That's twice Dartmouth decided not to slide on the ball carrier down the alley after he beat his guy.

The Dartmouth goalie is repeatedly getting beat high.

Dartmouth stops the run at 5... Casscadden wins ensuing FO out the front and charges down to score on a bouncer
13-8

Great broadcast and announcing from what I was able to watch. Dartmouth defense was phenomenal until they ran out of steam in the fourth quarter.

Cornell95 · April 18, 2026, 05:21:43 PM

Dartmouth goes on the EMO following a push by C Box
Number 13 has had a good day overall with a couple CTOs I think

Cornell holds, still 13-8 with just under 3minutes remaining

I hope Gilmartin is OK. We can't afford to lose him.

mike1960 · April 18, 2026, 05:23:25 PM

Stop the ball on the fast break! Make him pass it.

Cornell95 · April 18, 2026, 05:25:41 PM

Dartmouth with a pole goal
Casscadden ith another win.

Firth killing clock running the entire zone before scoring on empty net

Nice win against Dartmouth in Hanover. We've got to get our set offense figured out if we want to make noise in May.

agreed, not a lot of assisted goals today
all those shots from 20'+ are not going to work in torunament play

It also helped today that Dartmouth's top faceoff guy (who was second team All-Ivy last year) didn't play. Cascadian dominated the faceoff circle.

And we thought Castagna was the best faceoff man at Cornell...

Not anymore. He's gone. Oh, wait, you said "was." It feels so good after struggling so many years going back a decade to be .500 on faceoffs.

I'm thinking of TD Ierlan of Albany 2017, 2018, then Yale 2019, 2020 (Covid shortened), then Denver 2021, college career FO% 75.1%, best season 2018 at Albany 79.1%, went 26x26 against Harvard. There was talk (hope?) that when Ierlan wanted out of Albany, he might come to Cornell, him being from nearby Victor, NY. Instead he choose the Bulldogs and we lost to Yale 16-11 during the season (Ierlan 24x30 FO for Yale) and then were ousted by Yale in the first round of the Ivy tournament 15-10 (Ierlan 21x27) and that ended our season.

Ierland was so dominant there was talk (some) of a quarter-opening faceoff and then after a goal, the ball goes to the team just scored on.

The video was excellent: good camera angles and the video director (if there is such in college lax) tellng the camera to zoom in, rather that going with a camera covering from the end line almost out to midfield. I watch on an 85" TV (hey, the one I have is $1000 now) and it's still not showing enough.

The announcers were okay to good. I really wish the announcers really were neutral even if they're linked to the home team.
