NCAA Bracketology V2: You Should Probably Win As Much As Possible

April 19, 2016

Here’s a scary stat: 84% of the regular season has been complete. 16% of the regular season remains. Some teams still have a game, or two, or maybe three left. But many teams also have their respective conference tournaments to participate in as well. They’ll get started next week with the Patriot and ACC tourneys happening, with the other conference tournaments occurring in two weeks. This year’s field for at-large…

College Lacrosse Weekend Preview: All Chaos Conference?

With so much drama in the ACC, it’s kinda hard getting into the NCAA Tournament scene. But they, somehow, some way, keep coming up with interesting storylines every single day. I’m no Snoop Dogg, but if you use your imagination and tinker the first four lines of Gin And Juice with ACC references, it’s actually a pretty good summary of the conference’s season. Except Notre Dame, who’s sitting comfortably as…

NCAA Bracketology V1: There’s Still Time

Is it too early to start predicting brackets? Some may say yes, others the opposite. Joe Lunardi already has a way too early 2017 NCAA Basketball Tournament Bracketology, and we just got done the hoops tournament last week! Teams don’t know if they’ll lose someone to either the NBA Draft or to transfers or even who they might gain via transfers and commitments. But in lacrosse, we have less than…

Alright, so some conferences have already started their conference schedule. But this weekend, nearly every team that’s playing will have a conference game, including the CAA, which opens up conference play on Saturday. For some teams, it’s a chance to get that top seed in their respective conference tournaments en route to a possible automatic bid. For other teams, the road to the postseason begins now. One loss might be the…

The third-ranked Orange return to the Carrier Dome for their only home game of the month to take on in-state rival St. John’s at 4 PM. The Orange enter the game with a 4-0 record, with their last game coming off of a win against Virginia 14-13 last week in Charlottesville.

It’s time for some teams to prove one of two things. Either they’re contenders when May comes around, or they still need some work to do. It’s been about a month since the season got underway, and we’ve seen Towson, Hofstra, and even Rutgers rise into the Top 20, while Duke, Virginia, and Georgetown have been disappointments thus far. But is this the biggest weekend of the season? Sure there’s been…

The third-ranked Orange travel for their first away game of the season as they take on 15th ranked Virginia Friday night at Klockner Stadium in each team’s ACC opener. This will be the 31st overall meeting between the two legendary teams, with Virginia holding the slight 16-15 edge in the series. The Orange are coming off of a highly-contested 9-8 win over Army West Point last week inside the Carrier…

Senior goalie Warren Hill made a career-high 10 saves and midfielder Tim Barber scored the eventual game-winning goal as the Orange escaped the Black Knights 9-8 Sunday night at the Carrier Dome. The scoring began with a Cole Johnson unassisted goal after the Black Knights stymied the Orange offense for the first two minutes of the game. Derek DeJoe tied things up at one before Connor Cook‘s man-up goal and Tim Coll gave Army a surprising 3-1…

#4 Syracuse Tops #12 Albany 16-7 In Early Season Meeting

February 22, 2016

Syracuse stormed out of the gate early in the first quarter en route to a 16-7 victory over in-state rival Albany Sunday afternoon in the Carrier Dome. The Orange came into Sunday’s game without graduate transfer attackman Nick Piroli, who head coach John Desko said would be week-to-week with a lower-body injury. Senior Tim Barber took his place, as he spent some time at attack last season when Randy Staats was injured. Barber…

Madness? THIS. IS. FEBRUARY LACROSSE! If you don’t know what movie that sort of is from, it’s from 300 (and you should probably watch at least that scene right now). We have a great slate of Division I games this weekend, including six of the top ten teams in the nation taking on another ranked team. Many of these games are on Saturday, so set aside your Saturday. SATURDAY #1…
