Cornell lacrosse in 2011

It also seems that in two years, we'll be getting a Maryland All-Metro attackman, after a year at Deerfield.  Hopefully this kid, John Hogan, can put to as good a use as Pannell did.  He'll be a FR when Pannell is a SR, Mock, Gillum and Fiore are JRs.  Sounds like a good team to me.

Hogan is a middie, not an attackman

so this begs the question - is he going to Deerfield for his grades or to develop his lacrosse? i don't see us as having too many mids on the roster ... in fact i think we could use as many as we can get. this is the first PG year i can remember under Coach T, any thoughts?

Rob Pannell did a postgrad year at Deerfield.

Yes, but Pannell wasn't committed to Cornell when he went to Deerfield, he went there to do the postgrad year because he wasn't happy with his college choices beforehand; only had one scholarship offer, at Quinnipiac.

I suspect it is grades. A friend's son here in Syracuse had to go to Onondaga CC for a semester, to prove his ability to do the work, but was then guaranteed admission in the spring. He turned out to be a high scoring attackman.

thanks Josh ... you hit it on the head. what i meant to say was i don't recall sending a kid for a PG year after committing under Coach T.

Andrew West, senior goalie for Connecticut class M champion Darien, is headed for Cornell next fall.  Inside Lacrosse article here: http://insidelacrosse.com/news/2010/06/12/connecticut-high-school-state-championships-reports

Darien sophomore Case Matheis scored nine goals and eleven points in the championship game.  Hope he and West are good buddies.

I like this quote:

Losing, in essence, two senior classes will lead to some struggles, particularly early.

Truer words have never been spoken.  I don't see Mock taking Hurlery's spot, but someone will.

i don't necessarily know that won't be the case ... Mock stepped up big time in the NC$$'s

with that said, i'll put  money's on "i don't have a clue ... "

Certainly Mock will be a big part of the picture next year -- but who get's the third attack spot?  We've got returnees like Austin, Gilbane, Taylor and Gamble -- maybe one of them will step-up.  Or perhaps Lau or Gillum move back to attack from the midfield. And then there's guys from the incoming class like Entenmann and Bremner.  However it shakes out, there seems to be enough top-end talent to have a dynamic attack.

Seemed to me Hurley's height was a big advantage for his catch-and-shoot style at the crease.  Made it easier for Pannell to feed him.
