Cornell lacrosse 2017

Fwiw, Pendergast had 5 Ivy wins in his 3 years at Cornell.  Archer has 6 Ivy wins in 4 years.

But I think the trend with Archer is better, although slower than we would like. 2017 is certainly a critical year to show real improvement.

If you're drawing trendlines, Jeff Archer in year 3 would have had to win the opening game by 2 points *and* lose the entire Ivy slate while being held to 7 or less in the majority of them. Archer is also working to overturn Cornell's history of unsuccessful football, 60 years of it, with not one outright, unshared championship in 61 seasons.

I hope Archer is successful, & gets the support from the university he needs.  Just a reminder last year we went 2-5 in the Ivies, & lost 6 of our last 7 games.

Dave Archer. I beg to differ a little.  They were at least competitive under Jim Hofher in the early to mid 1990s.

http://www.insidelacrosse.com/league/di/polls/17 -- Maryland, Denver, Syracuse are 1-2-3 in the May 1 poll by USILA.

Harvard's win over Yale pushed Yale from 11 to 17. Cornell's win over Princeton pushed Princeton from 13 to 19. Neither Yale nor Harvard is going to the NCAAs without winning the Ivy tournament.

The poll has 3 Syracuse, 5 Albany, 14 Hofstra, 18 Army and HM Binghamton from NYS. So Cornell went the entire year without even a mention.

On to 2018.

I give up.  How do you win more faceoffs than you attempt?  According to maxpreps.com, Trevor Douenias did it in 10 of 12 games, with an overall winning percentage of 141.4.

Perfect candidate for the new combined B-school where he can major in mutual fund prospectuses.

Jeff Teat, second team All-Ivy!?

Princeton's Gavin McBride, who leads all of DI in goals per game, got Honorable Mention.
