Cornell lacrosse 2020

[TimV]

wins over #26, #29 and #36. not popping bottles yet. 3-0 is nice though.

Yale plays at Cornell 1 pm Saturday, March 14, same as the ECAC hockey quarterfnals in Ithaca. Road trip!

Great.  Always love an afternoon lacrosse game followed by drying off and warming up next to Lynah ice.::rock::

Recall life before you could hang out (now: hang) in Bartels between periods where it is warm.

Yes and No- Harvard was able to get Gerry Byrne, the former Notre Dame defensive coordinator-Other teams had been after him for years.  Yale has been able to keep Andy Shay despite other schools coming after him (His contract was just renewed last year).  Point is not every Ivy coach is not looking to ACC or Big Ten.

Meanwhile in Ithaca, our head coaches of the past two decades:

Dave Pietremala, Cornell to Hopkins (Big Ten)
Jeff Tambroni, Cornell to Penn State (Big Ten)
Ben DeLuca, Cornell to gone to Duke to Harvard (asst) to Delaware (HC)
Matt Kerwick, Cornell to IMG Academy (Big Time)*
Peter Millman, Cornell now third season HC

Andy Shay being at Yale 17 seasons doesn't offset our coaching churn.

* Matt Kerwick seems to have gone laterally (?) since his time at IMG: From IMG director of lacrosse (summer 2017) to Tampa Preparatory School and Tampa Snooks / Sweetlax regional program (August 2019).

I'm surprised about the line. The Ohio State hasn't looked that great this year.

It would be nice to win ONE faceoff against Ohio State.

So we go to the long pole on faceoff and must concede the possession and hope for a turnover. Really disappointing.

Yeah, way too soon for that. Most of the faceoff losses have been off ground ball play, not off the clamp. I'd stick with Raz and Petrakis for now.

We need to win some faceoffs and have our goalie make more saves (giving up 5 goals while making 2 saves isn't a good percentage).

Agreed. Wing play has been disappointing

[mike1960]

Major coaching shot clock screw up by Ohio State.

[semsox]

Really bizarre scoreline given the way that half played out.

I agree. More Petrakis than Raz, IMO. Let the freshman get battle worn even if it means he loses a lot. We're not doing that great with anyone else.
