[QUOTE="Mark Lufkin, post: 1043175"]
With only a few exceptions I feel like the pace of play and timer on has been called consistently this year. This policy needs to continue into the playoffs. Hobart started to sit on the ball a little in the second half against SU and the refs quickly adjusted. The junk that Maryland pulled a few years ago in the playoffs is hopefully a thing of the past.

Even though Duke likely lost the ACC playoff game to SU because they didn't sit on it at the end it was nice that they had the stones to keep pushing the ball. It took a miraculous effort from Cuse to pull it off. Notre Dame did the same thing in the ACC title game. They could have also been burned by aggressive but I felt good lacrosse play. Dom made a great save ( he misses and we are down 2) and as a result Kevin Rice had a good shot at forcing overtime. That is the style of lacrosse that needs to be encouraged.

This has been a great season and I really hope that we don't end it because a team chooses to manipulate the game by slowing it down.
