Looking at some Tufts box scores:

Conn 2 goals on 2 shots
Brandeis 1 goal on 4 shots
Hamilton 2 goals on 8 shots
Bowdoin 1 goal on 2 shots

IMO they are fine up front as they created plenty of chances. I thought their backs and GK were not as good as they usually are. Lanahan is a beast but he did not have one of his best games and the GK will need to be better. They also will not have that crisp passing on Amherst grass field it just will not roll for them like the carpet.

Do you think home field for Amherst is done deal?  Just based on them getting a bye?  Amherst is a much tougher trip for Trinity than just flying into Boston.

This is what is so frustrating as they do have a lot of talent up front, and they always create plenty of chances. Just for some reason at the end of the day it isn't translating into goals the same way you would expect it to. Should be some great games next weekend that's for sure.

Amherst will be hosting. Trinity TX can go San Antonio-Charlotte-Hartford..2 hrs each flight.

Wash U announcer is awful. He continues to mix up the near post and far post   ???

He's actually excellent...and does post-game interviews.  Did interviews with DePauw coach and player after last night's DePauw game.

Just watching Pats final seconds. Missed the Tufts goal...

Mr.Right

Wash U announcer is like Nyquil for me. That voice puts me right to sleep like a baby.


Tufts absolutely dominating play from what I can tell since I have been watching. 2-2

PaulNewman

MSU needed a 3rd goal and packed in too soon.

PaulNewman

Stunning.

F&M hosting?  Because games are Friday doubt Kenyon will host because of unlikelihood of daytime games on a Friday.  Probably want 5:00 and 7:30 games.  Any chance Tufts hosts since they knocked off team with the bye?

PaulNewman

And the night ends with more PKs.

Mr.Right

Tufts would not host and play so well on the road they will be fine with that.

PaulNewman

About as good of a first 6 PKs you'll ever see.

OK, so I'm gonna guess F&M.  Can't imagine everyone would go to Grand Rapids.
