Scrimmages

[Caliknight]

The guys had two scrimmages yesterday. The first was against Brown where they played the starters and two deep. Brown got completely run over. Final score was 19-4 according to the most official scoresheet that was distributed. A lot of assisted goals which was good to see.

The second scrimmage was against Bryant where the starters/two deep sat and exclusively other players. Bryant won the game by a few but I wouldn't read into that. It should also be noted that we had 9 guys in street clothes who are expected to start or play significant minutes.

Great day for the program.

Nice write up in Inside Lacrosse. See Bryant's coach's comments at the end.

Liked the comment about Aiello using brute force. Have felt in the past season or two we've lacked that brute force. Just someone that puts the shoulder down and overpowers the other guy for a goal.

Did the 9 starters/two-deep players play in the Brown game and sit against Bryant? Or did they sit both games?

They sat both games. I was mistaken. It was actually 10. All 10 are guys you will either see starting or playing significant roles. Two of our starting Dmids were out was Colin Kelly and Colin Kurdyla. They will play massive roles provided good health.

If we owned the middle of the field against Brown with the players we did have suit up, it would have been a lot worse with our full roster.

Silver lining is our young players are getting a lot of action. Some of them redshirted last year due to injury like Sommer, or he would have had a lot more experience.

Injuries are never an excuse, but we had more last year than I can ever remember. It stunted the growth of you the younger guys who had to sit out but it is what it is. Good to see a number of them out there now.
