Cornell is deadly in unsettled offense.

Too much high to high from Piatelli.

I'm happy they are trying to hit cutters. Without Aiden Blake, they need a more diverse offense.

I see where Coach Buczek retired from professional lacrosse. What a great playing career!

Good win against a very good team. Let's hope they get some rest before Monday!

The final today was 17-9 Cornell. Face-offs we're 18-11 Big Red.

Because I have no life, I re-watched some of the game and I come here before you to once again beat a dead horse. The Cornell offense really looked good when they were quick hitting cutters at the crease. Yes, the goalie stuffed them but those plays usually result in slam dunks. The offense found a weakness in the goalie above his left shoulder, and so never needed to go back to hitting cutters. But I wish they would go back to this in the Syracuse game because it diversifies the offense and because they are really good at it.

Who was the color commentator during the Harvard game? When I watched the Yale game a few weeks earlier, it was only the play-by-play guy. The broadcast was much better with a knowledgable color commentator.

Howie Borkan '81...excellent.

I hope we win today. Of all the regular season games, regardless of how it hurts or helps our tournament chances, this is the one I care about the most.

He usually does radio, right? I wonder if this was a one-time thing or if they're switching it up for good to give the ESPN+ broadcast, which presumably has a larger audience, a two-person booth.

For ESPN+ Ivy league broadcasts, the feed is the one supplied by the home school. Our guys in the broadcast booth are better the Yale's.

Howie lives and works in NYC so if his color commentary is missing at a game, it means he couldn't make the trip.  Tom Lafalce -- a Cornell employee who also does a great job -- is the other regular color guy.  He was at Colgate I believe.

Did LaFalce play at Colgate?
