Syracuse vs Maryland National Championship Game Thread... (WLAX)

[KellySyracuse]

would love a turnover here, stupid mistakes by SU

 

[OrangeXtreme]

4-7. Syracuse's Liz Harbeson with a yellow card. A second later, Maryland's Beth Glaros scores her second of the day.

 

[OrangeXtreme]

4-8. Cummings again for MD.

5:24 left in half.

 

[OrangeXtreme]

Hitting someone in the throat isn't a yellow card? Sure.

 

[OrangeXtreme]

5-8. Bridget Daley.

 

[KellySyracuse]

keeping it close considering they've been getting their asses kicked around the field

This is unwatchable. Why do I torture myself?

 

[KellySyracuse]

Woot, back within 2!!!

 

[OrangeXtreme]

6-8. Katie Webster !!

you have to erase how the men's game is played from your mind. which would be a welcome relief I think after this last round of disappointment

 

[OrangeXtreme]

6-9. Glaros for MD.

Under 1:00 left.

I'm trying. But faceoffs, or whatever they call that, are even bigger in this sport. It's almost a guaranteed goal if you win the faceoff.

Halftime.

Syracuse 6, Maryland 9.

Hard to create turnovers. If you look at a girl funny, it's a penalty.

Or maybe that's just me.

Fouls Syracuse 20, Maryland 13.

Ya think.

true, but lax women have been pretty good at the draw this year. there is more finesse to it then the men's game

Back to the hospital to visit my mom. I was having dinner in a. Sports bar for 1st period. Watch ESPN will keep freezing there but I'll try.

I don't get the rules at all but at least for me anyway is that neither team is playing a stall game like Northwestern did against SU the last time they were in the championship game.

You can check the stick, but you can't contact the body ... and a head shot is a 2:00 yellow card.

They should wear helmets.

SU can't beat Maryland. Winner of national title was decided weeks ago.

 

[OrangeXtreme]

I hope Svyerud paid for that flight out of his own pocket.

Syracuse Lacrosse‏@cnylacrosse 39s
Syracuse has made its usual goalie switch to open the second half. Kelsey Richardson in there now.

seems that way, which would lend proof that they have a problem with Gait

 

[OrangeXtreme]

7-9. Murray to open the 2nd half.
