Maybe let's cut Doc a little slack for this game. He fully realizes it may be his daughter's last lax game ever after how many years? 15, 18? It's really, really tough to see it come to an end. I can understand being on edge.
I will go back to the Girl's Lacrosse Northern Virginia Public school forum and talk about concessions at Woodson High school.

I'm the youngest of three girls and when we went to buy a puppy- back lab- we picked out a boy. Came home with a girl. My Dad said "I can't win"

To my daughter:
From the day you picked up a stick in Oregon (lax hot bed !), I knew you would go far. You didn’t, that’s OK, but I saw it. When we moved to the DC area and you found your way into a club, it was eye opening to both of us. Welcome to big girl lacrosse! Years of practice and tournaments, camps and visits. It all came naturally to you. You didn’t know…You were a public school girl in an area where privates dominate. Oh well, let’s go to high school. 3 out of 4 years with State championships, multiple year unbeaten streak and you were on top of the local lax scene. School Girls/National Tournament and Under Armour, every year a new height. Recruiting calls, recruiting trips, so much time and miles spent finding a fit. I still remember that call we got 15 minutes after leaving Max Exposure from your future coach. Prospect days, offers, commitment(s ) and a final choice. You went to a big program and stepped on the field unsure…only to start every game. You are a clutch player, who rises to big games. You are a competitor, a mudder who leaves it all on the field. The ups and downs of D1 athletics, the rigor of a Biology major, nothing ever appeared to be out of your hands or reach. I am proud of you as an athlete. You have done far more than I ever could imagine. I don’t know how your last (this) year will end, but know that you have made a mark on your teammates, your coaches, your siblings, your parents.
You are the best person I know.Win or lose on Thursday, we have your back. We look forward to the next impossible dream you pursue. I know you will take it on, and just like lacrosse or academics, you will succeed.
OK enough sappy dad stuff....proceed with silly gifs, youtube snips and other LP BUS stuff.
Wonderful, thank you for sharing with us hooligans.

See, THIS is exactly what I scream about...though I don't think you meant it like this.
So only the young women at the "D1 level" sacrifice so much and play so hard? That is an absolute BS take and shows you know nothing about Women's Lacrosse. D2 and D3...I guess it means nothing to them as they don't sacrifice anything like the D1 girls.
By the way, Dr. Tact has a daughter at the D3 level. Not important right?
Lacrosse elitism and snobbery at its finest.
I think this needs to be said more and if you see it as me jumping down someone's throat, then that's not my intent. If I go to the Women's D3 Forum am I going to see any comments by Can Opener? I'm not trying to be mean to anyone, but I get annoyed when a comment is made that seems to say that only one division or one group of players are important. They ALL sacrifice. They ALL play hard...and they ALL matter.Can Opener wrote: ↑Wed May 18, 2022 10:13 amNo need to jump down someone’s throat here.
