Cornell Lacrosse Saturday May 1: We're IN

Beat Princeton and Ivy Tournament is in Ithaca.

Brown beats Dartmouth 10-9 in OT. Dartmouth tied with 1:57 left in regulation
Yale beats Harvard 9-8

Ah, thanks. I'd see the Yale score, but couldn't find the Brown one... nice.

Beat Princeton and we play Brown in the first round, in Ithaca. Lose, and we play them again,in Princeton. Which is in New Jersey.

Tough order if Pannell doesn't play.

Tough order if he does.

5-3 Cornell at the half. BUT, we had a great shot to go up 6-2, but Hurley put on off the crossbar. Princeton then came down and on an unsettled situation a longstick beat Fiore. In the last few seconds, Ritchie was stopped after a good opportunity, and then Cornell committed a penalty. Princeton will have a short man-up to start the 3rd.

We dominated the first number of faceoffs, but Princeton then began taking over at the X in the 2nd.

9-3 after three. 11 of 12 goals scored while attacking to the TV's right.

[Edit: Now 14 of 15 goals scored to the TV's right. Sun in the goalie's eyes?]

Cornell's gotta score here. Can't sit on a three-goal lead.

< whew >

Cornell hangs on win 10-9 after an awful 4th quarter, but not quite bad enough.

No doubt in my mind, Al. Stupid 5 PM start - sun was very low.

17 of 19 goals scored at the end of the field to the right. Ah, the joys of scheduling for TV.

Nice pick up, though. Thanks Al.

Doesnt look like there is a game time yet but funny that the game is on Slope Day, wonder how many students they will get

If anybody is interested in watching the game after the fact (perhaps because they had to attend a relative's surprise birthday party) it is streaming for free on ESPN 360.

We noticed it at the game. Not only was the sun right in Fiore's eyes, but you could see that every Princeton shot was heading for the upper corner to Fiore's right, i.e. coming right out of the sun. It seemed a great strategy on Princeton's part, actually. Because other than that, Princeton had no answer to our defense.

Edit: And a Lang goal as the #10 play on SportsCenter. Nice.

Interesting factoid (to me, anyway): but for the Dartmouth blip, our regular season losses this season were to the same teams as in last year's run to Memorial Day. That being said, this season has had a far different feel. This may have been Tambroni's best coaching job overall (which is saying a lot).

Given the way the Ivy League season has played out, next weekend's winner is anybody's guess. Even though home hasn't been exactly kind this year (granted, two of the losses were to the # 1 and 2 teams), I'm sure the team is thrilled to get the tournament on the home turf.

Any idea on game times for Friday?

The off day is the opening of the spring booksale, which could be an added incentive to alums... [www.booksale.org]

Since it is at 8pm vs the middle of the afternoon, probably will get more students if they are not not drunk enough to make it there

That was a really slick goal.

(And that's all I have to contribute to discussion, since the SC clip was all I saw of the game.)

Big Red #6 in RPI.

Doubt you'll get that many of the casual student fans considering it costs 10$ for a ticket to all three games or 8$ for just Friday.

This is an Ivy League event, with ticket prices determined by the league, so your Big Red Sports Pass is NOT valid for admission.

We encourage you to come out and support the Cornell Big Red in this highly anticipated rematch with Brown on our home turf! Student tickets are available for purchase at cornellbigredtickets.com, at the Athletic Ticket Office in Bartels Hall or at the ticket booths before the game. Tickets for the semi-final round on Friday (includes both games) are $8 for students; tickets for the Championship Game on Sunday (played at 12pm) are $5. An all-session ticket can be purchased for $10.

I guess they are really encouraging the all session tickets with those prices. Why are the all session tickets not available online?

Has Cornell set some kind of record this year for Top Ten Plays appearances? Whitman had that crazy shot in a tournament before Xmas, we had a bunch during the NCAA's, and now this.

Not that I'm complaining.
