To HofstraHall, HU should be guaranteed a NIT bid because it was the #1 seed in the CAAT. Automatic bids go to colleges in that situation that do not win their conference tournament.

HU is now #85 on the KenPom rankings. There are too many mid-major programs like Monmouth, Wichita State and the A10 teams that do not win their tournament in front of HU. I cannot see a NCAAT at large bid for HU.

Why would the NIT give a home game to a program that does not have a consistent large home attendance? The majority of NIT games are on weekday nights when the NCAAT games are not scheduled. In the past few seasons, HU's largest attendance has been on Saturday and Sunday afternoons. I would be very ...

To Stuball888, Good Luck with your surgery. I wish you a Speedy recovery.

Evan, 10 players on the field: 1 goalie, 3 defense, 3 attack, and 3 midfield. The game that lacrosse is most similar to is basketball. Fast breaks, zone or man to man defense, forcing play to the weak hand side, double teaming on a slide, etc. If you look in for about 1/3rd of a game, you would prob...

Evan, thanks for the reply. I was not aware that you did not follow lacrosse as much as you do basketball. I am a great admirer of your statistical knowledge.

Wow! 40th to 8th in two weeks. Evan, has there ever been such a rapid increase in two weeks in any of the Lax Polls?

Echo what Polito has written. WRHU coverage is a very professional and so much better than other colleges.

We all have been waiting and hoping for numerous seasons. We have seen poor performances and embarrassments by players, administrators, and coaches. It has taken so long to shake off the disappointments. I wish all the team members, coaches, staff, administrators, and fans good luck in Baltimore. Br...

JG=CAA POY! Wow, what a finish. Onto payback CofC on Saturday Afternoon. Some of these HU games have the such swings. Tonight's UNCW game reminded me of the W&M game at the Mack where their only lead over HU was at the end of the game.

After one half, all the stats go to UNCW. In my opinion. HU looks slower and not as intense. Maybe the difficult travel from NY to NC took its toll. Hoping for a turn around in the second half.

So how many of you HU fans say that WRHU does not clearly reach your area via the FM radio. Now there are a options via the internet and cell phones. I wonder how many other colleges get so many men's and women's sports covered by this many options. The WRHU staff does a great job. I agree that they...

All these new polls are great, but remember it is only February. The preseason Lax community did not think very much of HU's chances in 2016 with a 40th place ranking. Let's get through a few games first. How many poor April and May performances have we all seen over many Lax seasons? Just win the n...

Stuball888, the BB game is on ASN. It is on locally on SNY. According to the listings, the CofC game is a delayed broadcast that begins at 5:00pm on Saturday. The Lax game is on the new internet based Lax Sports Network. The upcoming Lax games with Georgetown and Ohio State are also on this network....

To Stuball888, Good luck, I hope you have an easy recovery.

The Newsday headline tells about a blown 20 point lead for HU and a 1st place victory for UNCW. Four field goals and shooting 18% in the second half will not win many CAA games. Do you think this performance encourages the LI sports fan to want to attend one of the remaining three home games? How do...

I have not been this excited for a regular season CAA game in a long long time. I hope the HU community comes out. I really believe this is an important step for the rest of the regular season. You must win your home league games to position yourself to do well in the CAAT with the most amount of re...

Polito, I agree with you 100%. Make your own story, winning takes care of everything. Banners, rings, NCAAT, NIT, and CAA Championships are the primary focus and last forever. All the other things we all have been wanting for such a long time take care of themselves so much easier. To quote Al Davis...

Jojogunne, the Rutgers scrimmage now is listed at 1:15 on Saturday Afternoon on the GOHOFSTRA website.

ZMAN3, I agree with what you are saying, something is missing. Maybe it is the lack of a true student section to get the arena excited. I fondly remember the students in costumes, Speedos, bodysuits, makeup, etc. distracting opponents during foul shots. The HU Midnight Madness crowd in the fall lead...
