MCLA Season Preview: Colorado Buffaloes

February 4, 2015

Many people claim that MCLA lacrosse teams are weaker or can’t compete at the NCAA level. I beg to differ. To participate in the NCAA, a team must be able to compensate for their travel (airfare, hotels, meals, transportation, missed classes, communications with professors, etc.). With that said, Colorado has become the lacrosse-mecca of western USA and the Colorado. Buffaloes are ready to show the NCAA what it’s missing. Colorado…

The Buckeyes are gearing up for their inaugural appearance in the Big Ten.  They had a decent showing in the ECAC last season, ending 6-7 overall. Even with the loss of  two valuable seniors, Joe Muerer on defense and Greg Dutton in goal, the Buckeyes still look to the 2015 season with hope and determination. The scarlet and grey have chosen their captains to lead them to victory this season,…

@proctorpac on Twitter Photo Credit: Ian Neadle The Terps finished their last season in the ACC at 13-4 which is not a bad record in such a power house conference. This year they are in a newly formed BIG10 Conference with still a lot of big name schools and some up and comers. Sure they will still have their huge rivalry game against the always tough Johns Hopkins Blue Jays…

NCAA Season Preview: Syracuse Orange Look to Light It Up

February 3, 2015

The Syracuse Orange have very high expectations this year.  To get an idea of what these expectations are, their seniors are on the record using the phrase “championship or bust.” Nearly every player that goes to play for the Orange does so knowing that they want to compete for a national championship.  The Orange were last in a championship game in 2013 when they lost to Duke and last year…

NCAA Game Preview: Lehigh to Open Season at Home Against Marquette

February 3, 2015

Photo Credit: LehighValleyLive.com Coming up this Saturday February 7 is the opener for both Lehigh and Marquette. There’s a lot of amplified following behind Lehigh this season, and Marquette still stands as a strong program also. I predict Marquette will be a bit off-beat to start 2015 as they don’t see their home turf until their fourth game of the season. Their first match-ups away are Lehigh, Hofstra and Richmond….

NCAA: UVA Can’t Catch a Break

February 1, 2015

During this past offseason the Virginia Cavaliers released Danseglio (defense) from both the team and the school. He transferred to Maryland. Now, in their final preseason exhibition match, sources are claiming other defenseman Tanner Scales injured his Achilles tendon enough to sit him out the rest of 2015! Scales was going to be the one to step up and take over the command void left by Danseglio. Now that it’s…

A Different Kind of MLL Draft Review

January 31, 2015

The MLL Draft is almost a week old and everyone has had time to give their draft grades as well as their surprises of the draft. With more time than I probably needed, here is a little bit of a different break down of the draft. Some of it is a little look behind the scenes and some of it is actual draft analysis and some of it is just…
