I love this time lapse video of Hobart Lacrosse’s game this weekend.
Make sure you take some time to read Jason’s Week 6 Media Poll post.
We’re just over halfway through the 2017 season and one thing is clear to me: any undefeated team deserves a spot in the top 20. Now you may disagree with where I have teams slotted, but they’re all there. Although the transitive property doesn’t always hold and can break down if you take it out past two or three places, there’s still a place for head-to-head matchups.
Jim Brown's teenage son is following in his father's footsteps ... as a killer lacrosse player -- and TMZ Sports has the video! FYI, Jim has been hailed as one of the GREATEST lacrosse players of all time (in addition to that whole NFL Hall of Fame thing) ... and it's clear his son, Aris, has his father's gifts.
BU’s Daily Free Press goes over their first loss of the season.
The Terriers (7-1, 2-1 Patriot League) entered the contest in the midst of their most successful season start in program history, while the Bison (3-4, 1-3 Patriot League) searched for their first Patriot League win of the season.
“[Bucknell] just played a wonderful game and played as if their season was on the line, which it was,” said BU head coach Ryan Polley. “They were 0-3 and needed a conference game and I thought they played great so I give them all the credit.”
RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRUTGERS is you new Media Poll #1!!
Two years ago, the Rutgers men's lacrosse team finished 5-10. Half of those losses were to ranked opponents. "I am proud of how this group competed and fought ... against top-10 and top-20 programs,'' Rutgers coach Brian Brecht said at the end of the season. Monday, his Rutgers men's lacrosse team ranks No. 1 in the country. Thanks to its best start in six decades, Rutgers stands atop the Inside Lacrosse Media poll. The Scarlet Knights' 8-0 record is the best to open a season since 1955.
Army released this nice clip of one of Nate Jones’ goals versus NJIT.
What a weekend for college lacrosse on ESPNU — a one-goal game Friday as a top five team remained undefeated, a surprising upset of a former No. 1 in OT on Saturday and another OT affair in an ACC matchup in Charlottesville. It was all capped by a shocking result on Sunday.
Three games can be seen this week on ESPNU starting Friday with Yale vs. Princeton. Watch a Saturday doubleheader featuring Maryland vs. North Carolina and Duke vs. Syracuse.
