RU - St. Johns Lacrosse Game Thread

[Clearscreen25]

4-3 RU early 2nd. Rose having a big game with 3 goals already. Mullins has the other. RU not great on faceoffs to start but has come on strong lately.

 

[Clearscreen25]

Mead makes it 5-3

 

[Clearscreen25]

Divitcos on the fast break 6-3 RU

Is St John's any good?

Is St John's any good?

No.

They were up 3-1 early but we have scored 5 straight and are really dominating right now.

 

[Clearscreen25]

Some sloppy play and it is 6-4 at the half. St. Johns is the reason lacrosse needs a shot clock.

 

[Clearscreen25]

8-5 end of 3

 

[Clearscreen25]

9-5 early 4. Heningburg with the nice wrap around. He has 2 now.

 

[Clearscreen25]

10-5 now after Mullins scores

 

[Clearscreen25]

11-6

Getting outshot 35-26????

 

[Jim_from_RU]

We won 12-8. Should’ve blown away a team like SJU.

Go RU!!!!!!!!! Win all the games expected, and a few you are not!!!!!!! 2-0, baby!!!!! Whoo!!!!!!!

 

[DowntownT_Brown]

I didnt see the game but am suprised we havent found success on man up. Even last year with a very good offense we didnt even seem to be average.

 

[IsItLuck]

The conditions today were pretty lousy, on top of everything.

No, Rutgers outshot St. Johns 35-26.

Okay was hard to tell but visitor stats on top just like scoreline. Thanks!

Based on the stats for the first two games, Schoen is the primary faceoff guy, Did he beat out Francisco or is Francisco injured?

 

[DowntownT_Brown]

Injured, I think.

Game was closer because we did not do well from the faceoff spot. We also had a bunch of sloppy turnovers. SJU moved the ball well and finished decently well.

 

[Bms22]

Hopefully getting the early kinks out because we have a tough Army team next weekend. Blitzed UMass today 18-6. I was hoping this weekend we would have shown more flashes of offense from the first face off but still happy with the W.

B1G looking tough in Week 2. Hopkins up 7-1 on Towson right now and scored a few Power Play goals, OSU blasted Boston U, Michigan and PSU won.

Villanova topped PSU in its opener.

Villanova topped PSU in its opener.

PSU won today vs Hobart. That said if we sleepwalked vs St. John's, PSU sleepwalked like Will Ferrell and John C. Reilly in Step Brothers in their first game vs Nova and the first half of today's game.

 

[DowntownT_Brown]

I dont consider our score today a sleep walk.

 

[bigmatt718]

I dont consider our score today a sleep walk.

I probably should rephrase that. We sleepwalked in the 1st quarter, than woke up afterwards.

 

[DowntownT_Brown]

Understood!

 

[AreYouNUTS]

For both teams...

Thought Heninburg played very well. Under much better control in 1st two games than he was last year. We will need that from him going forward.
