Respectfully, I think that's one of the nuances that makes this game great. I also don't recall the refs getting a single "closest to the ball" possession call wrong today, & I've watched the game twice in full. I also think they got every out-of-bounds call correct.  They did miss a crease violation on one of Army's goals but also twice allowed SU defenders to plow through/run over a pick which is illegal, just as it is in basketball. Some pushes, both loose ball & with possession, were questionable but that's a normal, every game occurrence.

One thing I'm worried about going forward is Mariano's antics. He a very passionate, emotional player who derives motivation from beating his defender but I wish he'd concentrate on celebrating with teammates instead of taunting & "chirping" with the opponent. He could've & probably should've been flagged for pointing at the GK in the penalty box following a goal vs Siena & was getting a staredown by the ref while gesturing at the Army defender following his game tying goal. Hopefully it doesn't bite him/us at the wrong time.
