  • LaxFactor Podcast #69: Syracuse Lacrosse Scrimmage vs Vermont/Hofstra Discussion

    I was in the house for the Syracuse/Vermont/Hofstra scrimmage on Sunday and we have some highlights and commentary on how it went. The scrimmage was closed to the public, and Hofstra was was closed to everyone. They opened the doors for the media for the Vermont tilt and it was great to get to see Syracuse in action for the first time this spring.

  • LaxFactor Lacrosse Daily #005 (1.24.20): Syracuse Hires Tommy Costanza As Volunteer Assistant To Replace Donahue

    While I'm sad to see Kevin Donahue leave the Syracuse program after having been a soldier for our cause for countless years, I'm also excited about this new Tommy Costanza hire.  The guy is dripping in Upstate NY swagger juice, he's connected all over to high school coaches, college coaches and parents thanks to his ties to the Sweetlax program as one of the directors and coaches.  Even though he can't formally recruit as a volunteer assistant, I bet March and company name dropping Costanza can't hurt with some of these upstate kids Cuse is trying to keep home (and away from Cornell & Albany).  So today I'm going to ramble for 13 minutes about Tommy Costanza, the newest addition to a changing Syracuse coaching staff.

  • LaxFactor Lacrosse Podcast #68: North Carolina, Jacksonville & Navy 2020 Previews & Scrimmage Recaps

    In this episode of the LaxFactor Lacrosse Podcast (#68) we will talk 2020 previews for North Carolina, Jacksonville & Navy.  The three teams had a scrimmage this past weekend so it only makes sense to preview all of them in one shot. Jacksonville went up early on UNC and defeated the Heels, Navy beat up a bit on Jacksonville, and UNC beat Navy, so it was up and down for all three teams, but it was quality lacrosse and all three teams had moments where they looked great. We'll talk a bit about Chris Gray and Caton Johnson as well.

  • Johns Hopkins Lacrosse News: Jack Rapine Will Not Play In 2020 (LaxFactor Podcast Lacrosse News)

    It was announced on Friday night, first by College Crosse, and later by Ty Xanders of Inside Lacrosse that Jack Rapine, supposed to be senior defender for Johns Hopkins in 2020 will NOT be playing in the 2020 season, and all indications are this is it for Rapine at Johns Hopkins.

    It's being reported that Rapine will stay on campus and finish out his degree, but what this means for Rapine's future as a college lacrosse player is unclear. Will he transfer and play a year as a graduate student somewhere else?  If so, who get's him?  Duke?  UVA?  Syracuse? 

    This is bad news for Johns Hopkins lacrosse fans any way you try and paint it.

  • LaxFactor Lacrosse Daily #001 (1.17.20): Corson Kealey of Robert Morris Will Turn Heads In 2020
    In the first episode of LaxFactor Daily, I discuss Paul Carcaterra's (@paulcarcaterra) recent tweet about five D1 attackers that aren't getting enough RESPECT.  First up, Corson Kealey, a junior out of Robert Morris.

    He's a nice dodger
    Yet another lefty, canadian, it's like there is something in the water up there.  But Kealey is a  dodging, offense creating lefty Canadian.  Not as quick and shifty as Cornell's Teat, and not as accomplished sniper from outside as Denver's Walker. Both of those guys are filthy lefty Canadian attack men that can dodge with the best of them.  But Kealey isn't far behind them in terms of his dodging and finishing prowess.  His 51 goals with a 41.6 shooting percentage tells you what you need to know.  The kid put 73% of his shots on cage.  That's because he's mixing it up, and getting shots in close.
    Versatile in how he attacks you
    A lot of Canadians like to keep you out front, they dodge from wings and love going underneath, something Kealey excels at.  But he can also dodge from X, get you on the high side if you try and not give him the underneath.  So if you overplay him high, he's sure to merk you, whether it's from the wing or from X.  But if you try to take away that underneath dodge, whether he rolls you, facedodges you, swims you, whatever, if you take that way, he'll wrap it off you on the high side.
    As with most Canucks, he's great in transition, broken plays
    Surprise...he can burn you as the lefty finisher on a fast break, he'll sting one from the back side on man up. He picks up ground balls and goes to the cooker.  33 ground balls in fact, so he mixes it up for sure.
    Can hit an open guy.
    He's not going to do anything crazy and have a 4-helper outing. But if an open man presents himself, he will hit him.  Robert Morris has some.
    Has help coming back
    Robert Morris lost a couple of scorers in Tyson Gibson (67 points) and Matt Schmidt (41 points), but senior Ryan Smith returns as do his 37 goals and 19 helpers. Jake Boudreau put up 15 goals, 18 assists and is also back for his Junior year. Austin Popovich could see a jump in production as well with burn opening up in front of him.

  • LaxFactor Lacrosse Podcast #66: Tewaaraton Finalist Favorites For 2020 Lacrosse Season
    In this episode of the LaxFactor Lacrosse Podcast (#66) I discuss the five guys that I think will end up getting named the 2020 Tewaaraton Award Finalists. There are a lot of guys that will be considered and on the "watch list" as the year goes on, but these five guys I feel have the best shot at being named "Tewaaraton Award Finalists" by the years end. Only five players get the honor leading up to the final vote.
