Cornell lacrosse 2025

Tambroni leaning hard on the first line. Some things never change.

[mike1960]

Cornell needed to take a TO there instead of getting out of sorts behind the goal.

[jjanow99]

I think they have to be in the offensive end to get a TO?

[mike1960]

Unintentional helmet-to-helmet from Cascadden. 2 minute nonreleasable. That puts the game in doubt.

[Mr. Niss]

Faceoffs a problem in the second half

Understatement, unfortunately!

[jjanow99]

Yeah looked like they just ran into each other.

[Trotsky]

12-10 1:38 to go.

Something very funny about Yee pumped into a lax game.

[Chousnake]

Just some bad decisions down the stretch by Cornell.  Knust with a bad turnover and Cascadden with a terrible penalty.

I think they have to be in the offensive end to get a TO?

They had the ball behind the net and were completely out of sorts. Needed a TO right there.

[mike1960]

Whew. Got the faceoff and TO. We need to be prepared to take the other TO if need be.

[Mr. Niss]

Whew. Got the faceoff and TO. We need to be prepared to take the other TO if need be.

I don't understand being in a position to be forced out of bounds there.

[Trotsky]

Ouch.  PSU played that very well.

Live thoughts:

1) It's cold as FUCK
2) Do goalies just suck in lacrosse?
3) How is a hit to head only 1 minute?
4) We don't chant red during the anthem?
5) The sideline is loud as hell
6) Why's the goalie the only one who gets to wear real pants and a sweater?
7) Don't they get cold???
Tracking the ball is harder than tracking the puck in hockey.
9) Those dudes with crutches showing up on the sideline for the team. Respect. Freezing their asses off too, I bet. At least they get coats.
10) Hey our goalie made some cool saves! Can they body block? Why don't they body block?

Live thoughts 2:

11) Tompkins trust shuffle, feels like I'm back in Lynah already
12) Taunting from the bench after a goal is appreciated
13) Kirst from Firth, Kirst from Firth
14) GET BACK IN YOUR CREASE GOALIE
15) Is lacrosse just slower?
16) Isn't it like, nearly impossible to strip someone of the ball? Given it's in the stick.
17) The guys who stand in the other zone while the rest of the team attacks - don't they get bored? Do they chat with each other?
18) Wait is their penalty box literally just kneeling on the sideline?
19) Again why is a HIT TO THE HEAD a 60 second penalty? And a push is 30? And a slash is 60?
20) Why are there so many timeouts??

Live thoughts 3:

21) Gloves help a lot with the Cold
22) Powerplay time! They don't call it that though. When do they get back on the field after? Can't tell.
23) Flopping is appreciated. Like soccer.
24) No nameplates on jerseys makes it tough.
25) Why don't more of the sideline guys wear coats???
26) The tradition of yelling at refs extends to every sport.
27) They celebrate saves more than goals
28) Do they just never have faceoffs?
29) God damn, MORE timeouts?
30) Is the field wet? Looks it.

Live thoughts 4 , the finale:

31) The goalie squatting with his stick held in front of his face will never not be funny to me. Especially when he's facing the net so his butt is towards the field.
32) Does the rush simply not exist in lacrosse?
33) So the sidelines are suggestions?
34) OKAY THAT WAS A RUSH GOAL HELL YES
35) Sitting on the ground not contributing to a play is encouraged
36) Oh my days that guy Goldstein just slung the ball through like 8 screens and still scored
37) Oh so the refs here also do game management penalties?
38) SO NOW A HIT TO THE HEAD IS TWO MINUTES??? MAKE IT MAKE SENSE
39) Their goalie's save percentage is in the 20s. Ours is under 50. Is this normal?
40) OVERTIME???

[jjanow99]

I can't believe this...

[mike1960]

CJ tried to do too much and was pushed out of bounds.  Penn State gets the ball, scores, and ties the game.
