Penn state was in the final 4 a few years ago. Penn State not a top 10-15 team the last two years...8-9 this year, i looked at their record...best win, 1goal against an overrated Hopkins team...like someone said before,all well and good you play a tough schedule, you need to win some of them, Penn State lost to every good team they played, UMD by 11 goals also...Just like upstart Michigan, i have a hard time seeing a team in the top ten with multi 10+ goal game loses I don't recall anyone saying that Penn State should be ranked in the Top 10 this year. What was said is: Penn State is a one of the Top 10 - 15 Programs. They are one of the 10 - 15 programs that have finished the season ranked in the Top 20 in each of the past 5 - 7 years. Some teams win a game over a ranked team every now and then, some teams are ranked in the top 20 every now and then. The best programs consistantly finish the season ranked in the Top 20. There are about 15 Programs that are always in the mix and PSU is one of them. Thats the point, without their name, they would not have been ranked #18 last year with a 10-10 record...so the ranked in the top 20 the last 5-7 year argument wouldnt work...now this year 8-9 def not top 20 team, so last 2 years not top 20 team, still top 10-15 program? next year when outside top 20, thats 3 years, still top 10-15 program? how far out do you go out before not top 10-15 program...quick question, psu was ranked pretty high to start the last two years no? Not sure what you have against PSU. What programs do you think should be considered stronger? What program has done better over the past 5 - 7 years? Because of the limited number of quality teams you can not use a teams record as an accurate barometer to gauge how strong they are. Who cares? You two should let it go. This person made the stand that they are a top 15 team, some years yes, some years no. I’m sure his/her kid goes there or will be going there, you will not convince them otherwise. It’s a proud parent thing. Decent team, great, good luck. Let’s move on, tons of D1 games and match ups to talk about. All the sudden NW may be the one to watch. Could not let it go... and no, my daughters do not go to PSU and younger one will not be attending. Just can't stand BS... Penn State is definitely one of the Top 15 Programs. 2019 maybe a down year and they still have an RPI Rank of "18"... Thats pretty darn good. Since 2010 here is where they finished the season ranked in the Coaches Poll: 2010 - 17 2011 - 15 2012 - 11 2013 - 6 2014 - 13 2015 - 5 2016 - 4 - - Made it to Final Four 2017 - 3 - - Made it to Final Four 2018 - 18 2019 - 25 Find us more than 15 programs that have done better than that. Not for one or two years, the Top Programs are in the Top 20 every pretty much every year. Would love to hear which schools have a stronger Program. We all know the usual suspects... MD, UNC, NU, BC, Syracuse, Virginia, ND, Princeton, Penn, Stony Brook, Florida... JMU ? What other schools have a stronger program? Maybe PSU will fall off who knows but looking at the results from recent years I just don't see more than 12 - 15 better programs.

There are approximately 10 teams that have made the tournament at least 8 of the past 10 years (2010 through 2019). Then you have SBU, PSU, Duke, Towson, Navy, JMU, Stanford, UMass that have made the tournament 7 of the past 10 years, assuming I counted correctly quickly going through the brackets.
Penn State, James Madison and Duke have multiple post-season appearances for many years prior to 2010, so it's fair to include them in a list of teams that are historically top 10-15, or at the very least perennial top 20 programs.
A few surprises in this year's bracket in my opinion - expected UNC or BC to get the #1 seed after NW convincingly beat Maryland, and #8 seed seems a bit high for Michigan. ND has wins over seeded teams and seems more deserving in spite of the Duke loss, but their extremely weak out of conference schedule combined with the Duke loss probably hurt them.

JMU given a terrible spot, Maryland given one of the toughest first round matchups a number 1 seed has gotten, UNC also given a very difficult path. BC being given a path into the final four where they will not be challenged. Also looks like they put USC in a great spot to get deep into the tourney so they can show that even those west coast teams are catching up after lasts years west coast champion got beat up.Will be interesting to see if their plan works

Seems to me the committee wants a new champion to try and convince us that lacrosse is spreading. JMU given a terrible spot, Maryland given one of the toughest first round matchups a number 1 seed has gotten, UNC also given a very difficult path.

Also looks like they put USC in a great spot to get deep into the tourney so they can show that even those west coast teams are catching up after lasts years west coast champion got beat up.Will be interesting to see if their plan works What is so tough about Maryland's bracket? They are the Number 1 seed and they have the easiest path to the Final Four.

“Are you all proud of yourselves, the original topic was what lower ranked schools would want Halfpenny or O'leary coach for them, but of course it has, once again deteriorated into "my daughters school is better than yours" by a bunch of parents that never played the game themselves. I agree that many woman leave those schools listed well rounded and become very successful, but the implication that a woman that has attended William and Mary, or yes, even Old Dominion, will not achieve the same level of success is idiotic. College success, like any endeavor, has a direct linkage to how much effort you put into it. Just like your boast of excelled success by woman that attend you precious list of highly over rated and grossly overpriced institution of higher learning, I am sure there are as many tales of less lofty success. Just as I am sure there are many tales of both from schools you shun. In short ,stop being so snobby.”
You really are dense . Why bring up the original topic if you are not going to comment on it , are you proud of yourself for doing the same exact thing you accuse them of. If you don’t think there is a difference in education from attending a top ranked academic school compared to a lower ranked academic school you are just clueless . It’s like playing lacrosse for a lower ranked team compared to a top ranked team , there is a difference . Not one person thinks that you cannot be successful coming out of any school or even not going to school but you bunch of anti higher education, bitter , panties in a bunch group keep arguing that some fictitious poster put that out there. All else being equal in terms of success I would prefer my kid gets a great education and know that is more often accomplished at a higher ranked academic school. Exactly. Just don't expect the haters to understand it. They will tell you that an education from Notre Dame, Georgetown or Boston College is no better than some random school . They would also have us all believe that there is no difference between playing for teams 40 and below and teams 10 and above.

Some thoughts and predictions...
On the D1 side I think the brackets were fair; not sure why folks think Maryland got a tough draw. In my mind Stony Brook vs James Madison is a great first round match. I think Stony Brook wins. I’ll take USC, Penn, Notre Dame, Florida, Navy, Loyola and Dartmouth.
On the D3 side, which is a great tournament, the NESCAC again dominated with six teams chosen. It could have been more but at-large bids scarce in a large field with so many automatic bids going to lesser clubs. No predictions for Round 1 games as they are outlier teams. I’ll wait to Round 2.
D2, which has a small field, should be Lemoyne all the way, beating Florida Southern.

Michigan getting the 8 seed is the only thing that I question. Could have gone to Loyola or Notre Dame.

From USlaceroosmagazine.com
"Numbers don’t tell the whole picture with Virginia. The Cavaliers rank in the top 30 nationally in just one statistical category – they’re 26th in clearing percentage. UVA also only has one player ranked inside the top 20 nationally for individual stats. Avery Shoemaker is 12th in free-position percentage.
But the Cavaliers are the No. 6 seed for the NCAA tournament because they played the hardest schedule in the country. Their No. 1 strength of schedule had them not only facing the rest of the ACC, the top conference in the nation, but also paired them up out of conference against Maryland, Princeton, Loyola, Navy, James Madison and Penn State, all top-20 RPI teams. UVA won five of those six games."
It is a Team Game. Just like last year, the TEAM that plays the best Team Defense including goalie play and attack re-defining will win the National Championship.

Love this ranking method. By winning their conference, Georgetown knocked Duke out of the tournament. Duke could have still been selected over Stanford but the committee had other plans. Michigan was handed a gift. Not sure why Michigan is the 8 seed. Exciting times, no undefeated teams and although Maryland, Boston College and North Carolina are likely to make the Final Four they are all beatable. Northwestern, Syracuse, Virginia, Princeton, Notre Dame, Loyola, Stony Brook, Florida all have a shot at the final four. USC, Penn, Dartmouth and JMU are all very good as well. Maryland is my pick because they have the best defense. Hold a team to two or three goals below their season average and its a good bet that you will win the game.

I agree that many woman leave those schools listed well rounded and become very successful, but the implication that a woman that has attended William and Mary, or yes, even Old Dominion, will not achieve the same level of success is idiotic. College success, like any endeavor, has a direct linkage to how much effort you put into it. Just like your boast of excelled success by woman that attend you precious list of highly over rated and grossly overpriced institution of higher learning, I am sure there are as many tales of less lofty success. Just as I am sure there are many tales of both from schools you shun. In short ,stop being so snobby.”
You really are dense . Why bring up the original topic if you are not going to comment on it , are you proud of yourself for doing the same exact thing you accuse them of. If you don’t think there is a difference in education from attending a top ranked academic school compared to a lower ranked academic school you are just clueless . It’s like playing lacrosse for a lower ranked team compared to a top ranked team , there is a difference . Not one person thinks that you cannot be successful coming out of any school or even not going to school but you bunch of anti higher education, bitter , panties in a bunch group keep arguing that some fictitious poster put that out there. All else being equal in terms of success I would prefer my kid gets a great education and know that is more often accomplished at a higher ranked academic school. Exactly. Just don't expect the haters to understand it. They will tell you that an education from Notre Dame, Georgetown or Boston College is no better than some random school . They would also have us all believe that there is no difference between playing for teams 40 and below and teams 10 and above. Yeah Send your kid to one of those top schools so they can come out Like AOC or Elizabeth Warren Or don’t send them to get a good education so they can turn out like Charles Manson . See what I did there , I took a very tiny sampling of those who don’t go to college and applied it to all sort of like you did in your example . Chuck Shumer Harvard Barack Obama Harvard Hillary Clinton Yale Eric Holder columbia Susan Rice Stanford Maxine Waters UCLA would you want the same people that produced these people teaching your kid? I wouldn't. All top touted colleges that I'm sure you would brag to your friends about. you can have them. I would rather my kid be a good person, but that's just me, to you I guess money and notoriety are more important. thats why you brag on a Lacrosse board, Poor you, so shallow We have a winner. The dumbest most ignorant post I a have ever read on this site. Yup and it's yours

Lets not bring national politics into this lacrosse board... the goal of 99% of the parents who begin this club lacrosse journey is for their daughter to play lacrosse in college.. ideally the "best " college for their daughter.. what is the "Best College".. it will certainly be different for each one of our children..
Lets talk about College lacrosse. lets talk smack.. but about lacrosse . The tournament started :30 minutes ago.. lets continue "Help" each other get our kids recruited by sharing accumulated knowledge and experiences..
rant over... GO B.C.!

Stony Brook at Maryland, 12 p.m.
Denver at Michigan, 12 p.m.
Navy at Virginia, 12 p.m.
Florida at North Carolina, 1 p.m.
Colorado at Boston College, 1 p.m.
Loyola at Princeton, 1 p.m.
Notre Dame at Northwestern, 2 p.m.
Georgetown at Syracuse, 3 p.m.
I don't think Stony Brook has enough punch offensively to score enough on a tough Maryland defense. Virginia too athletic for Navy. If Florida can't cut down on the yellow cards they have no chance vs UNC. Colorado goalie had 15 saves vs Dartmouth i think she will need at least that in order for the Buff's to have a chance. Loyola Vs Princeton coin toss. Northwestern. Georgetown has really come on strong but I think the run ends today.

The Stony Brook/JMU game was tough to watch with all the SBU flopping going on. The worst was the phantom dangerous follow through where the stick didn't come anywhere close the SBU defender. She grabbed her head like she'd been shot. Erased a goal for JMU - pitiful.

Love this ranking method. By winning their conference, Georgetown knocked Duke out of the tournament. Duke could have still been selected over Stanford but the committee had other plans. Michigan was handed a gift. Not sure why Michigan is the 8 seed. Exciting times, no undefeated teams and although Maryland, Boston College and North Carolina are likely to make the Final Four they are all beatable. Northwestern, Syracuse, Virginia, Princeton, Notre Dame, Loyola, Stony Brook, Florida all have a shot at the final four. USC, Penn, Dartmouth and JMU are all very good as well. Maryland is my pick because they have the best defense. Hold a team to two or three goals below their season average and its a good bet that you will win the game. Most recent Rankings: Great stuff.... No favoritism. http://laxbytes.com/2019/binwomstats/rating01.php

It pays to play a tough schedule. If you win some of those tough game you are rewarded. Only two of the Top 10 did do not have a Top 10 SOS. Only two of the Top 10 do not have a Top 10 RPI. http://laxbytes.com/2019/binwomstats/rating01.phpIf your daughter is lucky enough to be playing tomorrow good luck to her.

D3 has a great tournament with some great games. My picks:
Middlebury, William Smith, Ill Wesleyan, Franklin & Marshall, Gettysburg, Denison, Wesleyan, Washington & Lee, Salisbury, Colorado College, Mount Union, Amherst, Tufts, TCNJ, St John Fisher and York.
Safe travels to those attending games.

Refs paid by Maryland or what?
Maryland blasts a girl in the face on follow through of shot...no call...goal counts
Stony Brook returns the favor at the other end...no goal,,,yellow card issued.
