NCAA game was 3/20 so that was the Wednesday between Game 4 & 5.

Thank you. Every season I win I feel slightly more humbled. Again, thank you.

My fears are:

I love to lose round 1 of playoffs, happens most of the time I qualify
NC beats me every time I play him
Towson have a ridiculous fixture so NC defense may score really high
UVA vs syr being a goal fest so Schutz racks up the goals
Brandau has a big game then a medium game most weeks and he just had a big game.
The form of my midfield is awful

Good luck NC and other qualifying coaches.

Unlucky Matt, glad you still won coach of the year, good to see the powers at be recognised your achievements regardless of failure

Hindsight is 20/20. With that said, I should've used the 2/17 Navy game in place of last week's Hampton game for Towson. I knew Hampton was weak. And... while Towson gave up 2 goals to Hampton, they only gave up 5 to Navy. Not so different. Strangely.

With hindsight, I should've used the 2/23 St. Joe's game in place of today's Monmouth game. St. Joe's is a better team but... Monmouth is also good. Towson gave up 2 goals to Monmouth, 7 goals to St. Joe's. A bigger difference than Hampton-Navy. But, again, hindsight. And, UK, in hindsight, yup, I agree. St. Joe's would've been a better match-up. And... I dunno. Hampton clearly is a D3 team playing D1 lacrosse. That's an easy switch. But Monmouth on 4/20 vs. St. Joe's on 2/23. I dunno. Not as obvious. But, with hindsight, clearly it would've been a better match-up.

Yes, hard to predict and, though 1/14th of a Fantasy Roster, much bigger than that in the actual NCAA game. D matters.

Yeah it is but that’s not reflected in rosters.. just not sure if there’s a way to improve defense doing it by individual players. Just food for thought more than pushing for it
