Denver stops the Michigan 5-goal run with what?
A hard, aggressive dodge against a longpole.
There are complex elements to lacrosse, but it ain’t rocket science.
Excellent game.

And a hard Denver dodge down the alley opens up the middle (after a slide is drawn) for an excellent pass and easy Denver goal.
It really isn’t f*cking complicated.

Some big saves by the Denver goalie in the 3rd.

Huge save at the end of the third.

I will eat crow if I am wrong. But that fast-breaker for Denver for a 14-8 lead could be the beginning of the end for Michigan.

I’d say going into halftime 11-3 was probably the beginning of the end..gymman1031 wrote: ↑Sat May 11, 2024 6:50 pm I will eat crow if I am wrong. But that fast-breaker for Denver for a 14-8 lead could be the beginning of the end for Michigan.

15-10. Denver played not to lose on that last possession.

Game is not close to over.

Michigan just came out too flat in the first half.

Tierney would’ve murdered a kid for throwing a ball over the top with a second left on the shot clock and gifting Michigan transition on a silver platter like that. Unspeakably dumb

It was aggressive. Not the most prudent pass, but no way prudence wins the national championship this year.
Tierney’s era is over. This game proves it.

Re: #5 Denver vs Michigan Saturday @ 5
It was dumb. Gifting other teams fast break goals has never won a national championship. Spotting teams 8 goals in the 1st half doesn’t win tournament games either.DocBarrister wrote: ↑Sat May 11, 2024 7:04 pmIt was aggressive.

Running into triple teams and dodging against Pederson are supposedly dumb things to do, but that’s how Denver won this game.BigTurn wrote: ↑Sat May 11, 2024 7:10 pmIt was dumb.

I was surprised by how aggressively Denver played. Absolutely loved it.
Hope the Blue Jays were watching.

Re: #5 Denver vs Michigan Saturday @ 5
Great game by Denver. Michigan picked a hell of a time to come out flat. Early season issues came back poor defense (should I stay or should I go slides), poor goalie play, and a like of midfield dodging. Seemed like only Weifeldt and Cohen came out to play
Re: #5 Denver vs Michigan Saturday @ 5
Wonder how Breschi feels watching that after scapegoating the most accomplished OC of all time to save his own hide. Great game pios.
