Cornell vs Dartmouth men's lacrosse 4/18/26

[rss77]

Start the thread. Looks like Dartmouth has some potent offense but have collapsed in 2nd half last 2 games.

Cornell in lacrosse looks like BU in hockey. Incredible individual talent.

Cascadden has won almost every single faceoff.

Cascadden has won almost every single faceoff.

Inside Lax says he's 9 of 11.  That's insane.

[Cornell95]

Luzzi hits the pipe off an excellent strong move to the front of the net
Long Dartmouth possession, Tully with a nice save and outlet

clear, Cornell timeout to draw something up with 15secs left in half
forced pass to the crease and a length scrumm in front of the goal before the Dartmouth goalie gets the ball as time expires

Cornell is clearly the stronger team, but Dartmouth is maxing its talent on offense with good cutting and passing. Tully made two point blank saves early to keep Cornell close. This also points to our sometimes questionable cutter defense. We allowed three good passes to the cutter, with one going in. I'm sure Dartmouth scouted it this out about us.

Viewers can't see the entire field, but it looks like Dartmouth kept a man on offense near the sideline at one point to play 5 on 5 lacrosse so they have more space to operate. I'm not sure how successful they were. We are sliding early and on everything up top and forcing the ballcarrier to pass. It's working pretty well.

Early on we had several passes that kind of went awry of our sticks. More wall ball needed with gamers? Some slippage on the field too. We lost the ball a couple of times because of it.

Split screen coverage? What a wonder!

[Cornell95]

Dartmouth with 3 unanswered takes the lead 7-6

Cornell wins another FO, good offensive possession getting the ball to Nurry above the crease, but goalie turns shot away

[Cornell95]

Robinson hits a pipe

Several not great shots that Cornell at least had backed up
Another shot from up top 20+ feet out (with plenty of shot clock remaining)
Saved and cleared by Dartmouth

Cornell forces shot clock violation
5mins left in the 3rd... still 7-6 Dartmouth leading

[Cornell95]

absolutely atrocious sequence of passes/turnovers below GLE
Dartmouth coughs it up entering the offensive box and Gilmartin sprints it out

Ball gets worked around an Nurry scores
7-7

[Cornell95]

Tully with a great save at the end of the 3rd, stoning a cutter that slipped out of the pack
still 7-7.

prior Cornell offensive possession again just terrible
not sure if Robinson has the greenlight from well outside or the coaches have an audible for him to rifle it very wide to get a restart from behind the goal LOL

[Cornell95]

Dartmouth gets possession to start the 4th on a Casscadden violation
Cornell gets a goal from Goldstein in transition

8-7
