Lil' Cluck's schedule just got a bit bonkers, so we will view Thursday's game at the watch party at the Grain Exchange on STAR campus.

Hopefully, we'll win the CAA tournament and host a play-in game.

I dunno. Not Thursday. Maybe Saturday (hope there’s a game). Is it safe to go to a college campus these days?

From Inside Lacrosse website:

Delaware: This is their show. Delaware has won the last two CAA Tournament championships and has NCAA Tournament experience unlike other teams. Obviously some of the personnel has changed, but it’s created a high standard in Newark. It’s tough to find an attackman pair with as much chemistry as JP Ward and Mike Robinson, as well.

Fairfield: There is something special about being that first group to break through. The Stags are in the CAA Tournament for the first time since 2016, and that’s the kind of excitement that can’t be bottled up by any other program. Watch Julian Radossich play; he’s only a freshman, but he’s going to knock the ball loose.

Damn near had a heart attack. My plans to visit Towson are a “go”.

For a org that calls itself Lacrosse TV you might think they would provide a view of the shot clock. Commentators referred to it a few times and never gave the actual time. Tsk, tsk.

You should have tuned in to WVUD Sports Stream 3. UDan and his partner, Ethan, called a great game.

I was flipping back between the Big Ten and Big East tourneys and the sad sack production of the CAA. Night and day. I was getting a headache trying to focus on the terrible camera work. Worlds apart, never mind the piss poor quality of the commentators. 😱 Michigan upsets Hopkins and Nova upsets Denver.
