Snowy forecast has Lehigh and Cornell moving their game from noon to 11 am. Free admission, or on ESPN+. Lehigh opened Feb. 1, lost to Rutgers 10-6, improved that last Friday to a 10-7 loss to Fairfield. #2 / #3 Cornell should win handily. In theory. Cornell game preview: https://cornellbigred.com/news/2025/2/12/2025-mens-lacrosse-season-kicks-off-saturday-at-lehigh.aspx

We will be shifting up the start time to 11am for tomorrow's game against Lehigh in Bethlehem, PA. The forecast is calling for several inches of snow in the afternoon so we are hoping that the earlier start will allow us to get the game in without any weather issues. The game will not be a ticketed event, so it will be open and free to the public. We hope to see lots of Red in the stands for our season opener!

If you're crazy enough to drive (I'm, ah, sort of tempted): 151 Goodman Drive, Bethlehem, Pa., parking in the lots outside Stabler Arena. https://lehighsports.com/facilities/ulrich-sports-complex/2  Forecast says 30 degrees at gametime, snow showers change to snow at 1pm. If you're for some reason driving I-80 through NJ (Lehigh is off I-78), I-80 may still be closed one or both directions b/c another sinkhole opened in Wharton NJ (town, not the Penn school) about 10 miles west of I-287.

According to Lehigh, the fields & buildings at this complex were designed by Lehigh students using their learnings in engineering, architecture, marketing, and budgeting. One money saver: a two-sided press box, that is one press box sits between two fields, if I'm reading Lehigh's notes correctly.

I don't understand why Cornell doesn't have a list of some kind to let people know when things like game times get changed.  Its not only people with tickets who care. Without reading this board how would most people know the game has been moved up? Its not even on the cornellbigred.com site as a note unless you go clicking around to look for it. if nothing else put it in the scroll or the feed.

I got an email from Coach Buczek early this morning sharing the information which is likely the source for the person who posted the info here.  I don't think the decision was made before today.  It was on the Athletics homepage at some point this afternoon when I went in to confirm the start time of women's hockey, but the stories posted rotate and as results of today's games/matches came in, I am guessing an announcement about a time change at an away event that doesn't require tickets was easy to rotate off.

It feels like Christmas morning!

Go Big Red!!

The camera person is trying to follow the ball and not always succeeding. The camera is moving all over the place. I'm getting dizzy trying to watch.

Sweet offense finds Kirst on the door.

3-1 Good Guys.

[mike1960]

5-3 Cornell at the end of the first quarter.

2 Lehigh goals came on an EMO. We need to get better on our man-down defense this year, or stop committing penalties.

[mike1960]

We are moving the ball extremely well in game one. The players are trying more skip passes to get wide open shots. Interesting.

Man every year I forget how fun lacrosse is. Offense is looking how it should.

[mike1960]

10-5 Good Guys at the half.

Cascadden looks good at the FOGO position so far.

Not crazy about Wyatt's clearing passes right in front of the goal.
