Lafayette vs SB 2/18 6pm
By: Chairman of the Board Date: February 16, 2014, 10:50 am
---------------------------------------------------------
The Leopards open their season against SB. LC will host patriot
rival colgate a few days after this game.
last year they opened up their season by stunning gtown- not
sure if thats ever happened before. then they went on a skid
all year and couldnt score. they struggled and that is an
understatement.
last year they scored on us from midfield. most of their team
returns. theyre actually a lot like SB in that its a very young
team. should be a good game. i dont really know much about
lafayette. i think they graduated one pole, stearns.
if SB is going to compete, i think they cant give up 40+ shots
for the game. andreassi had a big game last year and we will
need him back for tuesday. game video is on the web. GO SB

brutal early home schedule for the wolves. the weather is just a
killer this year. it sucks because it probably means 300-600
less fans at the game

Curious if their will be any lineup changes tonight. Was
Shaughnessy hurt? Surprised he didn't start game one.
Would be nice to see Andreassi and Sichenzia back in action.
Pretty sure the starting attack played the entire game last
week.

Dogs beat Cats. Tough night for LC. They really couldnt hit
the cage yet still scored 10. They looked a lot like us last
Friday. Except we won a lot more faceoffs against Marist. The
Leopards were in this game for just under a half before it broke
open.
Especially in the first half- we played a lot of transition and
scored there and on EMO. Very proud of the offense tonight. 12
assists on 18 goals, so we are moving the ball well. Easty is
so sneaky on the low crease. Also 25/32 SOG. LC was a dismal
16/40. We dominated GBs and FOs. 23 turnovers is a bit high
but- we runned and gunned and also we emptied the bench.
Clearing wasnt spectacular; dont let the # fool you, its even
worse than it shows- there were a few that we threw away right
after we crossed the line and got credit. And a few outlet
passes werent great but might have connected. By the same
token, there were at least two EMO goals that we scored on
second chance. But im proud of the boys and EMO looked great.
They rode well and created those chances. Btw Easty had 3 EMO
goals. 8)
We looked aggressive on defense and on riding, pressing out to
the box and LC isnt the most threatening team we will see but
this was a good night for us. Almost everyone got on the field
and the total was held to 5 before the garbage time started.
Our defense deserves a lot of credit for that.
Kyle Rowe is a gamechanger for us. If we win big games, it will
be on him. The combo of him and Lindsay with Zorn and Harris (i
even saw the Judge on the wing) will do well for us.
Easty hits nearly everything, what an inside shooter. Boxla
really pays off. He took 8 shots, 7 on cage, 6 scores. One
incredible behind the back highlight shot too. Great to see
Sichenzia back, he is one of my favorite players for us. And
Schultz- again showing the wing dodge- shows how versatile he is
with three assists.
Tonight was a big positive for us but still some wrinkles to
shake out. Id like to see the poles move the ball on the fast
break unless absolutely uncontested. Also when breaking, its
unacceptable at this level to hang the stick. You *have* to
know that. Even i know that! :o 8) Good job though Seawolves
and dare i say it... but we looked tonight like... Albany???
Any takers?
It will take a tall order to beat Duke, but, if we are going to
do it, its going to be the team we saw tonight.

I'm pumped. There's a lot of really good young talent on this
team. A lot people seem to be calling for Nagle's head, but I
think he's got the program going in the right direction.
