Maryland with a excellent win, the team to beat. FLA next week, preview of Memorial Day
Anyone that knows the history of Gait knows the freelance style of play that made hie who he is.... that hurt today, sloppy passing and bad decisions, great players that need structure. In need of a goalie with set feet.
What happened to Louisville..... still 7-1 but a loss to duke looks bad.
UNC in trouble without Maggie, need to recruit better, early recruiting is a bad here. '17 a long way off
NU and SB---- wanted NU to win but neither a real threat. SB over achieved last year Nu still on a down slope someone had to win
Still believe in ND
and you doubted Umass
Agree with all of that. Except for 1) Maryland and 2) Florida, there seems to be a rash of mediocrity this season. Towson looking good, JMU down, Hofstra down (but really young, look out next year), Louisville looking better finally, Loyola-who knows?, USC-who knows?, NU-again, who knows?, Elon (yes I said it) surprising a little, Michigan-still waiting, Army-won a couple against weak competition, but still in first year, Duke-mystery, UNC-consistently inconsistent, Penn State-winning but giving heart attacks. I know the Carter kid. Fantastic on and off the field.
You say mediocrity... I say parity. So many teams to choose from. When you get quality kids that get offers from smaller schools for twice the money than the traditional powerhouses offer this is what happens. There are very good kids on almost every roster. the Florida's' and Maryland's will always get the top kids, but now very good players have an opportunity to go someplace and play, not cheerlead from the sidelines for four years and watch the same 16 girls rotate in and out. SB was the shinning example of this last year but now there are more like Elon, and Army. Because of this girls now have a better chance to get the degrees they really want and still play
