Tough break on both guys, assume they got hurt at practice this week. Kennedy should be bumped down to close with Fernandez back.

Checking in. Waiting is not fun... Looking forward to a great game. I believe SU will win in the end,, but I believe Army does not give in until the last whistle (the way any game should be played.

Shameless plug from a veteran (albeit, an Air Force veteran): I am glad SU plays the academies (and not just lacrosse). These kids are the next generation of leaders protecting and defending our country. Except on the field/court/gridiron, these kids deserve our support, whether we agree with what the government is doing. These kids agree to serve the Congress and follow the orders of the President, regardless of who is in any of the offices, and they do it so we don't have to.

Stepping off my soapbox...Let's go, ORANGE!

Kights 1-0. Army showing great patience in moving the ball and in off-ball movement. I think they have to play the deliberate slow down game, they do not appear lightening quick.

Trimboli missed teh score...

 

[HtownOrange]

SU is Man up 30 seconds

 

[orange79]

Not looking terribly sharp here. Can't get beat to the end line on a shot when you're a man up.

Nice shot Curry

 

[HtownOrange]

Still not a fan of changing personnel when you have a fast break. Even though we had to bring the ball back out, keep the pressure up and do not let them opponent get set!

I will take this goal, and tie the game, though.

 

[orange79]

Curry with a seeing-eye laser to the short side! 1-1

 

[Laxwizard22]

What are we doing offball? Helluva game so far from Porter

 

[HtownOrange]

BUTTERMORE! SU 2-1

 

[orange79]

Buttermore! 2-1

 

[bjred]

Nice

Not enough. ARMY D should get some of that credit, to be fair. They are aggressive and play tight on the O.

 

[HtownOrange]

Kights tie it up, 2-2

 

[HtownOrange]

And we get it right back. Triumboli!

 

[JeremyCuse]

Trimboli goes low and scores

 

[SkyTopBus44]

Nice call agree with Powell. Change planes

 

[orange79]

Trimboli goes low and scores

He listened to you!

 

[bjred]

Ouch, run right into the trap. Three guys on you so there's someone open somewhere
