Does anyone have a shot at BC this year?

I think it's a bit too early to really ask this yet. Most teams have only played a handful of games so far.

We really don't know what to expect out of UCONN, UNH, URI or BU right now.

Also, while we (NU) have had an up and down season so far, we have shown that we can play with teams like FSU, UCSB, and Chapman. We just haven't been able to do it for an entire game yet. Being a team that lost a lot of our leadership to graduation, I think we've been struggling to find an identity. And that as the season continues on, we will continue to get better. NU/BC is the last game of the year for both teams.

the Griz are looking forward to our first trip to the PCLL... thanks in advance to Northeastern and New Hampshire for hosting, see you guys this weekend.

That is great that the Griz' are coming to New England. Only in the MCLA can you get match-ups like this. Great stuff. Truly the best lacrosse league in that sense.

Having just played BC and Northeastern back to back, I can say that both are high caliber teams and when they play each other it will be a great game to watch. Both teams move the ball really well on the offensive end. BC is really good at working the back side and feeding the crease. NU has some crafty attackmen and some hard shooters as well. We haven't seen UNH yet but looking at their score against NU it looks like the playoffs will be exciting.

by B2 on Thu Apr 10, 2008 11:23 am

Having seen all teams play (and some vs. common opponents) I see BC as the clear #1 with UNH and NU a bit lower. I know that doesn't mean a thing once they meet. Just some observations for now. NU has not come together as a team yet, but I think the same can be said for every team in the league.

Boston University - 9
Northeastern - 7

Stonehill 10
URI 9

Great game. 1 or 2 goal game for most of the way, and Stonehill never led until the game winner.

Stunned by the NU/BU score. Is NU banged up or not as good this year?

by **Dan Warren** on Sat Apr 12, 2008 10:35 am

Nice win for BU, the D1 side of the PCLL seems real tight this year.

as for the D2 side I see that BSC beat Maine. I have yet to see any stats for BSC this year, does anyone know who their guys are? Who is in net? I know that we have a pretty decent group of alumni heading to the 24 Cup game this Tuesday night at Stonehill. Should be a good time

Great game by both teams. NU led 5-2 at the half. The BU defense was stifling, led by goalie Russ Porter, not allowing a goal in the last 26 minutes of the game. It was a hard-fought and physical game, and certainly makes the playoff picture a little more interesting.
