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.

[quote scoop85]Also, GTown beats Duke, 11-7. Amazing.[/quote]

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).
