Cornell lacrosse in 2011

Halftime.  8-2 Red.

watching the Brown feed.  Announcers are reasonably knowledgeable (but no Barry and Howie), but their banter is inane

Were they just talking about their childrens' bedtimes?  If so, then it's the same as the audio.

Um, yeah -- really pathetic stuff.

Yeah, same guys. A bit of homerism, but decent.

Four assists for Pannell, by the way.

Pretty far fall for Princeton to not even make a four-team Ivy tournament if they mess up next week. I'm having trouble following the possibilities but it seems no matter how bad Princeton's record, they still have a shot at making the Ivy tournament.

So, 8-2 at half. Pannell with 4 assists, Lang with two goals, balanced scoring overall.  Brown hasn't had many chances, but Fiore came up big in one sequence in the 2nd period when it was 5-2.  Field conditions are abysmal.  Brown has committed a slew of unforced turnovers.

While we missed some golden opportunities, can't really complain about a six goal lead at a place that hasn't always been especially hospitable to Cornell.

Lang with the hat trick!  Now 9-2 just into the 3rd qtr.

End of the 3rd.  15-4 Good Guys.  

Time to empty the benches.

This is a really nice job just taking care of business against an inferior opponent on the road.  Our inadequacy at the X has been alleviated all game by Brown throwing the ball out of bounds uncontested after winning the faceoff.

FO's only weakness today, but Brown has committed so many turnovers after winning the faceoff that it hasn't mattered.

I swear, I didn't see your post before I said essentially the same thing ::burnout::

A friend of mine who's a lax coach told me that faceoffs on grass are very different than on turf.  I wonder if that, plus the state of the field, has a lot to do with it.

[Jeff Hopkins '82]

Now 18-5.  

Brown announcers give a shout-out to Schafer.

[Jeff Hopkins '82]

Brown with 27 turnovers!  Wow.

[Jeff Hopkins '82]

Ivy Leauge Champs!

(Yeah I know we clinched it earlier.  This feels better.)
