Kean should win by 3/4, if everybody is healthy. A lot of the kids had a stomach bug last Saturday.

My point is Stockton lost at home to Kean, the 6th seed last year. I doubt MSU wins, but you never know.Asgot wrote: ↑Tue Apr 23, 2024 2:25 pmDifferent opponent, if it was Kean and Stockton I may agree with you but Kean gets to host UMWlaxdad1434 wrote: ↑Tue Apr 23, 2024 1:55 pmThey got the 3 seed last year and lost.

Re: CLC 2024
While I’m on this thread I’d like to ask a serious question… no disrespect meant - but what’s happened to the MSU program? I knew them as a group of tough nosed Jersey kids who would play you hard for 60 minutes. From a far they seem to be down the last couple years. Anyone agree with that assessment or am I mistaken?laxdad1434 wrote: ↑Tue Apr 23, 2024 2:42 pmMy point is Stockton lost at home to Kean, the 6th seed last year.

Hopefully that goalie’s tummy is ok, 21 saves on Saturday! He has to be the best player on that team.laxdad1434 wrote: ↑Tue Apr 23, 2024 1:55 pmThey got the 3 seed last year and lost. Just sayin.

They still play a tough brand of lacrosse, but I think they are losing players, local NJ kids, to other schools.Nosey Ned wrote: ↑Tue Apr 23, 2024 3:51 pmWhile I’m on this thread I’d like to ask a serious question… no disrespect meant - but what’s happened to the MSU program?

Re: CLC 2024
I'm leaning towards Stockton and UMW as well. UMW will have to bring their A game, but I think they have it in them to win and keep the team together for one more game.laxdad1434 wrote: ↑Tue Apr 23, 2024 2:42 pmMy point is Stockton lost at home to Kean, the 6th seed last year.

Re: CLC 2024
Nice W’s by Kean and Stockton. Kean wire to wire! Stockton was down 6-0 and win 12-10

Re: CLC 2024
Just for the sake of creating conversation while we still have college lacrosse to talk about...what would it take for Kean or Stockton to pull off the upset of the decade this week? Crazy things have happened before. I still remember when CNU got their first program win against Salisbury in '14, in overtime. That was a massive shocker--CNU had been barely a blip on the radar before that.
So what would the recipe be for Kean or Stockton? Other than "SU/CNU all contract norovirus at the team meal at golden corral before the game."

Honestly, it would be next to impossible and Kean won't have their best SSMD, which will make it more difficult.

I agree, but Stevens is private they will get an AQ forever if they stay where they are.

Re: CLC 2024
I’ve imagined the MAC going to an A side and a B side (call them whatever you want) with some sort of relegation system. Pull Stevens and the Freedom runner up to the A side. Then each year the B champion flips with the A last place.laxdad1434 wrote: ↑Mon Apr 29, 2024 6:07 pmI agree, but Stevens is private they will get an AQ forever if they stay where they are.

Re: CLC 2024
I am curious about Kean and Montclair St. and the budget discussion. Each school has over 16000 students enrolled. Salisbury, CNU, and UMW combined might get to 16000. With all those students they couldn’t put a little more to athletics? Hire a full time head coach?DeepPocket wrote: ↑Mon Apr 29, 2024 6:37 pmI’ve imagined the MAC going to an A side and a B side (call them whatever you want) with some sort of relegation system.

They’re both commuter schools, only a fraction of them live on campus. Kean also has other satellite campuses that feed into those #’s.

While NJ produces a large number of quality lax players, the state colleges are way behind with their support of the sport. The state would rather pump tens of millions into a less than average RU football program while paying the coach a ridiculous salary before they pay a full time salary to a lax coach. No reason schools like TCNJ and Rowan don’t have lax teams.
