Haven’t checked lately but we were down 8-1 early. BC scored 7 goals in about 7.5 minutes.

As I alluded to on the other lax thread, this game should not be scheduled unless we have a better team. we're picked 9th in the PL poll for a reason. lost 20-2. no Belichick magic with the daughter. not much of a change in our fortunes since she arrived
good D.3 teams would have put up a better fight

BC was one of the tops in the US last year.

Photos from the lax game...I was in town for the Women's Beanpot (which was fantastic BTW!) so thought I shoot the lax game too! www.foley-photography.com/Lacrosse/College-Lacrosse/2017-2018-Season/Holy-Cross-at-Boston-College

The ACC is a grind so they could pick up two or three in conference losses with Cuse, UNC, and Virginia always solid.

BC is absolutely loaded as you say....but my second alma mater (Stony Brook University, loaded with local girls, preseason #2 nationally) will give them all they can handle at the championships (at Stony Brook) late this year. So I can take my revenge then.

Yeah, but no way BC beats us in men's lacrosse this year.

Recruiting? Training? Anyone know?

Recruiting? Training? Anyone know? No idea but for the last 10 years we have been pretty awful (1 winning record and a couple of PL runs).
I'm thinking it is like a lot of our sports wherein we have a team and that team plays games but actual winning programs are as rare as hen's teeth lately. I think it is part of our deliberate identity and marketing that we field a lot of D-1 teams for our size - winning is not necessarily part of that constructed identity.

Just my opinion, but I think Pine hired a name to make splash in the headlines, rather than finding the very best coach. Wesleyan was a combined 10-20 in Belichick's two years at the school. A 10-20 D3 coach is ready to lead a D1 program?

What was Wesleyan's record before and after she was the coach? I think it's always good to get a read on the strength of the program

6-9, 5-10, and 5-10 in the three years prior. 5-9 the year after.
