Re: Cornell lacrosse 2023 end of season honors, postmortems - 11 months ago
I think that all here would agree with Quint and the other 2 sycophants om ESPN that 1) Corrigan should immediately be conferred with sainthood and 2) Pat Kavanaugh should now be considered as one of the greatest sports figures in modern history. In an unprecedented display of courage and athletic heroism, he actually (believe it or not) played with a sore hamstring. It was critical that theby woodpile - Other Sports
Re: Cornell lacrosse 2023 - 11 months ago
Yale left it on the field on Friday. This can only help Cornell tonite. Big Red needs to put Friday nite in the rear view and move on quickly. Ierlan is a seasoned vet and will come back I'm sure. Face off and defense need to step up. Go Big Redby woodpile - Other Sports

Re: Cornell lacrosse Princeton 4/29/23 noon - 12 months ago
So much for predictions, though I doubt many could have forseen the throttling that Adler laid on young Coulter. It will be interesting to see what the Princetonian clairvoyants will say should there be a rematch next Sunday. You would have to believe that Adler has taken up residence in the poor kid's head rent-free.by woodpile - Other Sports
Re: Cornell lacrosse Princeton 4/29/23 noon - 12 months ago
Princeton with an excellent effort. They are injury depleted and their superman scorer was completely neutralized yet they still nearly won. Suberb effort and an all around terrific, hard fought, entertaining game. Gavin Adler is better than all the praise he has received this year. What a great player. He is a warrior, a rock. Should be Ivy League player of the week. Maybe IL player of theby woodpile - Other Sports

Coyle is simply awful today. Completely disrupting the Cornell offense. What is with the offsides??? Trying to go one on three (two or three times)? Long needs to take controlby woodpile - Other Sports
Re: Cornell Lacrosse at Army 4/15/23 - 1 year ago
I have not been able to find an attendance report for yesterday's game. That was quite a large crowd at Michie which remains one of the greatest sports venues in the world. Until the plug is pulled out on the electricity for the placeby woodpile - Other Sports
Re: Cornell lacrosse 2023 - 1 year ago
After sleep-walking their way into a miserable loss to a mediocre Harvard team it will be very interesting to see how Cornell responds on Tuesday. I have a great deal of faith in both Buzek and Stevens' ability to right the ship but this team needs to understand that there is no free lunch. Marquette beat Penn State, a strong team, and Army is on a roll. Anyone remember last year's Army game?by woodpile - Other Sports
Re: Cornell lacrosse 2023 - 1 year ago
Superb effort on the part of a Big Red team coming off an uninspired and unimaginative (offensive) game vs PSU. I give unqualified credit to Connor Buzek and his coaching staff who have Cornell on a trajectory that is simply inspiring. CU has a coaching treasure in Buzek and he and Jordan Stevens need to be signed on for the long term. Welcome back Mikey Long, you were sorely missed. And witby woodpile - Other Sports
Re: Cornell lacrosse 2023 - 1 year ago
The offense today reminded be of the Kerwick years. No strategy, no focus, no concentration of attack. Pointless poor passing around the perimeter with no evidence of a game plan or pre-conceived evidence of any real game management. Buzek needs to regroup this week big time or bad days are ahead. Krist cannot be the only optionby woodpile - Other Sports

Re: Cornell-Princeton lacrosse 4/27/19 - 4 years ago
Princeton is at best an average team without Sowers. He is truly a great player but he is their entire story on offense. Nobody in the country but Teat makes that pass. Watch the replay. As above, the Cornell D should take a look at Princeton's and learn how a game can be won through physical, relentless effort. Cornell certainly has the talent. Combine smart, aggressive D with a terrific offeby woodpile - Other Sports
Re: Cornell lacrosse 2019 - 5 years ago
Towson is not in the same category with Yale and Penn State. And Towson killed itself by locking off Teat (I'm sure they saw it as the less painful option). Wonder what Shay's strategy will be. Teat was not faceguarded in the ILT championship game and he wreaked havoc on the Bulldogs.by woodpile - Other Sports

Laxpower may be folding, and this forum may soon see an influx of Cornell lacrosse fans who had been over there for years. Very devoted, informed group. Just a heads-up.by woodpile - Other Sports
Re: Cornell lacrosse 2017 - 7 years ago
Dom was teriffic at winning the draw but was a nightmare after the win. He was a turnover machine, sorry to say, the worst example being Harvard in 2015. This season, also against Harvard, he was 20 of 24 on face offs and the Crimson still won handily. He will not be missed nearly as much as many fans believe.by woodpile - Other Sports
Re: Cornell lacrosse 2016 - 7 years ago
The post was entered about 5 pm yesterday and was up for approx 30 min before it was deleted. It was authored by a person who claimed to be a friend and teammate of Dom's (and a recent grad) and who stated that Kerwick called DM in June to tell him he was " no longer welcome" on the team. The poster also stated that there were no off-field incidents; no other specifics were provided.by woodpile - Other Sports
