be the best player on the Maryland team she joined by far…
Maryland need a lot of things. Ball is a nice addition, but that’s it…. Said differently, if you could have either lopinto or ball at Maryland, would you really choose ball????!

Re: Transfer portal
Ball is one of the most dominant defenders I have ever seen. She has elite size, speed, and skills.

Re: Transfer portal
No knowledge whatsoever of this specific situation but AWW has a recent example of taking a player with elite skills from a "bad match" program and providing the environment for them to win a natty and the Tewaaraton. Pretty potent weapon in the recruiting arsenal.Kleizaster wrote: ↑Sun Jul 09, 2023 10:16 pmthe term ring chasing is a bit over used.

Re: Transfer portal
Don't want to speak for Womenslaxxfan, but think the point was that MD is losing 3 starters on defense. 2 of which, Bosco and Donovan, are all-americans. Yes, Ball is great, but she's basically just partially replacing what they lost on defense. Defense wasn't the issue with MD last year. and LoPinto would have given them something they didn't have. Not to mention the fact that Essex is just an annoying poster, and that's coming from a fan of MD lacrosse.Dasher wrote: ↑Mon Jul 10, 2023 12:02 pmBall is one of the most dominant defenders I have ever seen.

Re: Transfer portal
Donovan is a former AA from her time at Princeton, not this year. And I do think defense was an issue for the Terps this season. Ball is exceptional, but she can't do it all herself. Major showed flashes of potential, but the unit has a long way to go developmentally, IMHO.hmmm wrote: ↑Mon Jul 10, 2023 12:10 pmDon't want to speak for Womenslaxxfan, but think the point was that MD is losing 3 starters on defense. 2 of which, Bosco and Donovan, are all-americans.

Re: Transfer portal
I wondered all last season was Marge Donovan did not shine with the Terps. Bosco excelled as a Terp and in their system, but Donovan did not.

My point is twofold: (1) that a defensive transfer is far less likely than a comparable offensive one to have a trajectory altering impact on a team. (2). Essex implication that md getting a first team aa transfer vs a third or second team was nonsense.

I thought 1st team AA is more prestigious than lower teams. But I was just asking if any other teams have transferred in a first teamer other than UMD because I haven’t been keeping up with it.
Re: Transfer portal
Well, you've been keeping up with a bit since you had to look through all 3 AA lists to find the one that had Ball on the first team considering the other 2 did not.Essexfenwick wrote: ↑Mon Jul 10, 2023 2:24 pmWomenslaxxfan wrote: ↑Mon Jul 10, 2023 2:11 pmhmmm wrote: ↑Mon Jul 10, 2023 12:10 pmDon't want to speak for Womenslaxxfan, but think the point was that MD is losing 3 starters on defense. 2 of which, Bosco and Donovan, are all-americans.

So no.
No other team except UMD has brought in a first team AA transfer.
