Annoyed that I’m not able to watch any of the b1g10 games today but sounds like there were some good ones
Really just tells you a lot how narrow the gap in All-American level talent in D3 and the overall talent pool in D1 is in lacrosse compared to other sports with Kevin Rogers being the leading goal scorer for a top-20 D1 team after being a D3 All-American. There's very little chance the first-team All-American players in like football and basketball would step up to D1 and immediately be one of the top players for a top-25 team. Hell, they likely wouldn't even be recruited by those programs. Duncan Robinson is probably the best example we have, wasn't an All-American because he only played one year at D3 and it's exceedingly rare for a D3 freshman to be an All-American, but he went to Michigan, sat out the required year, and was merely a solid role player. Guy would have been a multi-time All-American had he stayed in D3 and probably a contender for National Player of the Year eventually.
yeah there's always been some really good players/teams at the d3 level (too many good players and not enough d1 teams). it's fun seeing those guys jump up levels and still have great success and proof positive that there's some great lax at the lower levels. i remember when i was coming out of high school and got some looks at some d3 schools - i was never not going to d1 school (and not playing lax) but it was an eye opener just how good the play was (even at that time).
Yeah Salisbury waxed Drexel 13-5 in a scrimmage, and Salisbury isn’t the juggernaut behemoth we thought they were going to be after losing to Lynchburg 10-8. But both Lynchburg and Salisbury are great teams though. I know a few years ago Lynchburg had their best player transfer to UVA and i think he was a starter there or a regular contributor off the bench.
Actually looks like UVA probably put Joe Lisicky at LSM because he was third on the team in caused turnovers and fourth in GBs for non-FOGOs, a backup close defender wouldn’t get enough PT to do that.
big weekend of d1 action. #Rutgers Scarlet Knights vs. #Maryland Terrapins saturday at 3 on btn is the highlight
Denver beat Georgetown today 13-7. A big victory for Denver over what had been a great Georgetown team to start the year
#Rutgers Scarlet Knights with easily the biggest rutgers athletics victory of the weekend today at johns hopkins. i'm not sure what would even come close (but seriously, that's a big win. jhu was playing some good lacrosse the last few weeks) https://www.insidelacrosse.com/arti...ith-no-6-rutgers-fourth-quarter-barrage/57513
just an incredible game. duke led by as many as 7 (12-5), and cuse just tied it (13-13) with about 9 go in the game.
this weekend is going to be amazing and it (mostly) fits in with the basketball tournament #Notre Dame Fighting Irish vs. #Virginia Cavaliers saturday at noon #Maryland Terrapins vs. #Rutgers Scarlet Knights round 2 sunday at noon hopkins penn state sunday at 2 amongst many many others. and of course, north carolina and duke will face off next thursday at 7 on accn
Shit totally forgot today was Thursday and Duke and Carolina are playing on ESPNU. Should be an amazing game. Check it out
#Notre Dame Fighting Irish put the fucking beat down on #Syracuse Orange today in the dome. 18-11 was the final and at one point we went 11 for 11 shooting. #Rutgers Scarlet Knights vs #Ohio State Buckeyes on btn right now. Rutgers up 2
There’s another coming next year and apparently he’s the best of the 3. Think Mikey Powell of the Powell’s
Welcome. This is, unfortunately for you, the only place in the world Rutgers is better than you at this moment in time. Feel free to look around but don’t feel forced to stay if you’re not enjoying your time
This #Virginia Cavaliers #North Carolina Tarheels game on espn2 has been fantastic. The acc is just an amazing conference this year. 5 teams that can win it all
Felt shitty losing to uva 2 weeks ago but, uva and nd May be the two best teams in the acc at the moment
Great podcast with former #Virginia Cavaliers star Chris bocklet. Suffered a traumatic brain injury on New Year’s Day. It’s amazing he’s even able to do this
Should be a great great game tonight. Duke needs to figure out their offense apparently. Virginia playing as well as anyone in the country
Get pumped bwi2 edit: oops meant to tag JPWahoo wow that was embarrassing... but seriously, what a game and it’s insane thata the last time these two played. So excited for tonight
Been one of biggest gripes with this last month or so. For the first time 5 years, we’ve had an early and really great spring and I haven’t been able to go to a game.
Shit man I’m so embarrassed I can’t believe that happened Spoiler please don’t rub it in when duke kills nd next Thursday by 20
just a beatdown for the bc women over nd. hopefully there are no more scores and it ends in 2 minutes...
ACC lacrosse has been absoultely incredible. thought we'd lose all 3 acc games we've played we've gone 2-1. thought uva would struggle after they got destroyed at syracuse, they've been the 2nd best team in the country. thought duke would roll, that offense that stalled. all 5 teams can make it to memorial day
