Huge week for the program. Lehigh is ranked #16 and will be coming in with a full squad after getting healthy. Going to be a battle.
RUMLAX Ranked #15 This Week
- Thread starter Caliknight
- Start date
Buckle up...it's gonna be a tough game. Lehigh is good...very good.
Hopefully we play well and get the win...getting to 5-2 with our schedule would be a good start and it would carry some momentum as we head north to Syracuse...
The crowd on Saturday was a nice crowd...hopefully the local fans come out and support the guys on a Tuesday night...frankly if you're a lacrosse fan and you live within a 30 minute drive, really no excuse not to be in the building...weather looks nice as well...which is good for the fans
I'm looking forward to seeing how this plays out...
Getting to the start of the big ten season at 6-3 would be a VERY solid start considering some of the injuries...if they somehow got to 7-2...well that would be an excellent non conference season.
Look around and it's a crazy landscape right now...but one thing is a constant..The teams that are wining are getting GREAT offensive performances and consistent point production from their superstars...and those superstars make the players around them better...period...look at Ament (PSU) and Spencer (Loyola)...those guys have crazy assist numbers...crazy good. Nice players put up points...great players make everyone around them better and get other guys easy looks (some of that is scheme as well)...we need our studs to get to that level fast if we want to get anywhere this year...
With that said, we need a full complete game...the first half on sat was the best we've been...second half the defense and Max kept playing well...the offense went south...tomorrow need a compete effort...
Tomorrow night is a huge game...

A decent number of NJ athletes on Lehigh roster .... Bernardsville (2), Moorestown (2), Randolph, Chatham, Warren, Westfield, Mt. Laurel, Old Tappan.
Their D is very good and their faceoff guy is going to be a problem. Assume that Harryman is out. That kid can't catch a break.
They don't play often in stadiums like ours. Gotta like the homefield advantage HPSS provides.

I'm sorry guys but this is a MUST WIN, period, and that's all I want to hear from the experts!!! NO MORE EXCUSES!! This is a game that was a "lock" of a W coming into the season so JUST WIN BABY!!!
I only consider must wins games where if you don't win, the season is over. Sorry, I can't classify this as such. This game was never a lock. They have the best team they have maybe ever had. They were ranked highly pre-season. Anyone who penciled this in as a definite win doesn't know what they are talking about.
It's a game we need to win. A game if we don't it will mean we need to steal one from somewhere, like Cuse. It's not a must win or the season is over game.
The season is really two seasons. OOC and B1G. I will evaluate the OOC part after we are done playing it.
All that said, I like our chances. But it's going to be an absolute battle. Be there if you can.

OK so we should just chalk it up as another program that got the upper hand on us and accept the loss if that’s the case.
(I hope you know I enjoy playing “devils advocate” with you over here lol)
Well, that's sort of what sports are all about. When you lose, you tip your hat, learn from it, move on. Win or lose vs. Princeton, that is exactly what would have happened.
Every game is it's own beast. Just enjoy it for what it is. Continuously looking at the macro is a fools errand.
