Nothing wrong with him being fired up at all. I actually liked the locker room celebration. Good for those kids. As I said early, it was a fun entertaining game. I have no dog in this fight. It was a see saw game back and forth. He’s a great coach, now doubt. Just slimy.Womenslaxxfan wrote: ↑Wed Mar 06, 2024 6:59 am Although the officiating unfortunately took center stage, this was an important game for stony Brook and a result that nobody in this forum predicted I think. It’s a win over a team that will almost certainly be a top 10 team at the end of the season. This didn’t look like a fluke…. Stony Brook looked like they belonged with cuse in every way.
If spallina didn’t get fired up about this win, something would be wrong with him.
Who on this forum thinks unc for example is playing better lacrosse this season than stony Brook?

Yes it wasn’t hate. I found the video funny.watcherinthewoods wrote: ↑Wed Mar 06, 2024 7:20 amI am not sure this is "hate" ... pretty funny actually. Way more things said about Spallina here that I would classify as HATE.

Lmao! And don’t forget, Yellow Jackets B are sometimes Yellow Jackets A and B. Especially at LiveLoveLax and Summer Genesis.spidey44 wrote: ↑Wed Mar 06, 2024 8:01 amAnd LiveLoveLax where they'll drop out on the Friday of the tournament...

Green cards have ruined women's lacrosse for me. I realize that they're a result of too much cross checking, and too hard, on clears (not restricted to) but they've gone too far with petty calls that are unnecessary and have no effect on the game/play. It has slowed this game down and made it frustrating to watch (like back in days of yore when it was a game of whistles and constant stoppage). The pendulum swings and it has swung too far with these green cards. For the grow the game crowd, the one's who want to cater to the casual fan, I'd suggest you find a better way to control the game as it's heading back in the direction of being painful watch. Those who saw some fall ball and commented that they've slowed the game down were 100 right.
This officiating crew last night was god awful.....absolutely god awful!!!!!
Oh, and when you don't convert on FPSs from a good hash and lose by one, that's on you.
Jus' sayin'.

1 million times this. And it was so obvious this is what would happen. Much rather institute a cumulative penalty - something like 3 cards on any player being a red card, or something similar. You just can’t slow the hand down and put a team down a player for some of these garbage calls (not referring to this game).

Richmond v. UVA, today at 5:00 eastern (according to the ESPN site), in Charlottesville. I like Virginia by a couple, close game, etc.
Now does someone who knows something about Richmond want to chime in?

What's kind of amazing here is many of the SB goals were just cuts and feeds. The funniest part of this is, it's a drill Joe runs all the time called three spot. It was kind of shocking to see the lack of awareness (or laziness) on covering the cutters allowing the openings.2004wrongisland wrote: ↑Tue Mar 05, 2024 9:35 pm Masera is clearly a likely Tewaarton finalist after tonight. 4 goals including the game winner in OT, 9 draw controls, two falling down highlight reel goals. She’s a special player and showed it tonight.
Also, let's pump the brakes on Masera. Kailyn Hart was way more impressive IMO.
Hats off to Joe and SB for the win, but it doesn't mean I have to like the guy.

Richmond just got spanked by Navy. I think Virginia wins by more than a couple. I also think Navy is better than their ranking.Seacoaster(1) wrote: ↑Wed Mar 06, 2024 9:17 am Richmond v.

I think the green card rule was an overreaction to a big problem of girl just hacking at players in transition. I would have no issue with green cards if they eliminated the calls on 50/50 plays and just called them when a player is trying to slow down a transition opportunity.DMac wrote: ↑Wed Mar 06, 2024 8:42 amGreen cards have ruined women's lacrosse for me.

I do think the rules changes around shooting space and calling charging more are steps in the right direction.

Not sure how Cuse rights the ship feel like she (Trainor) perpetuates the undisciplined lax that Gait had

Stonybrook beating CUSE wasn't a surprise..SB is a strong well coached team and they do this every year. Just goes to show how small the gap is between all these teams. Why not StonyBrook? if there was ever a year for them to have a shot to win it all..it would be this year.
You can't say they arent contenders because no else really is. They qualify by default
