Quote from: KenPDo we know yet where the quarterfinal games will be played? Higher seed campus or neutral site(s)?

Our quarterfinal (should we make it) will be at Hempstead, Long Guyland.

"Neutral" sites: Annapolis & Hempstead.

Quote from: mike1960I will say: It's an injustice that Army is not in this tournament. Of course, they have only themselves to blame, etc., but they are better than a lot of teams here. I was actually a little worried about how we would match up against them.
a good team that couldn't stop losing isn't an unjust exclusion. the point of the season is to show how good you are by winning games.

Quote from: chimpfoodDon't like that we're set to play UNC at all. Not concerned about the first round but it'll be a fun game to watch and hopefully our first good weather home game of the season.

UNC led by Owen Duffy, son of Big Red Captain Bill Duffy '93 I believe.

All right, I'm going to be the wet blanket here—we have to win Sunday night first.
I really don't remember the Albany game earlier in the season. Didn't they hang with us for a while?
I know nothing about Siena.

I tried really hard to write that in a way to not offend the woofing gods. Just curious about the tournament format and venues... that's all!

Both playing well lately.  Need to come out motivated.  Play-in winner will be.

Cornell was up 7-1 after 1 and then 12-4 after 2, so not really.  Their winning streak at the end of the season has largely come against lesser competition.  But they know what to expect if they play us again, and maybe that results in a closer game.

The Albany goalie is making some quality stops tonight. He's no Blaze Riordan, but then who is?

Albany wins and so they'll have a 3-hour bus ride to Ithaca this weekend. At least Siena didn't have much of a long bus ride across town back and forth from Loudonville, in what was probably one of the shortest road trips for any visiting D1 lacrosse team
