I found out some time back that my son told the team who I was on the board, so I had to be really careful, try to make general points and talk about technical issues.

Sorry Coach! those losses can be very hard on the owner.

congrats to you and the team!

I like their coach, met him when he worked at Lafayette, he is in a position to attract a lot of talent

They came a long way in a short time.

QuoteSomething I want to add about Amherst is the lack of substitutions made. This is interesting for a team that goes complete high press to only make 4 subs on a Sunday double-header Elite 8 game..wow. Same for W&L with 5 subs.

In comparison, Midd and Conn both made 10 subs. Depth and fresh legs play a critical role at this stage

Sometimes the substitutions hurt Conn's game, you look at the bench and say WTF they are doing, Amherst has a way of keeping key players in for very long time, remember Oko had to signal to the sideline
that he needed to come out.

Met him last year during the NESCAC finals weekend, nice person.

Sa w a few Dickinson games, the offense is potentially explosive, W&L I have not seen much of this year but remember them from last year playing Tufts, they have some good talents, tend to be patient.

 

QuoteAt the risk of inflaming opinion, The Billiard Table That Is Hitchcock Field suffers similarly.

I guess you have not visited Hitchcock Field this year, among the best grass in NESCAC, they may be positioning for 2026 world cup, hosting a team.

I like to see teams just do enough to get to the next game in a knockout situation, don't overextend and pick up unnecessary injuries. 

QuoteTrinity.  Known for resolute defense

Dude! there is an exception to most statement, relax.

The only feature common among NESCAC teams is resolute defense, the attacks all vary.

Kenyon field looks better than the field Jamaica played USA on last night!

QuoteI suspect the grass surface also will favor Calvin.[/quote

Hamilton's home field is a very nice grass field, they should have no excuse.

Wagner does well recruiting, so they will be fine, I expect Jack the #6 transfer to really come good next year.
