]Why is Duke tanking?

One answer could be recruiting overrated "me only" prima-donnas.



subtle way of saying LI head cases have poisoned the team culture. very nice

Do at least 30 seconds of a roster review, 3 LI girls on a team of 35. I think the opposite is true, not offering girls until after 9th grade year has many top LI girls already committed.

This is not the case, just last year they committed at least one 9th grader (CSH), I'm sure there were others. Appears they aren't attracting top talent, they only beat Elon by 1.[/quote]

You must be really stupid . Now you are blaming future players for current losses. Elon is better than you think .[/quote]
[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why is Duke tanking?

No I was 1st responding to quote about Duke not recruiting 9th graders. Then I was making a separate comment on last nights game. Thought it was simple enough to follow, clearly I should've been more specific so you could follow along.

The West can't play against the East. No threat West of Chacago

Summer after 9th and a sibling of current player.

C U later

Not too many intriguing match ups today. Few ACC

Monroe CC 36, North Country CC 0. What the F? What kind of coach would allow his team to score that many goals in a game against an obviously out-manned opponent? They had to know, going into the game, that they would win by a lot. But, then to allow this kind of thing to happen under his watch is a disgrace.

It was 24-0 at halftime, and he allowed his team to score 12 more in the 2nd half. Horrible sportsmanship. This will come back to haunt them. Onondaga is their next opponent, who is also not known for their sportsmanship. Could be an interesting game.

By the way...there's no shot clock in NJCAA games. No reason to force a shot or beat the clock.

36-0 is ridiculous. That coach just put a HUGE target on his teams back. Onondaga, Anne Arundel and Howard are their next three opponents, all on the road. Anne Arundel and Howard are back-to-back days. These are the four best teams in the NJCAA.

I just watched a little of the stream of the game and there was no slow-down on MCC's part. I fast-forwarded to the 2nd half and the score was 28-0. MCC drove hard to the goal and fired a shot, like they were trailing 0-28. NCCC only had 2 shots, which tells me that MCC was also playing some pressure defense, and that their poor sportsmanship wasn't just confined to the offensive end.

Wow, that's pretty poor. I can only hope karma comes around and MCC gets their well-deserved comeuppance.

I do too. The fans are still loudly cheering even when those late goals were scored, as if it was a tight game.

Crazy that these games even get watched except parents. I hope that it's parents or players posting.

They do get watched. Sometimes, depending on the weather, they have good crowds. More than some lower NCAA games. I've been to D1 NCAA games and there'd only be like 50 people there. The top 4 NJCAA teams (Anne Arundel, Howard, Monroe and Onondaga) regularly schedule NCAA D2 and D3 and NAIA teams for scrimmages to prepare for the season and generally do VERY well. Every year, quite a few girls on these top 4 teams move on to all divisions of NCAA and NAIA, if they want to. So, yes...people do come out to watch. Granted, it's mostly parents, but how is that any different than any other women's lacrosse game (except for the Maryland's, UNC's, etc)? And, why do you hope it's a player or parent posting?

Didn't say they weren't any good. I guess you are the worlds only women's juco lacrosse junkie. Good for you weirdo.

True. You didn't say they weren't good, but you implied it by saying that you can't believe these games even get watched. I'd rather watch a juco team full of players that really love to play rather than Stony Brook.

Stonybrook is pretty entertaining I'm told, but I only watch when I have close relatives involved and I have to. Anyone else who can watche a 20+ goal juco blowout must have a lot of free time on their hands.

Huge crowd at the USC vs SB game. At least 3,000 people. Maybe more. Big crowd for Northwestern but not as big as USC game.

1000 at NW and 2500 at USC. Pretty nice.

And I get how going to the game with some young kids can be good inexpensive entertainment. I understand the attraction,, but it's not for me. But the crazy that started this is watching community college women's lax on a live stream. CooCoo

How are they crazy for watching a juco game on a live stream? People also watch high school games on live streams. Are they crazy too? Oh, and let me guess...If YOU watch a game on live stream, you're NOT crazy because it's your kid or you have a vested interest in the game or some other crap reason. Get a life and worry about your own seedlings, [lacrosse] LI'er.

it could be a bit nuts in the sense that there are dozens of ESPN D1 games that can be streamed. the resolution, the quality of the play, etc. will be much higher. but to each his own ultimately...

Okay, I livestream games when I've got nothing else going on and the time. It's not a crime. I like to see how the "bigs" are doing (my daughter plays on a top 50 team but not top 20) or a team I know her team will play, or a team where one of her friends or former teammates plays. I may or may not watch the whole thing.

Sometimes the camerawork is great and so is the commentary (shoutout to the woman who does Stony Brook, she's great). Sometimes the camerawork is so bad I cannot watch. Best time ever was a few years ago, streaming a CT team and I forget who, but the booth guys had a live mic and started trash talking each other, clueless that it was being broadcast.

Now there is a good reason

If Virginia Tech #20 D1 played Adelphi #1 D2
what would the final score be?

not 36-0

not 36-0[/quote

VA Tech wins easily. They have 3 top 20 losses and Louisville who received votes and is probably 21 or 22. Adelphi is tremendous program but that is a big step up in weight class.

I would suspect not that competitive. The best D3, however, would do well against the best D2. Last year D3 Hamilton beat eventual D2 champ Florida Southern. In fact it was Florida Southern's last loss.

Awesome!!!

17-4

How much wood could a wood chuck chuck if a wood chuck could chuck wood?

LOL I think the point was made!

Yep

Adelphi would beat a team like BC or Gtown I feel.

This is a joke I hope
