Sorry but I have watched and enjoyed womens lacrosse for many years , I get no one cares but I think this may be the final season. The Florida game today was gross at best. How many times do they need to flop or pretend they have been injured to recover immediately . The coach , players and parents are an embarrassment .

Just meant last season I will watch, it’s also why I said I get no one cares . It gotten so unwatchable ,that Florida game should be watched by all the refs .The game is essentially over and you have a Florida flopping on what I believe was her 5 goal to the point the announcers were commenting on it . That coach is a disgrace.

Am I making this up, but didn't they make "flopping" a point of emphasis for the officials this year? If so, pretty sure I did not see it called once. Flopping and the constant grabbing of the head (when stick is below shoulder level for goodness sake...) drives me nuts too. Of course maybe I just want them to make it a point of emphasis lol...

They 100% did. Been asking all season why it's not being called. They put in a rule for a green card for simulation or embellishment. I have not seen one handed out all season. The refs are refusing to enforce the new rule. It's the only way to stop all the flopping and they refuse to do their jobs.

This biggest joke is embellishment is in the rule book because frankly it is just not called. Take it out if you aren’t going to call it.

They did. Last thing we need is another sport like soccer. The best actors in all of sports.

Anyone have any video examples of the flopping that you are all talking about? Would love to see if it really is flopping or not.

Penn are up 8-5 going into the final quarter against Yale.

Probably the most impactful game of the day in terms of the committee decisions tonight around seeding and hosting.

After watching this game, it’s clear neither one of these teams belong in the top 8.

Fairfield goes down to Niagara. Seemed as though they were a lock for the AQ.

Just don’t think either one of them is a top 8 team in the country. I watch a lot of lacrosse games across all conferences and in my opinion, both would be lucky to finish 5th in the Big10 or ACC. They both are definitely tournament teams but neither should be seeded. Just an opinion.

Edited for the .500 part of it. That was a bit harsh.

Yeah, hard to disagree with that assessment. I just think that both are good teams. My guess is both would beat Clemson, Duke, Pitt, VTech; not sure what they do against UNC this year. Penn did beat Maryland.

And the committee’s job begins.

So with Richmond and Niagara pulling off the upsets, will that knock some bubble teams out? Do Fairfield and Umass get at large bids?
