You know who never played lacrosse and did ok? Bill Tierney.

Jon Cooper, the two-time Stanley Cup winning coach with the NHL's Tampa Bay Lightning, didn't play hockey in college, he played lacrosse in college for Hofstra of all places! His coach was Danowski.

I wish we could go back in time and hire Lars Tiffany. Just see what happens. We may still have GG today, who knows? But, guarantee Lars would have brought energy, innovation, & an interesting connection to the community to the hill.

But, here were the relevant records at this juncture

2014-2016
* Tiffany: 36 & 14
* Desko: 36 & 13
* Starsia: 27-19

It wasn't until a year later when Desko tanked.

That said, GG technically has the program headed in the right direction. Good recruiting, hitting the portal, improving record, a playoff win.

The next 2 seasons are crucial.

If final 4s are the Syracuse standard, then we need to make it to the final 4.

Pretty frustrated w the seeming lack of fire from him, dips in the teams emotions during games, lack of in game adjustments, & go to player.

Hopefully he shows some fire this off season & hits the portal hard.

Need more consistency during the season & perhaps a better seed and an easier path to the F4.

This should be shown at least once a week to this coming year's team!!

To me the bigger story of our turnaround is really Pat March's recruiting prowess. Things were pretty grim for years and only started to improve when he stepped on campus.

If you look at our starting attack next year, you have a #1 overall recruit/5 star, a #2 overall recruit/5 star, and a 4 star in Leo w/ a 5 star in Trey Deere coming off the bench. We have a 5 star in goal next year, 2 5 star defensemen, and a starting midfield that is likely 2 5 stars (Thompson and English) and a 4 star in Birtwistle.

I know Gait helps in recruiting but March is our recruiting director (I believe). I also apologize if I screwed up by putting up Birtwistle in the starting lineup but don't sleep on him - 2023 Birtwistle was a cocksman.

Tom Marechek’s son is there with his teammate George Caldroney.. I’m hoping Gait is laying it on thick to both of those two
