Beautiful move by Goldstein!by mike1960 - Other Sports

That possession looked MUCH better. They spread things out and created space for the shooter.by mike1960 - Other Sports

That 10th goal for Cornell was huge. We're still in this if we can step it up on D.by mike1960 - Other Sports

Wow, we are terrible on defense. I've never seen a Cornell lacrosse defense this inept.by mike1960 - Other Sports

chimpfood upprdeck Gonna be a slop mess tonight.probably the type of game we want against a better team used to a dome. I hope you are right, but we had lots of trouble with our passing in the rain at The Pennsylvania State University.by mike1960 - Other Sports
Re: Men's lax Cornell at Penn 3/30/2024 - 4 weeks ago
rss77 The only insight that I have to offer is that the winning goal was scored when the ssd Gilmartin slipped and fell and allowed Rubin to shoot hands free. Just a stroke of bad luck IMO. That is true, but the score should not have been that close. Our talent level, at least on offense, is without a doubt higher than Penn's. It doesn't feel like we are maximizing what we have.by mike1960 - Other Sports
Re: Men's lax Cornell at Penn 3/30/2024 - 4 weeks ago
Ken711 Freshman goaltender. He'll get better. It wasn't the goalie's fault. It was free hands in prime shooting areas, including the winning goal. I don't know how far we're going this year.by mike1960 - Other Sports

Iceberg I couldn't see who that one Cornell player by himself was but I don't know how he missed the net from point blank I think that was Long that shot high.by mike1960 - Other Sports

Re: Men's lax Cornell at Penn 3/30/2024 - 4 weeks ago
We've been cranking up the defense the last two or three possessions, playing tight and sliding hard. We need to do that from the first faceoff.by mike1960 - Other Sports
Re: Men's lax Cornell at Penn 3/30/2024 - 4 weeks ago
It feels like we are really predictable on offense.by mike1960 - Other Sports
Re: Men's lax Cornell at Penn 3/30/2024 - 4 weeks ago
It feels like we're constantly looking for the perfect shot. That's a big 6x6 goal. Make the goalie work.by mike1960 - Other Sports

This short stick defense is killing me. They are just running past them to the topside and shooting.by mike1960 - Other Sports
Re: Men's lax Cornell at Penn 3/30/2024 - 5 weeks ago
upprdeck The key to this season is will the D get better. We can score given chances but the D has to limit the easy goals we have been giving up We let Yale get up top two or three times. That's going to happen sometimes in lacrosse, but those are easy goals for a D1 shooter. We were beat on the right wing against a shorty on one possession and no one picked up the ballcarrier, and he went riby mike1960 - Other Sports
Re: Cornell lacrosse 2024 - 5 weeks ago
Quint has us #6. 6) Cornell “Hard Hat 21” is now in the catbird seat to host the Ivy League tournament after defeating Yale on Saturday following last week’s win at Princeton. The penalty kill unit and CJ Kirst won the day in the high scoring affair with Yale. Cornell’s offense is multi-pronged and dynamic. Just love watching this group play. The defense is not good, ranking #62 in theby mike1960 - Other Sports

mountainred ugarte Ken711 upprdeck maybe his style its an easier path to the tourney for him? Or having to face Yale and their 7 foot center for 2 more years.Or he'd rather live in Virginia than Ithaca? Yale fans are convinced Wolf is taking NIL money and bailing, but they could be seeing ghosts. Williamsburg is an odd place. Summers are brutal because it is nearly swamp land (worse thanby mike1960 - Other Sports

Ken711 mike1960 Cornell lacrosse won. Cornell won the ECAC hockey championship. Arujau wins another national title in wrestling. A very good day! Yes it was. The only downer is Brian Earl leaving. It was a downer, but kind of expected. I appreciate what he did for the program and wish him well.by mike1960 - Other Sports

Re: Cornell lacrosse 2024 - 5 weeks ago
Good win today! The team played well on both sides of the ball. They really fought from the wings on the faceoffs, and they did some damage with the rides. I didn't mind R Goldstein getting in the face of the Yale Bulldog. You never want penalties, of course, but I like a player who claims the field, esp. a freshman. Cascadden has that quality too. He doesn't take crap from anyone. Shouldby mike1960 - Other Sports
Re: Men’s Basketball 23-24 - 5 weeks ago
Tough news, but I guess it was expected that he wouldn't stay forever. I hope the AD chooses someone who knows how to win, even if it's at a lower division. Choosing assistant coaches based on pedigree and coaching trees is a gamble.by mike1960 - Other Sports
Re: Cornell lacrosse 2024 - 6 weeks ago
ugarte Duke v Syracuse on ESPN+ and 'Cuse is leading 8-2 late in Q3. I caught a little bit at the end. That Syracuse defense plays hard, and they play together. That's going to be a tough game.by mike1960 - Other Sports
Re: Cornell vs Ohio State NIT game - Preview - 6 weeks ago
chimpfood Seems like we are incapable of beating power teams, just seems like a mental block honestly. I think we played a great game without Manon and being outsized by a lot. We've got a good program going now.by mike1960 - Other Sports

Re: Cornell vs Ohio State NIT game - Preview - 6 weeks ago
semsox mike1960 semsox Officiating has not been kind, but we are showing alot of fight Ya can't get in another player's face in college. They'll call that every time. Somehow I doubt the same play made by OSU is resulting in that same call. My comment also wasn't meant to be limited to that play, as OSU has rightfully been playing us very physical given their size/athleticism advantage all gaby mike1960 - Other Sports
