Three times at the Final Four and once in the Finals in 1991. If Loyola can do it, why not us? If f/o guy Alex Woodall doesn't get injured in the 2017 semfinal, who knows?

15th nationally. This is our year to make a run.

I would add Charles Thompson’s injury in the first round win over Northeastern the year we won the regular season title. Though Charles played against Delaware in the semifinal, he was a shadow of himself. Like Athens in the FCS championship game all over again.

I was there for the UNC game in 1991 with no Beernink. That team had Glenn Smith (Towson HOF), Lindsay Dixon (THOF), John Blatchley (THOF), Rob Shek (THOF, NHOF), and the late Carl Beernink (THOF). The best all-around player was pole Steve Kisslinger. Nobody will top that team. The 2001 team was fast and enjoyable to watch, but wasn't as physical as this team. The 2017 team was outstanding with future HOFers in Drenner, Goodrich, Woodall, Seider and Jack Adams. That team was really, really good and it's a shame Woodall was injured. Tremendous defensive midfield with incredible speed. This team has more scorers. Yeah, it seems whenever we get to the dance really good teams, we have injuries to key guys that we can't afford to lose. Bigger programs have more depth. You can't replace 6-6, 215 with 33 goals, but I wonder why Alex Vieni hasn't played all year on the second midfield over Jamison Gaskins (6g, 16 shots). Vieni already has 7 goals on 9 shots in limited playing time. Not sure this was a potential FF squad even with Villagomez because the road would be insane. We needed a strong non-conference win. The Loyola loss still stings. https://towsontigers.com/news/2024/5/4/mens-lacrosse-the-roar-has-been-restored-towson-mens-lacrosse-2024-caa-champion.aspx

Geez, didn't realize that Shawn Nadelen has been here for 20 years as an assistant and head coach. He was a great player at Hopkins and for the World team. I remember when Waddell introduced him as the new head coach over a decade ago when Tony Seaman was let go. Dude looked like a player and he still was one. But he became a pretty good coach. Kudos to him for staying this long when he could have left for other jobs. Thought the 2019 loss and losing OC Anthony Gilardi to Stony Brook was damaging. But this 2024 version was more than just DeMaio dishing it out to everyone. They had a 10-man ride that was as good as anybody's in the nation. Luke Downs had a pretty good year in the cage and was on it over those two games in the tournament. The defense was shaky against the big boys but I think got much better as the season moved on. I wish I could say that they could upset one of the big boys and I think they could but the loss of Villagomez (assuming he's out) is tough to replace.

Please!!! For the name alone…. Can we do a quick snap raise 💰

Trade Joel Embiid!!!

Villagomez at the crease again. 5-2. Love to see him move around. Great passing. I believe it was Mauer, who already has two goals.

CB Tremell Harrell from Nothern Colorado offer https://x.com/twin_da_goat1/status/1785717294691172727?s=46&t=nScacl1TWT-KyOwj5stBaw

A lot of things to be held accountable for......just an addition to the list

I think many of us will follow his season at Coastal with great interest. If for instance he has a good season (by which I generally mean averaging in double digits) this coaching staff should be (but won’t be) held accountable for why they jettisoned him and kept certain other players on the roster.

Rather we won than lost. Also doesn't matter unless we win next weekend.

SUCK IT CHICKENS!! Another heartstopper as Downs makes a huge save with 2:49 left in a 10-10 game on a terrific Delaware set play. Then as the shot clock was winding down, Villagomez hits Demaio with 1:31 left for the go-ahead goal. Great defense kept the Chickens from getting any big threat on their next possession (after a horrid Towson turnover following a timeout with 1:15 left) and then one more big steal on a bad pass from their goalie with :25 left so we could run out the clock. Nice to get the regular season crown but it's next Saturday that we really want. If we get them again, I hope we'll take better looks at how we shot on Ellington because he made a ton of good saves that he made look routine. Meanwhile, Downs got beat by at least 4 shots from 20 yards out and it looked like he had a decent view of 2 of them.
