| Saint John's vs SB 3/22 1pm | |

| Their strength is clearly in their attack- keegan, cernuto, | |
| mccardle. weve beaten the johnnies before, but this may be the | |
| first time that its expected they will win, at least according | |
| to rankings. they did beat us two years ago on our home field. | |
| mccardle does it all and makes this offense work. i have seen | |
| them play a few times live. im pretty sure they have a freshman | |
| goalie, as do we. | |
| note that their three losses are to pretty good teams- yale, | |
| cuse, and drexel. the johnnies just beat GT and then Hofstra in | |
| OT. Apparently one of their star attackmen, cernuto, was out | |
| against hofstra or at least came out of the game and didnt | |
| return. | |
| we had a blip against Manhattan, surrendering 5 in the first Q. | |
| then our defense bucked up in the second half, picking up every | |
| GB and making saves. we also won a lot of faceoffs. so we kept | |
| it to a respectable 8. | |
| id like to take a moment to talk about how good our attack has | |
| been playing- rooney has been unstoppable, with both hands. he | |
| drives from x, shoots inside, from the wing, feeds, draws | |
| slides. and runs mid. schultz has become so much more of a | |
| versatile attackman that it lets our entire offense shift in and | |
| out of the crease, creating movement and then picks and | |
| confusion for the defense. schultz has a real knack for GBs in | |
| traffic. and easty is easty. | |
| 52' with possible rain right before the faceoff. GO SB | |

| No rain please...looking like it could hit the 60's now. | |
| Can't wait for this game...gotta find a way with this one, | |
| especially since they just bet Hofstra | |

| im wondering... will we see rooney at mid or attack? both? | |
| will corpo run with the second mids? who will start in cage, | |
| johnstone? and on close, will we see harris, judge, both? | |
| its a little hard to see #s from the webcast, so despite the | |
| fact that i watch the games, i cant exactly tell who is there! | |
| Easty and Rogers makes it easy. Out of the back of the helmet- | |
| lettuce. | |

| 8-5 halftime with Rogers sticking one wth 4 seconds left. We | |
| have been on the other side of that goal so many times. | |
| SJU goalie is a good player. Lots of saves early on and two | |
| posts we hit. The Johnnies played well early but too many flags | |
| have doomed them so far. | |
| Defense kept the potent SJU attack to only 5 in the first half, | |
| by way of not playing too much defense. Credit Rowe on that | |
| too. | |
| Luca has quicky become a good defenseman for us. Also having a | |
| good day is Rowe, Schultz (has lacrosse IQ of someone with way | |
| more games under his belt), Vasallo, Johnstone. Coach really | |
| mixed up the mids, Corpo got runs with the first line. GO SB | |

| so i thought we played really well for most of the game and then | |
| SJU shut the door in the 4th with 5 straight goals. they are a | |
| good team. we almost pulled a nice upset today. good game to | |
| watch. GO SB | |

| Rough 4th for SBU. No shots at all, and lots of turnovers. | |
| Never seen them go an entire 15 minutes without a shot before!? | |
| But - team put together good 3 quarters (as opposed to 2 in | |
| previous games), so they are improving! Just need a full game. | |

| I think Rodgers and Hughes were spent in that fourth quarter | |
| (they both play every offensive possession). Both had some | |
| uncharacteristic turnovers in the fourth. | |
| Rowe came off the field a bit gimpy early in the second half and | |
| seemed to struggle the rest of the way. Hope he is OK. | |
| Johnstone's save % doesn't reflect it, but I thought he played | |
| well. He made some real tough saves. | |
| Curry and Lucatuorto both look pretty good with a long pole in | |
| their hands. 3 ground balls each. A couple penalties each, but I | |
| really like their games. | |
| Overall, I'm disappointed they didn't win, but still impressed | |
| with the team | |
