Quote from: BeeeejAnybody able to get the 3pm Albany @ Cornell game on ESPN+? It's still saying "has not yet started" for me.
Same here.

Finally.
Looks like late start.  Women's game late?

Don't know. I really like it that ESPN+ uses Barry Leonard for the call.

Albany loves to swing the ball around the top to get the open outside shot. Cornell is going to have to hustle to on every pass to pressure the shooters. It's easy to get worn down after a while playing that kind of defense.

I like Teat playing crease attack. The crease attack is always "locked off" a little bit anyway. He freed himself running behind the goal and getting an off-ball pick.

Giving shooters too much space.

I would consider putting the freshman in the net the second half.

8-7 Cornell at the half.  Offense has been good with a number of beautifully assisted goals. D not great, but all of Albany's goals have been from the outside and Buhlen has to stop a few more.

As usual of late we're getting beat on the faceoffs, and the rare time we seemingly win the draw we're not able to pick the ball off the turf.

And we've been called for 5 penalties to Albany's 0.  But not saying it isn't warranted.

Agreed. But whenever I see him I think, "why didn't his brother join him at Cornell."  I know you have to go with who you have, but it's hard not thinking about what could've been.

Me, when it seemed as if TD was coming to Cornell: "Faceoffs are such a unique feature of lacrosse—I love them!"

Me, when he went to Yale: "Faceoffs are a vestige of a different era and should be abolished!"

Teat is so accurate with his shots and passes.

Are our home jerseys new?  They look far whiter to me.  It may be the snow.

Switch to the hockey.  Final minutes still down 1-0.  Cornell leads in total shots (on goal, blocked, and missed) 106-16.

It came back after a few minutes.

This Albany comeback is getting scary.

I'm still upset about whatever the call was against Wallace after he stripped the Albany player near the start of this run.
