Positive things about this year's MCLA Tourney

[Sonny]

Let's all help out Sonny to make sure he can continue to improve the quality of the coverage this site provides.

Also after watching the loads put on the server this year I am confident we'll have to go to a two server system next year.

Help Sonny out! A buck or two will help out a lot!

Don't forget Cricket. She is amazing. And her house in the Grand Canyon.

I think running away from Coyotes and Rattlesnakes is what keeps her in such good shape.

I just wanted to thank Dan Morris for not only putting together a great tournament, but also being so supportive of his staff members. For example, take this text message I received from him Saturday night:

"Ben, you will never know when it comes, but my vengeance will be severe."

I mean, you can just feel the love in that sentence. What a guy.

He brought it upon himself... hahaha

Still one of the greatest text messages I have ever seen.

If this sort of banter does not get us a waiting list of people wanting to work the tourney next year nothing will...

Let's not forget a few other nice things- for the staff

AMAZING HOTEL- huge rooms, 42" plasma's in each room, free cocktail hour each evening at 9:30pm... well, whatever the officials left behind

Great wireless connection

From the press box, I would estimate that there were about 450-500 people in attendance. I don't think that admission was charged. There were heaps of BYU fans and a good number of Oregon fans as well. Both were very loud. The rest of the crowd was made up of other tournament teams, their families and locals.

Not sure of the final attendance numbers, but admission was charged.

Pros - Great radio broadcast, Up-to-date scoring on the main page, the photos taken, for the most part evenly-matched games.

Cons - No game schedule on the collegelax.us front page, Corbin smelling funny.

Was curious to see how the field looked for last night's FC Dallas MLS game against Salt Lake. You can watch the video highlights here:

Field looked very nice after 6 lacrosse games in less then 2 days. But you could see the crease areas worn just every so slightly outside the Soccer Penalty Box.

A couple of local soccer fans here complaining this morning about how lacrosse tore up "their soccer fields" last week. I told them lacrosse didn't tear up anything, just moved the sand around a little bit.

Tremendous!! What a great facility to have the MCLA tournament. The grass fields were terrific. I found myself looking for my "ball marker".

I am disappointed that we were unable to stay for championship Saturday. Sonny and Ken sounded great all weekend; thanks for keeping us in the loop.

Again, please let us know when the finals video will be available.

As a fresh new alumni who is already working on staying involved in the league I would just like to take this opportunity to say...

Shotgun/dibs on a spot on the media crew for next year
