Penn at Cornell Men's Lacrosse Saturday, March 29, 2025

[chimpfood]

It's still unclear whether Long, who went down during last week's match with Yale and had to leave the game, will be able to take the field this weekend.

"He's day-to-day right now, but trending in the right direction," Buczek said. "Fortunately, we've got an incredible training staff that gets these guys ready to go and makes sure that they're safe and healthy."

The Tuesday after Penn, Cornell will face University of Albany (2-7, 0-2 America East), its only non-Ivy League opponent for the remainder of the season.

Does this mean the April 12 game against Syracuse has been cancelled?

More likely just a mistake.

Less likely: Welcome to the Ivy League, Orange!


(They were actually invited, but turned them down, I hear)

Doesn't everyone say that tho? Lol

I had an employee that said Trenton state (now the college of NJ) turned down the offer as well.

That was the gist of my joke. Seems like every eastern & near-midwestern school older than 1956 has claimed that at one point or another. I don't think I've ever heard a Syracusian say that, but I would not put it past them.

Lol. Agreed!

Long is playing today.

[Chousnake]

Why does ESPN+ have the game starting at 12:30?

[mike1960]

Was the game start time changed?

[Trotsky]

Cornell schedule still says noon but ESPN+ not latching so, maybe?

[mike1960]

Was the game start time changed?

The Penn Men's Lacrosse Twitter account says the faceoff just took place and the game is under way.

[Trotsky]

Game has started.

The Penn Men's Lacrosse Twitter account says the faceoff just took place and the game is under way.

And Cornell scored.

[Trotsky]

2-0.

[mike1960]

Now it's on. 4-0 Cornell.

Didn't see it, but it was important to score early and get into the all-star goalie's head a little bit.

[mike1960]

Defensive mistake, Penn goal.

Then sharp pass from Sheehan to Waldman. Step down: 5-1 Cornell.

[mike1960]

Mikey Long seems to be feeling pretty good today.

Dodge from side right.

6-1 Good guys.

[George64]

Now 6-1 near end of first period. 7-1 with 26 seconds left.

[mike1960]

Man, that was a laser from Sheehan. Overpowered the goalie.

[mike1960]

Firth pass across the mouth of the goal to Kirst on the doorstep. A thing of beauty.

9-1 Cornell.
