Re: Men's Lax Tournament 2024 - game times - Yesterday
billhoward This was just coincidence ... your last sentence included Money, Trump and Fairness ? I'd like to believe any college lacrosse player whether just turned 18 or maybe 22 or 23, no one is so young or so old a game at 6pm vs. 8:30pm is going to affect his abilities. I get the advantage of the ECAC 1-seed at Lake Placid wanting the 4 pm semifinal game for an extra 3 hours of rest fby upprdeck - Other Sports
Re: Cornell lacrosse 2024 - Yesterday
Win 1 game and they are in. Lose 1 game and who knows G-town/yale/princ/penn are all playing for 2 spots if Cornell wins game 1. Who ever loses princ/yale is probably out. Still Cornell losing to Penn is bad. Probably best if Yale wins the thing if Cornell doesnt.by upprdeck - Other Sports

Getting out of a lAX game at 1030-1100 isnt fun. Good news is the crowd wont be that big that time of night.by upprdeck - Other Sports
Re: Cornell lacrosse 2024 - Yesterday
Princeton was out.. Now they are back on the bubble, they could win the IVY Mich could win the B10 Denver loses to a bad BE team and Gtown loses in the finals could get a WC in from there. I dont think any other leagues can cause an issue. We are probably safe but there really isnt a ton of wiggle room, We are probably the safest of the IVY now and they all cant win 2 games to geby upprdeck - Other Sports
Re: Cornell lacrosse 2024 - Yesterday
Trotsky chimpfood Ivy League Instagram already says that the bracket is locked in and to be played in Ithaca, is this right even if we lose?The schedule on the CU site already has us playing Princeton at Schoellkopf Friday, May 3 at 8:30pm. they really going to start the game at 8:30. Should be more like 4/7 if they want people to show upby upprdeck - Other Sports
Re: Cornell lacrosse 2024 - Yesterday
So a cornell win makes it Cornell Princeton Yale Penn Really need to beat Penn then because 2 losses to them and Penn perhaps winning the Ivy puts Cornell back on the bubbleby upprdeck - Other Sports

D has gotten better. Goalie play has improved. Better job winning faceoffs. It all adds up. A few less unforced turnovers so the offense has more chances would help as well.by upprdeck - Other Sports

Compared to 20 yrs ago where I could find 25 people who wanted tickets when I couldnt go, I cant give them away anymore and haven't for a good 7-10 yrs.by upprdeck - Hockey
Re: Goodbye Alumni Fields... - 6 days ago
All students get free bus passes all over the city now. you can bus up to EHP. Its not that far. compare it to many colleges. Look at PSU football. from the center of many of those dorms its a mile to the stadium. from the center of Cornell campus its just over a 1.5 miles to baseball. Look at Syracuse soccer/softball fields. Thats about 1.5 from center of campus as well. Now kidsby upprdeck - Other Sports
Re: Men's Lax Tournament 2024 - 6 days ago
It's going to be tight if we don't win the first playoff game. If we were to lose to Penn we would have 2 losses to them. Win the IVY and we could get to 5-6 type seed.by upprdeck - Other Sports

It would be a disappointing loss for sure. The NCAA is not a lock, and a bad loss would really hurt if they don't win the IVY. Dart lost to the top teams by 7-10-3 and Harvard by 6 brown by 3.by upprdeck - Other Sports

Re: Men's lax: CU-Notre Dame Sunday 4/14/24 - 13 days ago
we had 30 sec EMO which didnt help either. I think ND had a 2 Min one which we held to one goal and even that was a fluke.by upprdeck - Other Sports
Re: Cornell lacrosse 2024 - polls 4/15 week 10 - 13 days ago
Reality is 10 is about right. we beat SU/Yale/Prin we lost ND/Den/PSU/Penn Harvard left to play as a top 20 right now If we had beaten Penn we would probably be 6-8 right nowby upprdeck - Other Sports

win 1 and just make the final 4. Then hope for 2 to get the #1 seedby upprdeck - Other Sports

Re: Men's lax: CU-Notre Dame Sunday 4/14/24 - 14 days ago
cornell needs to win the next 2 to make sure that even get into the tourney. Still had the ball late and a bad TO.. That was a story all day though with to many unforced turnovers.by upprdeck - Other Sports

Re: Men's Lax: Brown at CU 4/6/24 - 22 days ago
The academic standards thing is real though. Much easier to get kids into some of the other ivies than it is Cornell if the grads are not up to snuff.by upprdeck - Other Sports

Re: Men's Lax Syracuse at Cornell 4/2/2024 - 24 days ago
Beat Harvard and Brown then ND becomes a game for a good seed. got 3 quality wins and 3 quality losses, Beat ND or win a rd in the ivy and they are in the NCAA. lose both and the Harv/Brown games are must wins.by upprdeck - Other Sports
Re: ECAC Early and Grad Departures 2024 - 25 days ago
If they IVY is all about the degree you would think letting Grad students play would be a student first thing. Its really counter to what they stand for that kids would skip semesters can come back and play but kids who graduate can't.by upprdeck - Hockey
Re: ECAC Early and Grad Departures 2024 - 25 days ago
Give My Regards There is also something called a "medical redshirt", separate from the traditional redshirt. If an athlete suffers a season-ending injury before the halfway point of that season, and if they have played in no more than some small fraction of the team's games/meets/whatever (I think it's 25%), then they can get an additional year, even if they've already had the traditioby upprdeck - Hockey
Re: Men's Lax Syracuse at Cornell 4/2/2024 - 25 days ago
a full 5 min and then a sudden death would be fine. both teams would pretty much get the ball 2-3 times, a chance for FO to happen a time or and a chance to Ds to play as well as the Os.by upprdeck - Other Sports

its hard to be accurate though.. Where do you get the numbers from? often you have several box scores of sports and they are different.by upprdeck - Other Sports
Re: ECAC Early and Grad Departures 2024 - 25 days ago
Of course nothing stops a kid who isn't going to really play much as a FR from taking a semester off to not be on schedule and getting 5 yrs to play 4. the LAX guys can do it because the sport doesn't really go across semesters. A discussion that other sports do by RS without the grad restriction the Ivies have.by upprdeck - Hockey
Re: Men's Lax Syracuse at Cornell 4/2/2024 - 25 days ago
A big issue you can see in this era of lax with the video is on the replay.. Cornell basically has the wide camera and some low stuff.. But like hockey, you need something that is zoomed in to deal with goal replays. They dont need to be manned but they need to be there. I would say there has been easily 10 goal plays with no idea if it went in or not because the only replay is from the badby upprdeck - Other Sports
