Hurley with the takeaway off the Yale clear and easy goal, 1-0 CU
Seibald with a laser, 3-0 Red.
Also, GTown beats Duke, 11-7. Amazing.
Seibald with a really pretty shot from outside makes it 3-0.
Hurley to Ritchie. 4-0.
Edit: I can't spell today.
Got this back from ICS when I asked why the webcast wasn't up: "Cornell is perfecting the feed. It will be up before game time."
Nice to see that the Crescent is open this afternoon, even though weather.com is reporting the temperature on East Hill feels like it is 19 degrees Fahrenheit.
4-2. Sloppy ground balls.
5-2. Glynn with a nice feed from Hurley.
Er... 4-2. Why the hell is Glynn playing with an illegal crosse?

Doubt he knew it. Pocket was just a bit too tight.

Is it possible for the cold to affect the performance of the webbing?
Very sloppy after a great start
Another penalty for Nathan. Maybe the lacrosse team has decided to follow the path of our men's hockey team last night.

Guess anything's possible... tough call and an accidential trip (albeit a real trip accoding to the color guy) against cornell and they can't get out of their own end.
We're turning what should have been a rout into a close game.
Comedy of errors since 4-0
Now that's sloppy. Getting a turnover on the man down and doing a poor job of clearing it and turning it back over for an easy goal.
4-4. Myers made a good first save, but couldn't track down the rebound.
5-4. Elis. Tramboni needs to calm his team down.
Think we need a time-out.
6-4. Yale starting to smell blood.
And theres the timeout. Need to settle them down, making all kinds of mental and strategic mistakes. Bad passes, rushing it, not backing up shots, etc.
Biggest problem is they're beating our D.
Gut check time. That illegal stick call just stopped us in our tracks.
Seibald trying to do too much. High-risk passing. Poor shooting. Better get settled during halftime.
Not sure I agree that D is the problem. In that half Yale probably has possession for something like 11-12 minutes. Giving up 3 goals in that time actually seems to me to be bordering on impressive, esp considering they killed 3 EMOs in that period.
Because everytime the offense got it they'd either make a bad pass, or try to force it by running through 3 guys and getting trapped, on and on the rare case they got a shot off people they gave up possession, it wasn't backed up half the time.
Time for the offense to settle down, have some good possession, find some open men, and put some in the net.
How many posts have we hit?
Camera man is driving me crazy.
Not impressed by shot selection. Can't seem to work it inside.
Seibald makes his own look. Tie game. 7-7.
Another poor shot choice--by Romero.
[quote Al DeFlorio]Another poor shot choice--by Romero.[/quote]
Agreed. He didn't really have a good look, he just tried to collapse on the net.
Yale hits the crossbar in the waning seconds of play. Going to overtime.
OT is a crapshoot.
How have we been doing on face-off this game?
Shoulda shot low.
Great chance of the Seibald face off win, but excellent save by Yale
I think we have only won three or so. Yale has been dominating. Seibald just won the faceoff in overtime, but the Yale keeper got a stop off the fast break.
Another poor shot.
Yale with another defensive stop.
Yale with an illegal procedure. Cornell possession.
Seibald with a critical ground ball pick-up at midfield. Tramboni calls a timeout.
Time out Cornell. They have possession and 35 seconds left in the first OT.
Hurley with a spectacular charge with :01
Hurley!
So reminiscent of Seibald at the Cuse last year.
Wow! That was pretty cool. Hurley(?) took it from behind the net with 6 seconds left and took it all the way and scored.
Didn't Seibald do something similar last year v. Syracuse?
I guess this is a case where it's good that the selection/seeding criteria looks only at wins and losses, not how easily you won. 20-7 is no better than 8-7 in OT.

Yup. The play looked a bit different I think, because I think Siebald did just like a direct charge while Hurley there kinda took a looping route (but I'd need to see a replay to be sure). Nonetheless, hell of a way to pull it out.
Thanks for all the updates!
And thanks to the lax team for averting a complete disaster of a weekend in Cornell sports.

And to think that this is the third win of that type this season. We could easily be 3-3 instead of 5-1.

Yeah, I was thinking how this win takes some of the sting off of hoops and hockey.

Some of those Duke players must be getting pretty old at this point. Can't get up and down the field like they used to back when they were college aged.
Interesting that a major factor in Georgetown's winning rally was a three-minute nonreleasable penalty on Matt Danowski for having an illegal stick (apparently "too short," according to his coach and papa).
