US Lacrosse Community Forum Forums NORTHEAST LACROSSE BOTC MAIN FORUM (LI, CT, WC) 2016 Women's College Lacrosse Season

why is this on a college thread?

With the new rules coming in and recruiting season about to begin. What Is the consensus on the impact to the volume of coaches out on the trail this summer.

Kylie is a heck of an athlete. Should not hold it against her that she is "just plays attack". You can put her on midfield and she'd still be a beast on both sides of the field. Heck, put her on defense and she'd still be an All American. Also, we always have to read about SB's weak schedule. Yes, they have a few softer teams but they're against teams in their Conference. They played Florida, USC, NW, Hopkins, Towson, Jacksonville.....and Maryland. Only a handful of teams at the most can make an argument that their schedule is tougher. And we all agree they're aren't too many teams in the country that can ever sniff at the winning the title......SB is one of them and will certainty be in the mix next year. She should have won the award. Other girls are great.....but none had a better individual performance than Kylie. Not trying to make any SB/YJ hater into a lover. Go ahead and keep hating. But to think anybody other than Kylie should have won last night, is just a hater and will keep coming up with formulas and or slanders against a girl they pretend to know in order to make their case. She should have won it but we'll all get over it. Years from now fans will remember her not winning it rather than the girl that won it. Next year will be fun.

She has a killer instinct but the skillset required for Middies is 1000x more

Just the running alone would disqualify most of the best attack players out there

She is a great player but she also plays a position where coaches hide players

look on the IWLCA website at the college coaches attending for example the New England Cup next weekend - Not so many D1...

My kid played for the YJ and I am a SB supporter. If you think Kylie would be a greta midfielder you are just completely delusional! She is a great player. Feeder/scorer. If she would be that good why doesn't JS use her in other areas?

There will be less volume of coaches this summer. Some schools are so far ahead of these new rules. Even schools that wait to commit players have 2019 classes committed

Maybe he will next year with CM coming back but why mess with perfection. She is the D1 Attacker of the year.

The hide players tells me you are really ignorant of college lacrosse, its not PAL. The best offensive players in the game and in the games history play that position .I would say some of them could have been great middies but you never want to take them off the field so they play attack.

You can tell how bad KO was robbed by the over the top reactions and all of the people of MD nation trying to defend the choice for the T Award. Not just the fans but all the players and former players and former MD T Award winners feel the need to take to social media trying to justify it........pretty much says it all. Never, ever in the history of the Award have we ever seen anything like this.

You aren't hiding the greats don't get confused but where at the college level do coaches STILL hide players in lopsided games? Answer is on Attack. With rosters of 30 or more there are still tons of girls that need to be hidden

So for my 2020 daughter, this summer iwlca circuit doesn't seem that intense at all. Maybe is will heat up in the fall for the 2020's but it looks like for now the coaches are staying at their own camps.

Wrong! Many people were up in arms that Kayla Traenor didn't win it! She checked alotmore boxes than KO. This isn't something unusual. Not many attackers have won this award, especially ones that lost in the quarter finals.

Yale coach?

some action in the College Coaches ranks --

U Mich. hires Hannah Nielsen

Bucknell makes a change (horrible season too much to over look??)

Yale coach rumored to be moving on.. just rumor don't go crazy

Villanova coach going nowhere much to many peoples dismay..

Schools like Monmouth don't pay which makes it tough to stay. She is following her husband to his new job which has to pay better.. Tough to live in the East on $40k or more

surprised at how many 2x winners. they don't spread it around do they?

Hofstra will see movement...

Why spread it around? If someone is good enough to win it two times in a row then let it be. It's dumb to think just because someone won it already, but are still the best the following year they shouldn't get it again.

More top teams and more T winners would be good in growing the sport

Wish I could see all these silly posts from US Lacrosse about the womans team stop. The team is a joke. When you have to open US Lacrosse magazine and see Kelly Rabil, who hasn't done crap in years, while players like KO are cut, makes the whole thing a farce. Barf!

Kelly Rabil can still run rings around that girl. Plus she's very pretty and that counts for a lot- however you feel about that intellectually it's a fact. That team is stock piled with speed and athleticism and just runs opponents into the ground historically. They have Tumulo and Traynor for the flashy plays so all set with that..

Pretty?? Ewww, and she's not the only one who doesn't deserve to be on the team!

Oh well just give Coach Fried a call! Sure he needs some good advice from a major expert like you!! Add some value, knock yourself out..

New rules,
1- Only the 6 mid-fielders allowed between the restraining lines during draw
2- if shot is taken before, or at whistle, goal or save counts
3- (most important in IMHO) free movement on minor fouls, all players allowed to move but ball must be still with 2 meter bubble, if more than 3 fouls occurs in transition, before ball crosses offensive restraining line, 1st offense warning, second offense 1 minuet penalty ( the Joe Spallina rule )
4- after 4th yellow 2 minuet unreleasable (Joe Spallina rule 2.0)
