BOTC - US Lacrosse Community Forum Forums LACROSSE LIBRARY RULES & REGULATIONS NCAA Face Off Rule Changes

One rule that I think the NCAA should have changed is how they keep stats on ground balls. I think ground balls obtained during a faceoff (by fogo or even wing) should be kept separate from ground balls obtained during normal play. The opportunities for wings and fogos to get GBs is so much greater under the current rule. It makes it harder to evaluate the stats associated with regular play hussle vs. having a loose ball opportunity given to them directly several times a game.

Face off rules are final. No more carrying ball in back of the stick. Insidelacrosse has the article

Good. Finally...Play the game the way it's suppose to be played.

[quote=Anonymous]At least no one is talking about getting rid of it anymore. Here is a link to the great Lacrosse Magazine article on the last time they DID eliminate it how disappointing it was.

For now. MY guess is two years it will be eliminated to speed up the game more

The rules committee got it right on the face off changes. The majority of the best fogo's will still be the best.

Please tell me you are not that stupid. If you knew anything about lacrosse, you would that was tried many years ago and failed miserably! I suspect you are just trying to be a di**. Mission accomplished!
