Inside Lacrosse Podcasts

Fresh off of a lopsided win over Hopkins, Terry & Nick start by discussing who they think has a realistic shot to beat Maryland (spoiler: they won on Thursday night) and then dive into the weekend's action, examining Harvard's win over Princeton, Connor Theriault's brick wall performance for Brown vs. Cornell, Navy's upset of Army, BU winning the Patriot League, Rutgers coming back vs. Penn State and more.

It’s RIVALRY WEEK, and D-Fly & Dixie are here to get you prepped for an incredible weekend of college lacrosse action. Outside of the sport’s best rivalry games, some of the top tilts are in the Ivy League this week. In particular, a sizzling Brown Bears team heads to Ithaca to face a hungry Cornell team looking to bounce back.

Brown head coach, Mike Daly, joins the guys in this week’s interview. They discuss his team’s season, what has been working in Brown’s consecutive Top 10 wins, the success of the Ivy League in 2022, Brown’s unique curriculum, making the transition from DIII to DI for players, his role on the NCAA committee, Providence eats, his love of NASCAR and much more.

In addition to the game previews, D-Fly & Dixie discuss Georgetown’s win over Loyola, the RPI and the surprising thorn in Jacksonville’s rosy season, Penn State’s struggles, the pandemic’s inequality, BU’s uber-red uniforms, living in the moment and several other topics as always.

There's a new No. 1! Christopher Newport is the top team in DIII after dispatching Salisbury. Recapping and previewing the week, plus new Fantasy Contests and why the DIII Bracket could look different than you expect.

With 17 days to go until Selection Sunday, the 2022 season is reaching its crescendo. ILWomen's Alyssa Murray Cometti and Halley Griggs catch  up on the last month's worth of action and spotlight what to look for as we head into May.

There are key games up and down the schedule in every conference. The highlight of the weekend is a Top 10 battle in the Big Ten between No. 9 Ohio State and No. 1 Maryland. To set the table for that game, Dixie sits down with Buckeyes head coach, Nick Myers. You want to hear this interview.

In addition to the previews, they discuss midweek games - including big wins for Duke and Cornell, the unheralded phenomenon known as Logan Wisnauskas, the added disadvantage to the visitor when game times are adjusted, the pandemic effect on Hopkins Lacrosse culture and much, much more.

Cooper Perkins is relatively new to box lacrosse, but the San Diego Seals' play-by-play announcer loves the indoor version of the game that he played outside growing up and he is diving deep. Perkins has created Lax Metrics, a website where he analyzes existing box score information and has created interesting new statistics to provide a deeper analytical view of the players in the National Lacrosse League. Perkins joins host Stephen Stamp this week to share the genesis, the goals and the methods of Lax Metrics in a wide-ranging and interesting conversation that is sure to help even veteran box lacrosse folks gain a deeper understanding of the sport. 

The Jacksonville Dolphins are off to a 10-2 start and in line for the No. 1 seed in the SoCon Tournament, and much of the credit for this year's ascent goes to assistant coaches Chris Perzinski and Tyler Granelli. Peet Poillon is traveling this week, so Terry Foy fills in, joining Matt Bocklet to talk with the North Florida duo.

The boys are back to kick off Holy Week by discussing Maryland's dispatching of Rutgers on Sunday night (and Kevin Brown joins from Maryland Stadium to discuss), diving into Jacksonville's win over Richmond (and they take a quick detour to Upstate New York), unpacking what Brown's upset of Penn means in the Ivy League, figuring out how Notre Dame's one-goal win over Duke equates to the mercy rule and much more.

In a TV-inspired Give & Go, the guys list their favorite TV sitcoms of all time, along with a few honorable mention picks. Who would have guessed Dixie was such a big Tony Danza fan?
