Yes, now down by 3.

Quote from: dag14Lost most of the faceoffs early but have started doing better. However, too many unforced errors.

Can't hold on to ground balls after picking them up.

14-11 final, as we have a terrible 4th quarter being outscored 4-1. I think Colgate is better than most observers thought, but we have a lot to work on. As Al said, we couldn't pick up ground balls, which is most disappointing. Need a big rebound next week against Hobart.

we lost 22 of 29 faceoffs and everyone after we led 10-9.. cant win games losing 75% of the faceoffs.

Plus 5 failed clears compared to 1 for 'gate. This defense can't survive losing the possession battle that badly. Now to retreat to the cold comfort of "it was our first game."

Our D could not compensate for the FO disparity as we did not cause too many turnovers. I really thought the FO unit would be more competitive. We didn't lose many cleanly, which puts the onus on the wing guys, and we were just outworked and outhustled.

My take, also. Too many infractions on faceoffs, too

I think the fact colgate was game 3 and we were game 1 played a bit.. even if was just 2-3 more possessions

Meanwhile Albany (who we play in 2 weeks) blew out Cuse in the Dome, 15-3.

It was the Danes' first game too.

Cornell needs to recruit a face-off specialist.

We got one of the best HS guys coming in, I believe for next year

quite the first half.. hobart scores 5 to go up 5-1 and cornell runs off 7 in a row to lead 8-5.. teat with a 6 pt half..

this team just needs to find a way to play half a game with the ball. the changed up the faceoff mid first quarter and that seemed to make bigd difference so far.

that might have been the quietest 10 pt day i have ever seen. teat seldom had the ball and scored so many pts.

from 1-5 down to 15-8 up. quite the turnaround.

SU in trouble again vs army today.

upprdeck · February 24, 2018, 04:50:35 PM

SU might have saved the season with a big come back from 7-2 down to will 11-10 in triple OT. They will be beatable.. They also struggle at the x

Penn knocked off #1 Duke 10-9.
