And so the madness has begun........

[NUlaxN17]

As someone who has seen NU play about half of their games this season, today didn't really surprise me. I'm a little bit biased obviously, but all season they've been spreading the points out and the entire bench runs very deep. It's this among other things that make them such a threat. There are 3rd string guys that are just as good as the first string guys. Congrats to them... and thanks for not completely screwing up my bracket!

UGA and UCSB tied after one...interesting!

Would love to hear what's goin on in that game...someone...anyone...OAKS?!?!!

[OAKS]

UCSB is playing a controlled offense, and has more time of possession, but they look to be matched up pretty well.

[CATLAX MAN]

What happened with Georgia's goal? UCSB put it in their own net?

[OAKS]

UGA had it on offense, made a bad pass that was intercepted by a short-stick defender about 5 yards away from the goal on GLE, turned around, started to run up field, then decided to pass it to the goalie. By the time he made the pass, the guy he was originally guarding caught up, and he passed it low between the goalie's legs.

[CATLAX MAN]

3 goals for UCSB's Jack Miller already. Go Gauchos!

[OAKS]

He's been about the only guy to beat his man and get past the UGA defense in a settled situation.

Latest goal by Stratton was a fast break

[OAKS]

UCSB is way ahead in possession time. They seem to be fairly even talent-wise though, UCSB is just executing a more methodical game plan.

UCSB's goalie coming up with some clutch saves, combined with a poor shot selection is keeping UGA out of this when UGA does get possession.

dtrain34, do you like apples? How do you like dem apples?

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

Sonoma is terrible! GOD! Garbage....UMD is the truth! What are they feeding those kids?! If Cito didn't go nuts, that game would have been like 10-3.

AAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH....BC, no, no. I can't believe it. Not BC.....tell me, what is the best way to prepare crow? BBQ? Stew?

I can't believe BC won.......I stand horribly corrected. Who finished 3rd in the Pioneer League, they might have gotten really, really screwed by not being in the tournament....Tell me where to send the money for my Pioneer League t-shirt to wear around in shame.

2007, the year the Pioneer League arrived. With a lot of noise too. WOW.

I really cannot believe BC won.......I will not doubt again. I will have to ask for forgiveness this week for ever going against the church in the first place.

So really, if the Lindenwood area and Texas ever get there lives together, then there truly will be parity across the nation. Good things.

Honestly, congrats to both teams. It is very hard to win a tournament game. This washed up old veteran is impressed.

sohotrightnow has lost his damn mind....always the instigator with his good friends.

He is truly the most diabolical hater I have ever known

"We played down to their level." Is the west coast that stuck on them selves or what? They need to accept the fact that sooner or later the rest of club lacrosse across the country is catching up, and this is exactly where this program needs to be by the way.

[dtrain34]

Peanut, how many conversations are you having with yourself?

Who "claimed" that you played down to anyone's level...and what program are you talking about being where they need to be? UofA, and most certainly Sonoma, couldn't play on the level with either of the other teams mentioned here.

Not me...let me guess, sohotrightnow? Typical

Settle down by the way. I dug my own grave with talking ish, and was proved wrong by the two teams victories today. Pioneer league came up today. But it is two opening round victories, one thing at a time, take it easy.
