BOTC - US Lacrosse Community Forum Forums NORTHEAST LACROSSE BOTC MAIN FORUM (LI, CT, WC) 2018-2019 Women's DI, II & III College Lacrosse Season

Starts with the coach. Fish rots from the head down. Selfish Thug play will ultimately be the downfall of SB.

Where you from?

Poster was talking about USC not SB with the thug ball...please keep up...

Also go on NCAA.com and you will see SB is ranked top 10 in LEAST amount of fouls per game. We were talking about USC. But Don't let the facts get in the way of your story. People like you are real fun and most likely the parent of average

So you are obviously an SB fan. Do you think, objectively, that KO should win the Tewaaraton over Apuzzo? If so, could you make the argument, please. The counter argument above for Apuzzo looks very strong.

Actual stats
Least amount of fouls per game nationally
Maryland 3
Stony Brook 7
BC 8
Conversely
Florida 106
Towson 111
Syracuse 94
Usc 56
JMU 96

Lets see point totals when SB plays Binghamton, Appuzzo did not play second half and could have doubled her point output in their 14-2 win. Any chance KO sits out second half of any of their blow-outs?

Not sure why it matters but from LI. Had some time on my hands and was able to get the game where I was. It was an ugly game all around with a lot of 8 meter shots thru out but even when the game was essentially over the fouling continued and some of the fouls were over the top.Its girls lacrosse do they really need to hurt someone.

And to state the obvious: from which club do most of the thugs emerge? <drumroll> YJ. I'm not the guy who posts "thug ball" all the time but this seems like a nice time for him to join the greek chorus.

Against a very weak Umass Lowell team. 13-4 w 5 min left 1st half. From there KO gets 2 more goals and 3 [ChillLaxin] with 1 goal and 2 [ChillLaxin] coming in second half.

2 minutes left in a 15-3 game against Denver, look who scores, KO. stat padder.

Up 15-2 against Michigan, who scores? you got it.

up 15-8 against a clearly inferior Delaware team with 10 minutes left. Have to keep padding. 5 more goals for Seawolves. Murphy, Murphy, KO, TO from Murphy, KO w [ChillLaxin]. 20-8.

It's really kind of pathetic. Apuzzo is so clearly the choice, particularly given the way this team, coach and players pad the stats. Forget that even with that, Apuzzo's overall all stats are far better anyway.

Funny. Apparently you can't use word asists (if u spell w two s's).

You also kind of have to lay that at the feet of JS. If I were affiliated with SB, in a blowout situation I would expect him to sub out the starters and let the others have a go, but nooooooo, never gonna happen with him. There's no calling off the dogs even when it's clear the prey is dead.

Yup. All of the above. They are a very unlikable bunch.

YJ's tell their coaches to do the exact same thing. Worst sports in the game
Wait until SB has to be seeded. The committee will stick it to them. Just wait

Stony Brook will be given the path of least resistance . NCAA wants them in the Final Four and ultimately The Championship.

This is true! A coach with any character, would not focus on stats, but rather show good sportsmanship. JS is out for himself. He is still pissed that KO was cut from Team USA and is desperately trying to get her the Tewaaraton...unfortunately she is NOT the best player. Selfish and childish! Grow up!!

JS took care of KO not being on the USA Team by becoming the [ChillLaxin] coach.

This. They want butts in the seats. Home cooking coming up. What a joke. They will get cupcake path to final 4, you watch.

don't agree. they want a Maryland to win.

Hate to say this but, wouldn't it be a shame if one or two of the SB girls goes out in 2nd half of a blowout win trying to get 10 goals.

those stats don't go with the hate now we will move on to schedule again.

Please compare the teams that KO is playing. She should have more CTs and GBs considering the competition she is playing, her stats scream to me that she doesnt even ride.

Anything for the Stats! A shame! Desperate grasp

Perhaps this is an apples and oranges deal but looks like you go from game average to season totals for fouls? Florida not averaging 111 per game...

It's the team rank .

After reading this went and looked SB played 32 players in both the last two games 32!!!! also by the iPad address one of the posters keeps responding to themselves lololol

Who is the loser that keeps responding to their own posts while insinuating he's like to see an injury?

It's a team rank based on fouls per game

Let's look with Maryland,SB and BC vs current top10 RPI
Maryland 3-1
SB 2-0
BC 1-0
Let's not make it like BC plays this great schedule other than ACC It's littered with mediocrity. Teams have no say on conference Once again let's not let the facts get in the way of your story.

So, how is the 2017 recruiting class from Long Island making out so far this season? How are the girls on some of the top teams doing? Any surprises in terms of the girls that are excelling, the ones getting playing time or surprises regarding the ones that are seeing much of the field? Just curious on everyone's thoughts.

Really? and yet the same girls keep scoring, and late in blowouts. Your nonsense post does nothing to refute the facts above. iPad address. what a stunad. are you trying to say IP address, dummy?

I'd like to comment on scoring on an open goal, which seems to be a taboo in lacrosse only. No one seems to mind when an open goal is scored in hockey, on any level. Do fights begin after a hockey player scores a goal? Same with other sports without nets. It's an open net. I watched a D3 playoff game several years back and the team down pulled their goalie-and the leading team scored four goals. The coach of the losing team lost her mind and to this day I laugh when I think about it. Should you not try to score into an open net?

Sorry for the late posting but taking a break from San Antonio and my 'Nova Wildcats National Championship. No worries the celebration will continue in moments!!

WOW BC isn't being shown any love and there isn't anything there from13 -25 there just aren't any teams worthy of jumping up so these teams look like they could lose out and would still hold onto their rankings

It is going to be an interesting tournament. Most of the teams in the top 20 have a shot at getting to the final eight and even the final four. There are definitely going to be some upsets early which will open the door for some of these teams.

Outside the Top 20. Notre Dame has a win over Syracuse a one goal loss to North Carolina and a two goal loss to Boston College. The Irish can compete but not sure they will make it to the final eight. Denver has been very inconsistent don't think they will be a factor. Cornell did not compete with Penn or Syracuse. An upset vs Stony Brook would be huge for the Big Red but most likely only way in is through Ivy play. High Point has a win over Notre Dame but I just can't see them competing with the top teams. Hopkins is the best of this group (21-25) and has proven that they can compete. They beat a very good Loyola team and have four one goal losses to Penn, Georgetown, Northwestern and Penn State in OT.

Splitting hairs but the rankings are still a bit off IMHO.

Boston College should be 1.
Stony Brook 2.
Loyola 8.
Towson 9.
Northwestern 10.
13 - 18 mix em all up.
Princeton 19.
Penn State 20.

Looking forward to the rest of the season and the tournament.

From the games I have watched, I think it is very mixed. Some girls are seeing a lot of playing time and actually having an impact while others havent played at all. Very interesting to see how it all plays out after you see how early the girls commit and where they end up going.

Some of these commits never came off the field and now they can't seem to get on the field. Its a huge adjustment to their pschy.That's one of the reasons why only about 50% of them will play all four years.

I think the upperclassman there have something to do with it...
