I got to watch #49 for Lindenwood pretty closely Saturday night against Michigan. I thought he played hard-hitting, physical defense. Got away with a hold or two I thought, but those things kind of fall into the "if you ain't cheating, you ain't trying". Illegal? yes. cheap? no way.

I wonder if Michigan's attack and offensive middies might not be among the hardest hitters out there on the ride. They have certainly given teams alot of troubles on the clear. Not all the hitting is done by the longsticks.

Texas Tech is pretty stout.

The defense runs:

D 6'2" 210
D 6'2" 225
D 6'3" 215
LSM 6'2" 190. He is under 200 because he runs at the midfield.

I expected to see a little more talk of higher ranked teams.

The better the lacrosse, the less hitting there is. I think we all expect our players to be physical, but if the offense is moving the ball and themselves effectively and players are running through ground balls (and the ball is not on the ground very much), there won't be many hits.

I agree John Paul! It's hard to hit a guy legally, and what would be the point really anyway, if he doesn't have the ball and isn't within 5 yards of a loose ball.
