Hall flopped more than Neymar at that World Cup. Solid player... when she doesn't hit the deck. Thought NW was school with better drama program but what do I know?

Watching this game now because I couldn't yesterday. I have always been irked by the play of #19 on UF, but she should have been carded yesterday for the drama. The rule is on the books for a reason.
Yeah, it's ridiculous to me that anyone would complain about Madison Taylor flopping given what Maggi Hall was up to out there.
I find Hall unwatchable, her flopping (and her exaggerated faces) take the skill out of the sport. Lacrosse is becoming the new soccer.
I saw Florida at Maryland this year in person and watched several of their games on TV. I have to be honest, I did not notice Hall flopping in these games, but it was hard to miss in the semi. However, the refs were letting both teams play. My daughter (who played both of these programs in her collegiate career) texted me: "the refs need to rein it in, these programs will legit hurt each other." Maybe this was an intentional strategy by Hall to try and take advantage of NW's physicality? I think she risked getting carded for flopping several times and several times was pretty reckless and OOC, throwing her body around in what looked like an attempt to force contact/a whistle.
