The wrecked hamstring is no joke fer' sure. Any strength and conditioning coach would know that not wearing something to protect the skin and keep extremities as warm as possible is in the best interest of the athletes body.....not to mention in a sport filled with quick stops and sprints. And sadly, the players have little say in the matter.bearlaxfan wrote: ↑Sat Feb 04, 2023 7:38 am Too lazy to check venue temps, but what's the over/under on frostbite, wrecked hamstrings, cracked (stick) heads?
I feel bad for the non starters that will be standing on the sidelines in shorts for 3 hrs in 25 degree weatherTypical Lax Dad wrote: ↑Fri Feb 03, 2023 2:03 pm The weather will do more upsetting than any other team.

PC lost a lot on back end from LY (GK, LSM, 2 starting D) as well as middie who scored 7 (!) in last year's game. I'll take HC +5.5 all day and the moneyline to boot. HC will be much improved this year.
The ridiculous fact of playing lacrosse in the middle of winter is the result of the monster TV $$$ now calling the shots...Jumbo wrote: ↑Sat Feb 04, 2023 8:50 amI feel bad for the non starters that will be standing on the sidelines in shorts for 3 hrs in 25 degree weatherTypical Lax Dad wrote: ↑Fri Feb 03, 2023 2:03 pm The weather will do more upsetting than any other team.

It started with demanding the playoffs take place on the Memorial Day weekend which pushed the beginning of the season back 2 - 3 weeks. Then the arbitrary manipulation of weekend games from warm Saturday afternoons to Friday and Sunday evenings.
Etc , etc , etc. Very sad.
Hopkins first game was mid-March and the season ended mid-June.
Anyway just the bitchin' of a crabby olde man who knew lacrosse before it was consumed by the Monster of TV...like all sports now.

Rutgers eh? Ha. Clueless
I hope you didn't put money on this prognostication.
Cut them some slack. They were only 12 goals away from an upset.
