 🐦j ' S ...  Hi ! Leacock peeps 

sunny in the  'boro and we have spring - everything, sunny, green and growing

the Kings of Spring, title, was used many years ago, by Inside Lacrosse to announce the beginning of the NCAA Div 1 lacrosse season. Approx 70 teams, playing a mixed schedule of league and non league games.
The ' dance ' is the 16 team field selection [ by committee ], that ends in late May to highlight this knockout tournament for the Div 1 Championship

This season, JHU qualified for the B1G final and lost to Penn State. The Committee opted to rank the JHU Jays as # 8 and bracketed them against Cornell, the Big Red. In the incestuous world of NCCA lacrosse, there are always connections when teams meet.

The JHU mlax, bussed up to Ithaca, NY for Saturday s game vs Cornell.
On the year, both teams were brilliant and peripatetic, w/ four or five losses each.
The game was a lock in, brawl. The final goal in O / T was scored by Hop.
Nine goals and 3 saves, earned the win. What ? 3 saves. JHU s Gelinas stopped 3 shots. Hit posts and high and wides count too as shots.

Congrats to Jays. Making something out of a ' what the heck ' season.

 Connxns. JHU coach, Milliman, left Cornell to be at Homewood. 

At first, I thought ' who will they play next, # 1 Notre D or Jacksonville '
really ....  ??

you got there, that's good enough - how many teams are dying b / c you got the chance

on paper Cornell was favoured w / bigger studs and healthier team overall. But when JHU holds you scoreless for 21 min, the other 39 better be brilliant [ and wasn't ]

let s cheer the moment [ hey, real life lesson for me too !
