............you can keep your head about you ............   " the words of Rudyard Kipling , Victorian balladeer

Always sounds good , until you are rushing around or running in circles

Yes  , seems to be us to - day
Frustration mounting
lost heads

Settle down

#1 , as in the B1G Champions in lacrosse
First ever B1G title awarded

Somehow the JHU BlueJays found a defence , they've held opponents in the last 2 games to under 3 goals in the last half of the game
The Black and Blue won over OSU by 13 - 6
Thus ,we come to the bad
Yes , the Jays get the automatic qualifier , they have punched their ticket to the ' dance '.
Now , the fun part. The NCAA Selection Committee has figured that the AQ allows poorer teams into the round of 16. The Comm is right. Some AQ s come from easier leagues.
The solution as mentioned previously - take the 4 teams w/ the poorest records as AQ s and have them play in.
This method means 18 teams as announced for qualifying are winnowed down to 16
Ah , you know the number as the ' sweet 16 ' from BB
To - night , the committee broadcasts their 7 AQ s and 11 at - large teams , which are chosen by record and quality of opposition.
At 9 - 6 Hopkins may have had difficulty qualifying this year , the Jays would be a bubble team , sort of in / sort of out
Their quality wins would be OSU and Maryland

We shall see said the Zen Master

Weather : warm , blue sky and gentle breezes
