Re: Cornell lax — 2025 playoffs - 8 weeks ago
chimpfood scoop85 chimpfood Don’t like that we’re set to play UNC at all. Not concerned about the first round but it’ll be a fun game to watch and hopefully our first good weather home game of the season. That would seem as good an opponent at that stage of the tournament as any. Who else would you want—-Syracuse? Notre Dame? They’re all credible teams at that point.Yeah I would rather play cusby Swampy - Other Sports
Re: Cornell v Princeton 5/4, ILT mens lax FINAL - 8 weeks ago
jjanow99 Was hoping Princeton would be tired after late Friday game, not the case I guess. I have the advantage of having watched the game on TV before coming to this forum. But I never expected to see Princeton's tiredness having an effect until around late in Q3. Also, on Friday the ESPN announcers said they wanted to see how Cornell plays after only 2 days' rest before they declare Cornby Swampy - Other Sports

Re: Cornell v Yale 5/2 ILT SEMI - 8 weeks ago
mike1960 CU77 mike1960 When we're in man-to-man, Yale is working hard to get the short stick matchups for a reason. The reason being that two of our top SSDMs, Box and Bozzi, are not playing. Box has not appeared, and Bozzi had some shifts at the start but then stopped. Neither played against Dartmouth. Yeah, the reason I was thinking is that we're getting beat.

Re: Ben Robertson transfer - 8 weeks ago
BearLover Denver’s NIL collective goes towards three sports: basketball, gymnastics, and lacrosse. No hockey. Hockey or not, this mechanism legitimizes side payments, which make it easy to get around the IL's prohibition of athletic scholarships.

big29red As for Kelleher, it's not just the scoring, but the attention he attracts as soon as he steps on the field. Everyone else gets open space, and the team flourishes! Well, in the Dartmouth game, CJ didn't get much open space, and Dartmouth made the game close.by Swampy - Other Sports
Re: Cornell lacrosse 2025 - 2 months ago
BearLover Since this was debated by others awhile back, I went on insidelacrosse.com to see how our recruiting is looking. For 2025’s entering class, we are holding our own. Our recruiting is around that of the other Ivies. The ACC is dominating, however, with Duke, UVA, UNC, and Notre Dame way ahead of the Ivies. For 2026’s entering class, which was the point of concern when this topic pby Swampy - Other Sports

billhoward WederI went to the '07 Final Four in Baltimore and sat in the upper deck and enjoyed it a lot. But I like sitting higher at hockey and lax because I like being able to watch plays develop from that angle. It's not possible to get high enough at Lynah for my preference.

Re: Memorial Day Weekend Lacrosse Ticket Strategies - 2 months ago
billhoward Advance-sale tickets appear to hosted by third-party sites and there are surcharges. That are not disclosed upfront. One can still buy at the gate. It's not worth asking about ticket allocation ratios/numbers for the schools. I'm not sure the NCAA would do other than spit back a gentle murmur of an answer that says nothing and implies, up yours, busybody. Do not worry about ticby Swampy - Other Sports

Is Cornell v Dartmouth a trap? - 2 months ago
This could be a classic trap game. Dartmouth has won some respect this year and has nothing to lose next weekend except their pride. Meanwhile, Cornell might be lulled into a false sense of security by Dartmouth's history & record. Cornell also might be looking ahead to the ILT & Memorial Day.by Swampy - Other Sports
Re: Cornell lacrosse 2025 - polls 4/21/25 Cornell #1 - 2 months ago
billhoward Cornell as of 4/21 (and 11-1) remains #1 in both media and USILA/Coaches polls. Now 5 weeks at the top. The longest stretch of any team this year. billhoward Syracuse - Richmond - Harvard hover around 10-12 in the polls and that has an impact on whether at season's end we get credit for beating top 10 or top 15 teams. I believe the NC$$ does not use the polls to seed teams. Thby Swampy - Other Sports

billhoward upprdeck i wonder if they can even get permission to fly the drone over campus that fast the way things move in campus. Not to politicize this august forum but ... some might say at least in the past, one could paint the drone body in the colors of the Palestinian flag. It'd be seen as the cries of an oppressed people, and untouchable by Cornell. <yes, is joke, too> BTW watchiby Swampy - Other Sports
Re: Cornell hosting the Ivy League Tournament - 2 months ago

Now that it's been settled, and Cornell will host the Ivy League Men's Lacrosse Tournament, what do you want or suggest to make the tournament better? To start the ball rolling, here's a suggestion.
