Re: NESCAC 2020
Back in the '80s and '90s, Middlebury used to regularly play Dartmouth and often beat them. Midd prevailed in three straight games in '91, '92 and '93 before Dartmouth won in '94. That was the end of the series. No potential reward for Dartmouth (other than a manageable commute) to offset the risk of more losses to a D3 team. It's too bad that more of these local rivalry games aren't scheduled between D1 and D3 teams. Who wouldn't like to see Tufts play Harvard on a Tuesday night in April? Maybe you pull in HC and Bates for a double header at Harvard Stadium. Many of the guys know each other and it would be a fun take for local HS players and fans. I totally agree that the top NESCAC squads don't have a chance against the top 10 D1 schools, but history has shown that the top of the NESCAC is often better than the bottom half of D1. There is precedent for this in the 1A and 1AA football programs scheduling one game per year against each other.
Re: NESCAC 2020
Totally agree. Tufts has scrimmaged Harvard in pre-season several times during their recent glory years and acquitted themselves well (not winning as far as I know but playing competitive matches and what can you really say about winning vs losing a scrimmage anyway). I would love to see local D3v D1 regular season games but it is a tough sell to the D1 team based on how teams are selected for the tourney. There are really only a few that work anyway, Tufts-Harvard works as long as Harvard is struggling and Tufts flying, if either changes it is not close. Midd-Dartmouth works. Not going to see Wes-Yale at this point and in the era of Yale that would be a slaughter but sure for Fairfield, Quinnipiac, Sacred Heart, Hartford. Similarly obviously not seeing Salisbury vs any of the big boys in the state of Maryland but maybe UMBC. York or Calibrini vs Drexel? Amherst could probably not hang with UMass I would not think but wouldn’t be a slaughter. Williams a short ride over to Albany but that would not be competitive.
Re: NESCAC 2020
Middlebury also used to play UVM. Last game was 98 in Burlington, with the Panthers winning in the neighborhood of 19-8. UVM beat either Hofstra or Towson that year (memory is fuzzy), and had close games with both, so it's not like they were awful. The number of D1 teams, and the roster sizes, were much smaller back then so the D1-D3 gap may have been smaller. But now there are so many more high school kids playing with the athleticism & skill to play college ball, perhaps the gap is smaller now. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Re: NESCAC 2020
Not sure if your referring to scrimmages but you know 1994 was the last year interdivisional play was allowed correct? So it wasn’t Dartmouth not wanting to lose to a D3 team, note Hobart was forced to choose and moved up starting in 1995

Re: NESCAC 2020
You sure about that? As I mentioned, Midd played UVM until 98. W&L played VMI as a regular season game through 2004. Wondering if Hobart moved up because the NCAA forced their hand, or because Cornell and Cuse were going to discontinue their series because the Statesmen were DIII?Farfromgeneva wrote: ↑Sat Aug 17, 2019 6:45 am Not sure if your referring to scrimmages but you know 1994 was the last year interdivisional play was allowed correct?

Re: NESCAC 2020
I’m sure. Maybe Hobart transitioned before the rule fully was implemented and if that’s the case it would still stand to reason that other D1 programs would want to also prepare their forward schedules but Cornell and syracuse never has any interest in dropping Bart. In fact it was interesting to see who they dropped like UMass when they moved to the Big East and there was never a question about keeping Hobart on the schedule.
But I know for sure the NCAA forced their hand. Then of course wouldn’t allow us to give scholarships since we didn’t make the decision when Hopkins did in 1980 or 81

Re: NESCAC 2020
The 10-year gap between Hobart's move up and the last D1-D3 regular season game (that I could find using Google for 5 minutes) is enormous, but maybe the Statesmen were being held to a different standard as they'd dominated D3 for a decade.
Re: NESCAC 2020
Hobart's last game in D 3 was the 1994 NC loss to Salisbury.
It would be great to see the rules tweaked to allow Hobart one or two D 3 games per season and maybe also the Ivys which don't give athletic scholarships. Hobart/Tufts or Amherst/Harvard would generate real fan interest which is lacking in college lax.
Down south Navy/Salisbury would generate some interest. And I'll bet Coach Caravana at Denison could book an interesting D 1 opponent.

OWU played D1 Ohio State, Michigan State and Butler through the 1996 season....
Re: NESCAC 2020
I think it would be fantastic to see some DI /DIII matchups. Would help grow the game. Particularly since top level DIII and mid-level DI players and teams very close in talent these days. Yale, UPenn and Cornell obviously could beat the NESCAC teams, but I think Amherst/Tufts/Wesleyan/Williams would be great and potentially surprising games vs current Brown/Dartmouth/Princeton/Harvard. Similarly, Salisbury vs Navy/UMBC would be interesting.

Re: NESCAC 2020
I agree that it would be fun to watch some of these matchups but and its a BIG BUT, why would a DI team schedule a game against a DIII team? What do they have to gain? Answer, nothing, way much more to lose. That being said, I would love to see the matchups.

Re: NESCAC 2020
I played DII lax in college along time ago. I remember playing the likes of Yale, Villanova, Army, Siena, Binghamton, Notre Dame, St Johns, Michigan, Hofstra, Hobart ( DIII at the time but excellent), Harvard, UMASS, UPENN to name a lot... AND we did beat a lot of them as well. the good old days.
Re: NESCAC 2020
The landscape is so vastly different now that history is completely irrelevant.
In fact with all due respect, this discussion is silly. It's the kind of chatter that disgruntled dad's have when they think their kid was short changed in the recruiting process. The reality is top 20 D3 lacrosse is awesome and doesn’t need validation by any discussion of how they’d stack up against D1.
The problem is, for the vast majority of young players (and parents), it's D1 or bust. The travel programs feed this mania for the money! That mindset is so wrong on MANY levels. IMHO if your good enough to get a look from a top D1 program but aren't good enough to get the offer, you're infinitely better off going top D3 then settling for middling D1. You'll play, you'll get more money, play in more meaningful games and have a great college experience.... Lax as well as a semester abroad and have a social life to boot. Not to mention, when all is said and done you'll have, in all likelyhood a better degree that will allow you to accomplish even bigger goals after college!

Re: NESCAC 2020
Speaking of recruiting, does anyone have any info on NESCAC commits for the 2020 class? A very complete list of 2019 NESCAC commits was posted on this forum last year at about this time. Not many are listed on the Inside Lacrosse website. Wondering if NESCAC commitments are any slower as some of the D1's were/are slower because of the recruiting rule change?

Re: NESCAC 2020
Oh my, Nosey. Not sure why we need to take swipes at dads and club coaches to make a point on which I’m confident we all agree: DIII lacrosse is an excellent experience for thousands of athletes. Is there anyone out there who would prefer to have their son play for DI St. Bonaventure or Cleveland State over DIII Williams or Wesleyan? There are 73 DI men’s programs and 248 DIII men’s programs. I will bet you a cold beer that only a very small percentage of those athletes, their dads and their club coaches are disappointed with the DIII outcome. Besides, without disgruntled dads and pushy club coaches, would we even have a FanLax forum?!?!Nosey Ned wrote: ↑Thu Aug 22, 2019 6:16 pm The landscape is so vastly different now that history is completely irrelevant.

Re: NESCAC 2020
Here's what I've got from spending 45ish minutes on Twitter. Info for some teams was obviously easier to find than for others. As fan of the ISL - and to a lesser degree NE West 1 and MA publics - Amherst, Bowdoin, Middlebury, and Tufts got some very strong players.Oliver156 wrote: ↑Fri Aug 23, 2019 1:44 pm Speaking of recruiting, does anyone have any info on NESCAC commits for the 2020 class?

Re: NESCAC 2020
Agreed - very helpful list. The fogo committed to Amherst is on Inside Lacrosse's top 100 list (must have had lots of D1 options). A few of the Jersey boys (Princeton Day, Glen Ridge, Montgomery) are very strong -- a couple on the NJ.com top 50 player list for Jersey, state/conference honors, attended Maverick Showtime, etc. One of the Wesleyan kids was committed as a freshman to Cornell (whatever that means).

Re: NESCAC 2020
Haha .... love the dads and club coaches! Was probably little too critical and may have over shadowed my point. Which is, I don’t think players (and coaches and dads guiding them) go in to the recruiting process with the excitement for top end D3 that they should. Players seem to come to it and “settle” for D3 at the back end of the process when the D1 dreams are fading. Top end D3 should be more of a goal at the beginning ... not a consolation prize.Can Opener wrote: ↑Sat Aug 24, 2019 7:32 amOh my, Nosey. Not sure why we need to take swipes at dads and club coaches to make a point on which I’m confident we all agree: DIII lacrosse is an excellent experience for thousands of athletes. Is there anyone out there who would prefer to have their son play for DI St. Bonaventure or Cleveland State over DIII Williams or Wesleyan? There are 73 DI men’s programs and 248 DIII men’s programs. I will bet you a cold beer that only a very small percentage of those athletes, their dads and their club coaches are disappointed with the DIII outcome. Besides, without disgruntled dads and pushy club coaches, would we even have a FanLax forum?!?!Nosey Ned wrote: ↑Thu Aug 22, 2019 6:16 pm The landscape is so vastly different now that history is completely irrelevant.
In fact with all due respect, this discussion is silly. It's the kind of chatter that disgruntled dad's have when they think their kid was short changed in the recruiting process. The reality is top 20 D3 lacrosse is awesome and doesn’t need validation by any discussion of how they’d stack up against D1.
The problem is, for the vast majority of young players (and parents), it's D1 or bust. The travel programs feed this mania for the money! That mindset is so wrong on MANY levels. IMHO if your good enough to get a look from a top D1 program but aren't good enough to get the offer, you're infinitely better off going top D3 then settling for middling D1. You'll play, you'll get more money, play in more meaningful games and have a great college experience.... Lax as well as a semester abroad and have a social life to boot. Not to mention, when all is said and done you'll have, in all likelyhood a better degree that will allow you to accomplish even bigger goals after college!
Now as I was called out on behalf of dads and club coaches ... be prepared to hear some blow back from St Bonnie and Clev. St fans! It’s all good
