WLAX 2015

Misread the bracket; the game will be in Syracuse but Penn will be designated the home team. Penn's RPI is 16, Albany 19. Women have 28 tournament teams from 107 total. (Men have 18 from 69)

I can't think of any at-large bids.

 

Edit: UA press release confirms "This is the first at-large bid for a UAlbany program in the Division I ranks. It is the first time the America East has had two teams in the NCAA Tournament since 2008"

Maybe it should be an overnight bus trip. Syracuse on Friday then on to Cornell on Saturday!

I am not going to try to explain this (too much) to the less degenerative types, but there are gambling lines for the women's game today!

 

Money Line: (Straight up, who wins.)

UAlbany -110 (Bet $110 to win $100)

UPenn -120 (Bet $120 to win $100, making UPenn a very slight (in gambling terms, the slightest, actually) favorite.

 

Point spreads: (Only two that I could find.)

UPenn -1.5: +155

UAlbany +1.5: -185

 

Over/Under (for combined number of goals scored): 18.5

 

If I could have gotten UAlbany with the -1.5 instead of the +1.5, I would have jumped on it!

UA is not the only school with streaming issues...

Not sure why we don't put more pressure on penn's offense.... we just collapse into the middle.

Overtime, 10-10. A UAlbany lacrosse team is overdue to win one of these tight battles.

[uofalbany]

Anyone see UA's little underhand lob pass to her teammate that was surrounding by four Penn players?

Man that was a head scratcher..... as was most of the overtime.

[uofalbany]

Should have put that pressure on Penn's offense the entire game. Shouldn't have waited until overtime.
