Do they call crosschecks, ever?

Not too smart. Guess they’ve lowered the standards at Penn.

Penn played lousy for any number of stretches,

Rutgers kept their wits about them,

game over.

Yup.

Experience played a big part. Penn had Rutgers on the ropes and then pressed and took some poor shots and Rutgers just made no almost no mistakes in the 4th Quarter. Lot of guys who had played in that game last year and knew what to do; most of Penn's players from that 2019 team are no longer there. Just wilted a bit in the heat and played rash, Rutgers kept their composure.

Good thing the waived Penn goal (horrible rule) didn't matter in this game. Thought it might until later in game.

Let's hope it doesn't matter going into FF.

Gotta give Rall, along with the D a ton of credit. Penn has some very nice pieces but Handley is the x factor. In the games I have watched, they go how he goes. 0-3. Not a bad day by any means but he was held more than in check. That's incredible work. I'm not sure if he's seen an LSM Rall.

Terps and Rutgers are teams with older players

All of the goalies today played really well. 20, 18, 17, and 14 saves, on 59%, 66%, 63% and 56% respectively.

Only hard ones to the head. It's the price we pay to have offset heads and deep pockets ...

Agreed

To go from Hofstra to this field is rough. Never again.

Maybe it’s a small thing, but playing a quarterfinal game in a virtually empty 80,000 seat stadium is a bad look for NCAA Division 1 lacrosse.

Really bad.

It sounds like a mausoleum and the visuals are terrible.

What where they thinking?

They were thinking that OSU applied to do it. Not many schools want the headache/risk ...

Unless I missed one, no penalties 1st half...interesting.

Having a couple thousand people in a 100k seat stadium for the second biggest weekend of games of the season is not growing the game it is desecrating it.
