US Lacrosse Way too early preseason rankings:

1. Boston College
2. Maryland
3. North Carolina
4. Florida
5. Princeton
6. Penn
7. Virginia Tech
8.Towson
9. Syracuse
10. James Madison
11. Northwestern
12. Loyola
13. Stanford
14. Stony Brook
15. Navy
16. Notre Dame
17. Duke
18. Penn State
19. Georgetown
20. Dartmouth

I think they have SBU too high. Navy too low. Dartmouth too low. Virginia Tech too high.


JMU also too high.


Winning the National Championship goes a long way. They are always solid, they always play a very difficult schedule and they do it with no hype.

No problem with JMU.

Not sure Va Tech will be top 10 at seasons end.

Even at 14 Stony Brook is overrated .

Dartmouth will finish higher than 20.

SB with their cupcake schedule will be in the top 10. They have to be since they still aren't a destination school. They need to be top 10 to stay relevant. JS will coach them up, they will make the tournament and bow out early again

JMU is 7? They beat UNC and UNC has 2 losses already. Virginia had a good win against Cuse but lets not get carried away jumping up 5 spots.


Worst of all the polls.

JMU
BC
Virginia

All belong in the Top 4.

Northwestern too high.

Penn State not Top 20.

Cornell , Denver, Virginia Tech should not be ranked.





I can guarantee you that JMU and Virginia will not be top 10 in polls come May, BC the only one of the three that a chance of being top 5


BC will not be in the top 5 at end of year either as soon as they start laying their ACC schedule and not the cupcake non conference games they will be exposed.


Take a look at the last two posts... Can't wait to hear what these two guys predict for 2019.

Fall Ball is upon us! Good luck to all.

With regard to the ranking above: Stony Brook too high. Northwestern too low. Virginia Tech too high. Dartmouth too low. Penn State has a chance to jump back into the top 10. USC also too low.

Boston college is certainly the front runner but all of the top 5 plus Northwestern have a shot.

Seriously , why do you think NW has a legit shot, they lost something like 7 of their top players to graduation. They are going to win less games than last year.

I agree that Northwestern should be ranked higher. Northwestern will finish the year ranked ahead of James Madison, Syracuse, Towson, Virginia Tech and Penn.

Agreed. There is some really bad lacrosse being played at some DI programs. I was very surprised by some of the fall ball I've seen. I expected better; however, my daughter plays for a mid-level team. Some teams we played are much, much better. But some look like JV teams.

I have not seen the list. Can you post it? I couldn't find it on IL.

That said, I am a little surprised that none of the six returning starters from the championship game did not receive any attention from IL. JMU returns three starting Defenders, two Attackers and their Goalie.

In total, Eight of the 15 players who saw action in the championship are back. That was a very strong Senior group, I guess IL feels that the seniors did all of the heavy lifting. Maybe it motivates them to prove them wrong.

Go Dukes !

Be happy if you have a healthy daughter who has the opportunity to compete. Hopefully she enjoys playing. Not every player can go to Maryland or BC but if your daughter has benefited in some way from this sport be thankful. Maybe she has made some great friends, maybe the sport helped her get into a school she otherwise would not have, maybe she is receiving scholarship money, maybe she has developed more confidence and learned valuable life lessons. Do not pay attention to the negative nonsense written on this site or the BS babbled on the sidelines. Focus on the positive. If you are on this site I assume you have a daughter who plays... be happy, be thankful and enjoy the ride... trust me, it goes by way too fast.

Good luck to all.

What is the saying? Something about glass houses?

Talk about looking great until it matters.... It is repeated over and over on this site how certain teams under achieve every year... the two programs that are attacked most often are probably Notre Dame and Florida (haters gonna hate). The reality is that for the past several years the most under achieving team "when it matters" has been Stony Brook.

Talk about a team that "always looks great until it matters" Take a look at their track record when it matters.... Abysmal.

Actual results are what actually matter... here are Stony Brook's

2014: 16 - 3 going into the tournament. Lost to Syracuse in round of 16.

2015: 18 - 1 going into the tournament. Lost to Princeton in round of 16.

2016: 15 - 3 going into the tournament. Lost to Syracuse in round of 16.

2017: 18 - 1 going into the tournament. Lost to Maryland in round of 8.

2018: 19 - 0 going into the tournament. Lost to Boston College in round of 8.

My kids are done so have no money in this BUT love the game.Thats pretty good for a little ol suny school! Bet you wish your kid made different choice. Lots of teams don't make it that far and they are there year after year now. Pretty sure that they had some tough losses in those games OT, 1 Goal games.
As for the games yesterday Syracuse beat Florida pretty good and Stony Brook beat Syracuse.
It is fall ball.
Fun to watch

You miss the entire point.

Why would you bet that I wish my kid made a different choice?

SBU people are funny, they pound their chest every chance they get, boast of their gaudy regular season record and carry on about other schools and teams,

They then turn around and say well it's pretty good for a SUNY school.

Be happy wherever your kid plays or played,

Not little, over 17,000 undergraduate students. Other state schools doing well, perhaps you have heard of Maryland, UNC and Florida. UNC is most impressive from my view as they have almost zero in state kids and do not benefit from the in state tuition incentive like the others. Huge advantage for SB, MD and more recently for FL as they can spread that scholarship money to attract the top out of state kids with the built in discount for large amount of in state talent. Will be interesting to see if SB can start to bring in big recruits from out of state.

Point is SB is a "team" full of kids that were told they weren't good enough by all the perennial powerhouses and they seem to do just fine.

No, that was not the point.

By the way, Stony Brook is a "perennial powerhouse" as The Seawolves have finished the season ranked in the Top 20 in each of the past six season (in 2012 they were just outside the Top 20 (listed as others receiving votes). That fact puts Stony Brook in the elite category with maybe 10 - 12 other programs. Off the top of my head I would bet:

Maryland
North Carolina
Northwestern
Boston College
Princeton
Florida
Syracuse
Virginia
Penn

Penn State?
Duke?
Notre Dame?

Thats pretty good company, to be recognized in the Top 20 six times in six years is very impressive. So to say "SB is a "team" full of kids that were told they weren't good enough by all the perennial powerhouses" is really not accurate. Stony Brook is a perennial powerhouse. Maybe it would be more accurate to say "many of the schools the players or their parents wanted the players to go do did not make an offer" IDK. My guess is that many of those Stony Brook players were offered at other schools but the offers were not attractive enough for the parent or players.

Stony Brook has been given a tremendous amount of pres and hype by Inside Lacrosse and Lacrosse Magazine over the past 5 - 7 years. As much if not more than any other program.

Why? They get talented players but not near the talent that UNC, or Maryland gets year after year and honestly many of the players they have landed did not exactly have the reputation of being very coachable.
