Can a Canadian be an All American?

Don't keep responding if you don't like my posts. Boy crush? Nope just disgusted by the lack of respect for the sport. You sound like a real tool yourself condoning winning by cheating. I just pointed out that the loser got caught AGAIN!!

boy lover stalker

Brown plays like real dirtbags, parents raising some serious trash, never seen anything like it! Makes the Princeton FOGO look like a saint

So with the Princeton kid making hiimself and his team irrelevant, who you got tonight moving into the most exciting part of the season? Congratulations to all the student athletes who are advancing and setting a good example for the young kids watching. I'm hoping to see Rutgers, Army and Hofstra get in but it seems like a long shot.

Pity that Brown players are such scum! Never seen such dirty play ever!

But they're the Ivy League, how could that be?

Brown is the right color for what they are, disgusting play, dirtiest lacrosse I have ever seen. Brought shame to the most liberal Ivy there is. Typical democrats!

What the [lacrosse] are these guys smoking?

Wow a few teams getting screwed. (Albany Ohio St). Why isnt one of them playing Towson

Good thing you weren't betting on any of that happening!

how is hopkins a #6 seed ?

Because they are good.

They shouldn't even be in the tournament, They are not good at all. Army deserved a spot over them. Rutgers as well. They'll be out first round

4-6 in last 10 is good ?

Because they are good.

Actually, they used to be good. That's why they're in the tourn. Because powers at be want certain teams in the final four. Will do everthing they can to make that happen.

Same with ND, should not be in. Please, don't tell me they (ND) have a couple of injuries. They should have so much depth on that team with all the "athletes" they recruit. Can't one of those "athletes" just step in and replicate what their star attack or middie can do?

How about Albany getting shafted in the first round, so MD can get deeper before they $hit the bed like always?

Whole thing is laughable. That's why attendance was down again last year at the final four.

JHU had wins over 3 tournaments teams. Army had 2, Rutgers had 1. Rutgers lost to JHU. Wins over NJIT, Wagner, VMI etc don't account for much other than making final record look better. Strength of schedule makes the difference for Hopkins. Case can be made for Duke to host Hopkins but Duke has some cupcake wins

Because Penn State only lost 3 times, two of those to #1 Maryland .

I agree, there is no way Hopkins should be in the tournament. Same exact thing happened last year. They really are just not that good.

Duke smokes them by nearly double digits...

Don't bet the house. That's not going to happen.

Duke always gets better as season progresses, that's what makes them great. Their Coach gets the most out of his team. Hopkins on the other hand is getting worse. The look on Petros face during the OSU game was of total disgust and embarrassment. Hopkins will lose by a decent margin.

Hop will win because of the OSU game. It's a huge wake up call

They don't have the talent, too many early recruits didn't produce.

Time will tell, but seriously, I just don't think they are that good. If they lose big, it is time for them to really take a look at what they are doing, because they should be better than they are. Same story last year, but they blamed that on injuries

Is it true that there is not a single game on ESPN today? I see a whole slew of softball playoffs but not a single lacrosse playoff game listed. Is our sport really growing if we can't supplant softball on ESPN U?

all 8 games over the weekend will air live on ESPNU. 573 on fios

Thanks!

LI boy demolishing JHU.

And.... Hop loses by 13 at Home. I guess all those hold backs and double holdbacks they've recruited over the last 4 or 5 years are just not panning out. Their recruiting strategy will keep them in the same situation for years to come, get use to 8-7 seasons, will be the norm. Think UVA. Next team to fall off a cliff after this season is MD.

H is for Hopkins, and H is for horrible. They should have never been in the tournament much less a 6 seed. It will be the same story next year, come on guys either out the best teams in or don't have a tournament. No one cares that Hopkins used to be good, they aren't now

Grad student goalie is declared academically ineligible last night. It's a huge hit if you saw how terrible the goalies were. I guess Hopkins had some integrity, but how the eff does a grad student become ineligible. Must not have even bothers to show up for class.

They shouldn't even be in the tournament, They are not good at all

MD will not win, they choke at the end. Fun to watch

With all these so called all american High school lacrosse players going to Hop and they don't win like they are supposed to its embarrassing. Early recruiting has hurt them IMHO. Oh and by the way Ty Xanders always having his recruits considered top. Sorry something not right over there. Early bloomers aren't always going to be the top kids. Seen it time and times again. And Hop has the most 20yr old freshman lol.

Also sick off Hopkins always on ESPNU. so much good lacrosse give other schools a chance to be on TV.
Early recruiting 8th-9th graders are rearing its ugly head. They are now a middle of the road program.

I think Albany might be the end of the road for the Terps, unless their GK stands on his head again. That's if they get past a feisty Bryant squad. If they don't win it this year, they won't anytime soon. Of course that's been the same scenario with them, since when? 1975.
Have to love UNC going down in flames... Next to hit the scrap heap, ND. MU by 5.

Albany better learn how to clear the ball or they are going to get spanked. Second half of that game was not impressive for the Danes. Lucky they got away with the win, goalie was great though.

So.....How long till Petro is fired? It's past due
