[NutmegCrunch]

The commentator for Syracuse - Virginia Tech spent most of the first quarter referring to the draw circle as "center X", which drove me slightly crazy.

Clemson has a beautiful facility; the camera positioning seemed like it was to show off the building more than the actual game.

UConn and Yale was solid for the first quarter, and then things started falling apart for UConn. Not sure what their issue is this year.

Speaking of teams that are having a downturn so far this season, Army lost to Stanford pretty badly.

Wow! This is going to be a bare-bones telecast it looks like starting out. No sound, no announcers, no on screen scoreboard, no nothing except cheap seats wide angle video stream. But – better than nothing. Stony Brook draws first blood.

2-0 Stony Brook 11:05 left in 1st

With technology on this day and age this is ridiculous and unacceptable. Talk about growing the sport - wow

Exactly what I was thinking--Grow The Game! Yeah, right. tick poor planning for this. Two top 15 teams. Tsk tsk.

+ 1000. What a low rent event. Not sure how they get teams to participate.

The falling , flopping from Masera jee

I hope you daughter doesn’t play college lax. Realitychecks/lax guy is gonna have JS cancel your daughter for that. Lmao

lol facts is facts
My girls played and are now happily in workforce .

That is awesome to hear.

[MolonLaxe]

The Hopkins vs SB game is more proof some AD's just don't care. That was the most embarrassing broadcast I've seen in ages. HUDL cameras are better, even when there are birds flying in and out the entire time.

She must have heard you... She didn't tag anyone though.

Good im glad. That was embarrassing

So when you laud Masera as a Tewey top 5 with her performance against Cuse...what happens in. a game like this one shooting 2/14 with 2 TO?
Maybe just a bad game. But shouldn't just discount it.

I still think Kailyn Hart is more impressive--just like I said during the Cuse game.

What stadium was the SBU Hopkins game played at?

[OuttaNowhereWregget]

Gutsy, gutsy win by Hop. They looked for certain sure like they were on their way to another el foldo. Jays led 13-5 with under 4 minutes left in the 3rd when Stony Brook went on a 7 goal tear to pull within 1. (Poor hmmm must have chewed his fingernails right down to the cuticles.) I thought it was smart of McCormack to call 2 timeouts in the 4th quarter. Hop calmed down. Doucette made a key save on FP at 6:06. (Sorry, DMac). Caused turnover machine Reagan O'Brien (3CT's 3GB's) (Beantown girl, doncha know) CTO'd Verhulst, scooped the ground ball--successful clear and a prolonged possession which ended in a FP goal at 1:58 (Smile, DMac). Ahh, breathing room. Draw control win JHU with just under 2:00 left. Chewed much time until the shot clock violation left Stony Brook with a mere 15 seconds to score two goals. Game.

This should help their confidence a lot. Big 10 play this year should be compelling.

[LaxDadMax]

So after these upsets, what is the new top 10?

Here is mine

1. NU
2. Boston College
3. JMU
4. Michigan
5. UVA
6. UNC
7. Loyola
8. Maryland
9. ND
10. Hopkins


Not sure there is much difference between 3 and 10. Probably a big high on UVA, but recency bias, and I was really impressed by their road win.

A stadium in Charlotte NC. The men's D2 stream Wingate/Tampa was horrible. No sound etc. For a "premier event" it was poorly done.

Fair point. for some reason, I though that was next week.

Crazy the ESPN+ Broadcast for the Hopkin's Men is amazing. Announcers and everything. What a disgrace.

Maybe just a bad game. But shouldn't just discount it.

To your point, it can't be ignored, but it is about a body of work and not one game right? Scane last year had 1 goal on 10 shots - in an NCAA playoff game. Statistically that was a bad (worse) day too.

I am not saying crown Masera, but comparing her to Scane this year, doesn't she deserve to be in a conversation even after her worst game of year so far where she did still have 5 points and 7 DC? Stats as of now

Scane - 7 games, 26 goals, 31 points, shot % .413 and 8 DC
Masera - 6 games 30 goals, 44 points, shot % .405 and 56 DC

Long season to play out and definitely she is a long shot - but I like her fire (and if memory serves she is a true 4 year player vs 6 year player which adds bonus points for me). I know the Northwestern swarm will react - but Masera performance to date at least keeps her relevant to the conversation on 3/9 I believe.

No. Because Masera puts up those numbers playing in. a weak conference with few out of conference heavy hitters.
Scane plays in a tougher conference playing tougher OOC teams

In the middle of the road teams post of the day.

Stock
Coastal - so much for them.
UConn - what the hell happened
Davidson - so much for their come up
Jacksonville - maybe Mindy was the reason for their success
Binghamton - huge step back

Stock
Delaware - I believe this team will be next years suprise team. I would say they upset SB next year. Looks like they have a good coaching staff there getting the most out of that team.
PSU big win. Let’s see if they can add off this. Easier one against Lehigh Tuesday so they should get a streak going.
UMass Lowell - no one would’ve guessed this even with the weak schedule
Cornell - after the clinker against LeMoyne they seem to have right the ship

Not saying Davidson is great, but what's wrong with a 9 goal win over Lasalle? still think they finish 3rd in A10.

Someone read the IL scoreboard on Davidson result. They had it wrong.
