Men’s Lacrosse Travels to No. 20 Lehigh For Saturday’s Opener
- Thread starter LaxDadd
- Start date
Saw Michigan and PSU were winning and the Terps were destroying Richmond. Wonder how Hopkins will do at Denver.
Nice win! No shortage of things to clean up.
Very good win on the road. Obviously sloppy play and silly turnovers needs to be cleaned up but the D was very solid, faceoffs were very good, and you can see the athleticism we have all over the field.
You could see the offense is new and guys aren’t as comfortable as they will be. Big win on the road to start the season.

Granted, I was unable to watch the game, but the stats say we were only 8-20 on FOs [IN EDIT - final stats say 9-21]
Regardless, tremendous top 20 road win to start the season.

Good road win vs a team expected to be in the thick of things come Tourney time. Now we get to clean up things vs LIU at home.
My takeaways (as a washed up club lax bro) from being at the game:
1) man it was cold. says 32 degrees but it felt like 22. I was trying to keep the stats/notes on my phone but honestly was too cold to keep taking my gloves off
2) our SSDMs completely shut down their dodgers, even when brought behind the cage. 13 and 26 were just stonewalling guys.
3) Stoller started out rusty with some missed outlet passes and a few shots he probably would say he should save, but he made some amazing saves in the 3rd.
4) Kelly has a cannon. His last goal looked like it was at least 15 yards out. Offense needs time to gel. Lot of empty possessions, but its game 1 with a young team and suboptimal playing conditions
5) #12 on Lehigh had what looked like the goal of game in the 2nd Quarter. Looked like a on the run submarine shot through traffic.
Shoutout to Bob (last name?) for welcoming me to their group. I live in the area so just decided to go to the game by myself since Rutgers was in town. The group was very nice and even invited me to future tailgates. Not sure if any of them are on this board, but they definitely live up to the Rutgers family name.

Just touched down in San Diego. Swore I wasn’t go to check this board or the score and just watch the replay. But of course as soon as I landed that plan ended. Nice scrolling down to see the scores.
looks like SSDMs is back to a strength?
And OSU, all that money for almost nothing.

FOs started slow, got better during and fell back in the latter portion of the game. Shade under 45% shows it needs work but not a crisis.
SSDMs played well and got a goal. Not '22 caliber (yet) but a definite positive .
Goal is to be 50%. Lehigh guys legit. One of the better guys we will see along with Armys. It’s a good sign we were closed to that.
Only OSU lost out of the B1G teams. Michigan held Marquette to ONE goal. Is their defense world class or does Marquette just suck?
