So far what I’ve watched.
Hopkins looked good. But sloppy. Albany D stinks. Some goals were too easy.
Navy kicking it to Duke right now.
Notre Dame transfer on Delaware scored 5 and 2 albeit over Lehigh but their Goalie Is really good.
So much for Coastal being On the come up and surviving without Downey although Mcllwaine is really good.

Coastal choked. Had a free position with 25 seconds left to tie it and did not tie it. Back to Duke

I will root against Duke for the rest of my life , calling a stick check with .9 seconds left. Ridiculous. Good win by Navy.

And the Coastal game was fun. Sometime I rather watch an evenly ranked middle of the road team than ranked games. Especially when they are playing laughers.

Lmao. My wife just gets home from work. She sees what I have on the tv. She goes “what are you watching?”
I smile. She goes to the fridge, hands me a Coors light and says, “isn’t there a Rangers game.You got two years to go before this.”
I laughed. Rangers game starts at 830 tonight but thanks for the beer. She shook her head and walked out.

These service academy teams are always a joy to watch. The effort is always off the charts. Army just pulls ahead of USC in the 3rd.

It couldn’t have been as bad as the free position a girl from UDel had earlier. The penalty was on the goalie. She had an open net and shot the 8 meter wide. Lmao. Announcer goes “I’m sure that wouldn’t happen in the middle of the season.”

Absolutely..they have insane work ethic. So when they get 1 or 2 really talented players they go on crazy runs

This is the beginning of the end for Duke as a perennial top 20 team. Clemson will take their place. I think most people saw it coming. The cracks were there in previous seasons but their supreme talent was able to temporarily plug up the holes. The ship half sunk last year and this year it's under water. Recruiting wise they have nothing in the pipeline to be able to compete in the ACC.

Didn’t look like Lopinto had any problem playing with a new team huh. Picked up right where she left off. Will get the game winner in the National Championship. Book it.

I still think they’ll get the pump that they always get before he year but their play will dump them during the season like it does. A lot here say it’s coaching. I don’t k ow enough about coaching to say it is or is t, but I agree. Not much that we know about in the pipeline.

Army puts an end to Loyola’s run this year. I stand by my original statement. Which many have called ridiculous but I have thick skin. 😀
As I wrote this, USC goes up 2. But I’m still posting it. I don’t care about this game. They upset Loyola in the Pat league tourney. Jeez! Let me finish without scoring. USC up three now. 🤣

One thing that I have noticed today and not so much last year, so many freshman taking the draw for these teams today in the games I’ve watched.

Duke overrated as always, proven today. Great game by Navy without their best offensive weapon.
USC nice win over Army both teams looked tough. Where is Nicole Humphrey?
Surprised UVA didn't have a bigger margin over Liberty, seemed to have starters in all game.
BC; is Clarke injured?

Why are u thinking a good game . Albany hasn’t been competitive in years .
REALLY? Guess you don't follow Lacrosse. Do your research before you grab the keyboard.

Albany not only made the playoffs last year - they knocked off UVA in the first round of the NCAA's.
I think that was more about UVA…less about Albany.
Let’s see how it goes today. Maybe I’m wrong
No freakin excuses allowed. ALBANY BEAT UVA in the 1st round of the Tournament. UVA had better talent than Albany...and Albany won anyway. Cut the crap about "that was more about UVA" At the end of the game, it is more about UA...because they won and UVA lost.

ONE GAME? You're making predictions after ONE game? Take that "Book it" and sell it along with the Brooklyn Bridge that you bought.

If you're so impressed with Lopinto after one game, then you must wonder why she didn't take Florida to the National Championship??

I’m the one that expected a better showing by Coastal. Downey was pretty much 90% of the offense last year and they are working to establish an identity offensively.

They did choke—it was a winnable game and they did put some young players on the field along with others that didn’t see the field last season. I expect they will improve as the season goes on.

I think the first 4 goals for VT came from man up situations. I’ll have to check the stats but those penalties hurt.

Happy to see Duke drop one to Navy. Some good kids on the team and they have some good kids coming in for 2024.
