Anyone watch today's game between top seeded Hopkins and second seeded Viriginia? It was an excellant game, with Virginia coming out on top, 9-7 I believe.

As a lacrosse goalie myself (among the other positions I play biggrin: ), I have to say Tillman Johnson is among the best I've ever seen, second to Princeton's goalie of a few years ago (shit.. can't remember his name.. he was the coach's sun..). His aerobatic style and intensity is amazing, and very fun to watch.

I was rooting for Syracuse all the way, as I personally know a longstick middie on the team (went to the same HS as me), but if anyone else had to win I wanted it to be Virginia.

I do have to say though, Hopkins did deserve a win. They won almost every ground ball and showed intensity and hustle through every quarter. If Christmas hadn't scored that 9th goal in the 4th then there might be a different national champion right now.. Hopkins seemed to do everything but beat the Virginia defense and goalie.

oOo:
The Toronto Rock have lost about 3 games in the past 50 years, and they play against Canadian/American Pro. teams.

LOL indoor lacrosse is gay dude, outdoor lacrosse is so much better. Long Island Lizards are the best team.

Lacrosse Rocks!!! Played 4 years of College (Small Div.3 School in New England) and two years in High School. Indoor Lacrosse is fun too, off-season I used to do some recreational leagues, really fun stuff and great exercise. I was cool cause we I used to play with some of the semi-pros from the Boston Blazers. Met the Paul and Gary Gait a few times, really cool guys.

Unfortunately I blew out my ACL in a Mountain Biking accident several years ago and never got it fixed, so my Lacrosse days are over (Actually just about any sport that requires running I can't play).

I usually watch the Lacrosse finals, but this year I haven't watched them.
