Right, he just announces it really loudly when cornell scores and barely actually says they score when the other team does.

worst game by far for the cornell D. considering the cornell goals all come from 3-4 ft out and cornell is giving up goals from 10-12 yds out..

As Hillel said, our ssdm is our weakness.

Anyone else listening to some-Access occasionally think that Tom LaFalce (the color guy, a fellow '94) is playing in this game?  The BPB guy keeps referring to him by his full name...

Okay, I'm a lacrosse newbie, and have noticed quite quickly that this is not the sport to watch while multi-tasking (i.e. moving furniture, unpacking the dishwasher, coaxing the dog to eat). A few weeks ago, I saw the end of the Orange-Loyola game where the greyhounds barely hung on to win, and I did pick up that Syracuse can score, and score quickly.

I'm still trying to figure the rest of the game out and I have a few questions ::help:: which I could probably figure out if I saw a game in person. However, given that I'm watching on TV and with the camera angles, I'm having trouble figuring out the the following: 1) How many players are on the field at the time? 2) How many have "long sticks" v. short sticks and are there limits on the number ob each you can have on the field at a given time?  3) are there restrictions as to what parts of the field players can go to?

Thanks .

P.S. (I can wait until the end of the game for the answers ).

10, counting the goalie

I believe this is generally up to the coach or player rather than a rule. Typically, the 3 defense players have long sticks and the three attack have short. Midfielders have long, short, or middle-length sticks. The more defensive your play, the longer the stick; the more offensive, the shorter. If you have a long stick it's easier to check someone else but easier to be checked.

There is a midfield line. You must have 4 players, counting the goalie, in your defensive zone and three in your attack zone. The midfielders typically go in both zones, although you will sometimes see a defender cross midfield on a clear (with a middie back in the offensive zone). I've even see a goalie do it.

There are 10 players, 1 goalie 3 defenseman, 3 midfielders, and 3 attackmen. You have to have 4 people on the defensive side of the field and 3 people on the offensive side at all times. You can have a maximum of 4 long sticks on the field at once (this usually only happens when you are on defense).
