MLax: Cornell 7 @ Duke 6 (FINAL)

[Al DeFlorio]

Duke picked Belisle off Danowski and got a short-stick middie on him instead.  That's a bad situation for us.

[Al DeFlorio]

Have to do better than 25% on faceoffs.

Nice way to capitalize on duke's mistake trying to capitalize on our mistake

[Jacob '06]

and a no call on a loose ball push leads to a duke goal.

[Al DeFlorio]

Not an impressive first half for us.  Weak on faceoffs, ground balls, dropped passes, etc.  Would have been nice to come away only one goal down.

We just seem really tight to me.  Dropping the ball, throwing it away, and not moving very well without the ball.  Let's hope we come out of it in the second half.  Key is getting the ball, so we need better faceoffs.

At the half...can I just say how fantastic the video is??

No problems, a clear, smooth, widescreen picture that can go full-screen, with 2 cameras who know how and when to zoom in and out.  The only complaint from anyone so far is faint sound.

And the single game purchase option is brilliant.

I couldn't judge a push, but we're playing sloppy

We've dropped our sticks (with the ball in it) at least 2 or 3 times (sticked checked yes, but come on), turned it over nearly every possession, and can barely win a faceoff.

Low scoring game, so its very much in reach, but, gotta clean it up.

Duke does video right. Somebody send a tape of the game to Andy Noel.

Four bucks gets you: a one-game sign-on that doesn't automatically sign you up for the rest of the season, multiple cameras, an announcer dedicated to the video (not the radio guys doing voice-over), no commercials, instant replay, instant replay that the announcer can see and comment on, reasonable image quality, and no drop-outs.

Cornell should be embarrassed.

[Jordan 04]

Bartlett?

4-3 Duke

[Jacob '06]

Nice ball movement on offense there.

[Jacob '06]

Seibald ties it up!

[Jacob '06]

Cornell up 5-4, is this the same team that played the first half?

[Al DeFlorio]

Couldn't get the ball after taking the lead--other than the time we failed to clear.  Faceoffs still killing us, or we might be ahead by one or two.

Audio must be slightly ahead of the video.  Guy is calling saves while the ball is still in the air.

[Jacob '06]

There you go Al on the faceoff win

It's nice to hear those "Let's go red!"'s :-D
