Quote from: scoop85Teat named game MVP with 3G, 3A as the NY Atlas defeated the Denver Outlaws 14-13 in a wonderfully entertaining championship game. All the Cornell guys made an impact, with Kelleher adding a goal for NY, Adler playing terrific defense, and old friend Jon Donville scoring a goal for Denver (they listed Donville as being from "Maryland" but we know he's truly a Cornell guy).

I was meh on the PLL prior to this season, but with so many of our guys now in the league I watched quite a bit and really enjoyed the pro game. I'd prefer they lengthen the shot clock a few seconds on the possessions, but otherwise the games have been fun and the league seems to be building momentum.
Is there a list of LAX Alumni in the Pros?

Was it ever confirmed is CJ was playing with a broken hand and a pulled hamstring? And if yes, (seriously) how is it possible that he could play and perform at the level he did?

Quote from: Ken711Last week, Walker Wallace, a first-team All-Ivy League long stick midfielder, helped the Cornell men's lacrosse team win the national title. Now, the Richmond native is transferring to #UVa to play football. He will be a tight end for the Cavaliers.
To play football??

Yes, for football. Several lacrosse players have made the switch, most famously Chris Hogan, a Penn State midfielder who did a grad year playing football at Monmouth and then went on to have a decent pro career as a wide receiver.
We had a wrestler, Ben Honis, who played linebacker (well, special teams) at Syracuse for his grad school year.
Wow. The more you know. Didn't Wallace also switch positions in lacrosse at some point? Feels like I recall that.

I mean it's probably difficult to go play lacrosse somewhere else after winning the NC, so probably best to play a different sport entirely. Guess he doesn't play hockey like his brother?

I think Walker Wallace came to the team as a goalie.

I thought Winter and Walker Wallace were unrelated?
I think it started as a joke but was taken seriously. Walker from Virginia; Winter from Colorado.

They still could be brothers. ::innocent::
Brother from another mother.

Quote from: Chris H82For those who weren't there, I've put some photos from the tailgate party and the post-game celebration on a photo-sharing website:
https://chris-h-stuff.smugmug.com/School/2025-Cornell-Lacrosse-Championship/n-DSs6xK

At the tailgate, evidently there is a recent (?) tradition of passing out shots of Fireball (I'm guessing it's that since it's Red) and then a booster/alumni (could be both?) makes a toast to the team and the crowd.  It was really cool.
You caught me in one of your pictures!! I was in the food line at the tailgate, holding my poncho.

We had a veterinary emergency last night so I have an extra ticket. PM me if you want it.

I'm flying up Monday morning for the game. Three questions:

(1) What section? I'm thinking section 108 or 109 since it is more midfield and my understanding is Cornell section is 107....

(2) We fly back early Tuesday out of Logan. I would prefer to stay closer to Boston but I don't know the area. And cute towns worth between there and Foxborough? Anyplace to avoid?

(3) How is the merchandise they are selling at the stadium?

Cornell is being outplayed on faceoffs and ground balls.  Need to improve that

Here's the Saturday weather forecast for Hempstead (storms are more likely to impact the late game) A chance of showers and thunderstorms, then showers likely and possibly a thunderstorm after 2pm. Cloudy, then gradually becoming mostly sunny, with a high near 80. South wind 6 to 10 mph. Chance of precipitation is 60%. New rainfall amounts of less than a tenth of an inch, except higher amounts possible in thunderstorms.

Does anyone maintain a lacrosse version of "Alumni in the Pros"?  I'm assuming it's just PLL and no international leagues...?

Quote from: KenPDo we know yet where the quarterfinal games will be played? Higher seed campus or neutral site(s)?

All right, I'm going to be the wet blanket here—we have to win Sunday night first.
I really don't remember the Albany game earlier in the season. Didn't they hang with us for a while?
I know nothing about Siena.
I tried really hard to write that in a way to not offend the woofing gods. Just curious about the tournament format and venues... that's all!

Our offense seems to have a tougher time in sloppy weather... is anyone worried about the rain tomorrow? Similarly will it hinder Princeton's style of game as much?

Any injury updates? Any chance they will be back this season?
