This LB-Severn game is like watching paint dry
How bad is Severn? Well, it takes special skill to win 25/27 faceoffs, dunk 9 on the LB 2nd half goalie, and still lose.
Loyola won on the backs of their 1st half goalie (gave up 2) and their top 2 scorers who accounted for 9-10 of their 12 points.
Also explains why the Loyola HC has been giving campus tours to current 2028 and 2029 FOGOs currently enrolled at McDonogh and St. Pauls.
Let me guess, bad goalie play by Severn. Another 3 save performance?
Didn't seem horrible. Gave up 4 in 1st half, 8 in 2nd half.
In a very un-Loyola-like manner (historically speaking), Loyola coaching actually made successful adjustments at halftime (maybe this is where Haus breaks the curse). At the end of the 1st half, Cook started getting free from defenders for well-screened (if predictable) long shots, and Severn close guarded and doubled him in 2nd half, letting the Dons senior Bleach get free for crease shots repeatedly. I think 3 of Bleach's goals in a row were the same play, Severn made no obvious adjustment.
All that said, Severn almost came away with the win, as they should have statistically, winning 90% of FOs.
