Cornell Lacrosse at Army 4/15/23

[TimV]

Individual game threads would be good. It might clutter the forum with additional threads but by season's end they'll drop to the second page so, no harm done.

Done. Agree it makes everything easier. Who's going? I'll be there with both sons.  Three laxalums.  Although the younger one played for Yale:-/

[Al DeFlorio]

Maybe the most annoying play-by-play guy ever.

And another camera person who is less than competent.

Mikey Long is having a great first quarter!

That apparently same ESPN cameraperson continues to search for the lacrosse ball.

Maybe the most annoying play-by-play guy ever.

Grateful for the mute button!

Very exciting first quarter!  Army has a good defense. They swarm, so Cornell needs to keep moving the ball and finding the good shot.

That announcer has listened to too many play-by-play guys from the 1950s.

Beautiful dish by CJ.

[mike1960]

The color guy remembers Seabiscuit. Appreciate that.

[Al DeFlorio]

Offense struggling to get good shots.  Army picking on the shorties.  Now 4-4.

[mike1960]

Tied 4-4. Good pass by Army for a score. Also, they've scored twice coming from the X coming from behind and scoring from the 5X5 on Ierlan's left. That move has hurt us quite a few times this year. We need to play tighter over there.

5-4 Cornell. Nice work by Long finding the (really) open player in front of the crease. In the past, players have become frustrated right about now and started trying to win the game on their own. Let's hope they stay with team ball.

[mike1960]

5-5. Box badly beaten with shortie on shortie. No help.

[mike1960]

As expected, a tough, hard-fought game. I don't see any superstars on Army's team but they play together on offense and defense.

I'm at the game so I'm spared the pbp guy. Army is defensively stout and we're having no luck beating their guys. Both goalies solid. Time to strap it up for 2nd half.

[arugula]

Pbo guy is bananas but pretty balanced in his yelling.  What's with all the obscure Cornell references.  He just discussed Zincks
