The difference in intensity between the Princeton close D and the Cornell close D is stark.

Officiating leaving a lot to be desired

Without the face-off advantage this would be a significant ass whoppin'

Maybe, but the Princeton goalie has also taken probably 5 goals off the board that should have been layups. He was out of his mind in the 1st half.

That out of bounds play was something special. Huge gut check win.

great in bounds play and pass by teat to peterson with 8 seconds on the clock to score the game winner with 4 seconds left followed by a terrible faceoff violation that gave princeton one last shot to tie it but ierlan came up with the save. 14-13 CU.

pretty cool to beat princeton on a back door cut for a layup

Nice win. Cornell helped by some questionable calls and Princeton's D-man Baughan, who was guarding JT51 and who did a terrific job last year, left the game sometime in the first half (presumably with an injury). But a win is a win is a win. On to Yale in NYC!

So the Cornell game on Friday won't start until 8:30-9:00?

Princeton is at best an average team without Sowers. He is truly a great player but he is their entire story on offense.
Nobody in the country but Teat makes that pass.  Watch the replay.
As above, the Cornell D should take a look at Princeton's and learn how a game can be won through physical, relentless effort. Cornell certainly has the talent. Combine smart, aggressive D with a terrific offense and the sky's the limit.

That is correct.

It was a beautifully accurate pass. Two screens, off ball and on ball. They had to be perfectly timed. What a play!

Sowers was amazing, 8 points Saturday on top of 10 the week before against Harvard. Best player in lacrosse this year, overshadowed Jeff Teat, I was thinking. And then, wham, that Teat pass to Petterson for the GWG. Nobody else could do it.

Sowers is the much better athlete and Dodger.  Teat the better passer but physically he gets man handled at times by the elite D.

If only Sowers wanted to make the playoffs next yr.. Can you imagine how many pts they could score on the same team.
