OK LAX fans. Time for some input here. Scrimmage at Colgate Saturday 2/5 @ 4:30. Anyone know if this is open to the public and does Colgate have an indoor facility of some sort (could be still pretty cold/snowy 2/5)?? A couple years back we had a winter scrimmage @ Colgate with them listed as home team but it was played at Afrims for weather reasons??

First media pools have Vermont #17; UA getting top 20 votes. No other AmEast in top 30 say. AmEast coaches pool have vt#1; brook, UA, umbc all separated by a point.

Marr in an article in the TU said concerned with the offense {No dominant threat.} He felt the returning in-close D and goal tending was strong. Hate to disagree with coach, but what I saw in the fall, both attack & midfield offense was DEEP and proficient. The in-close and two way middies could not stop a nose bleed?? HOPE I'M WRONG about the D and think Scott just throwing smoke screens about the O? He also said he was very please about face-off progress and that would be a continued emphasis winter practice.

Also, curious about brook moving to caa and lax post season ban?

That's all I got. Looking for thoughts/opinions/news on all the above and MORE.

 

 

I got nothing.  Have we done okay against CAA Lacrosse teams over the years?? I would hope and expect we'll continue playing Stony Brooks in Lacrosse.   We've been playing Stony Brook in FB off and on for 50 years so since we are CAA FB that will continue.

Not much we can do about the schedule based on where we live except trying to schedule games at indoor facilities.  Not many are large enough... Maybe somebody will donate 20 - 30 million to build and indoor football and lacrosse facility.  Hasn't there been one in the plan for many years -to the left of the gym?  I may have the area wrong but thought I saw plans a while ago.

The latest plans: a new “tent” going up this spring. Room for an “80”yard field. 

HOW LAME IS THAT?

According to rumor, it was last used at a circus outside Cleveland in 1998.

The cost is 6 million (probably 7). It's budged by the ADept.  It will look like Utica's but, stupidly they are making the field portion ONLY 80 yards.  Which means no indoor games.

It's actually not lame...it's quite nice and will allow competitive indoor track and have offices and lockers.  That said, due to width of the facility, it will be only 80 yards. I hope they widen it.

It's VERY common even at P5's

[Dane96]

Tennis courts are not coming in ours...but this is a sample, based off the pricing for Utica.  This will allow SEFCU to be renovated even better than the current plan that needs to preserve the track. 

[Dane96]

The structure is NO. 2 on the ADept capital investment list, per my understanding.  It will be approx. 136,000sf, 4x bigger than former bubble structure.  Would house synthetic turf field (80% reg football field), NCAA-compliant indoor track, other amenities as space allows and a small ancillary building structure may be included (budget dependent) to house lockers, showers, coaching offices, etc.

They should literally spend the extra cash and go full field.

Man that is an awesome indoor facility.  Can't wait to see it built as well as the PE gym renovation.  D96 is the PE building number 1 on the capital investment list?  Appreciate if you could share.
