We need to put this shit away

Balkam made a super play on Kavanaugh, just stuffing him when he was shooting right at the crease.

 

[UNC71-00]

Goddammit

 

[WoadBlue]

Irish keep fighting. Wynn cuts it to 13-7 Heels

 

[WoadBlue]

We wasted back to back possessions, and Kavanaugh makes us pay.

[UNC71-00]

Come on. No cause for panic

 

[UNC71-00]

Oh hell yes.

Balkam with the MVP of todays game

 

[WoadBlue]

It has been a very long time since UNC reached the lacrosse Championship Weekend. It has been 25 years since we won it all.

UNC basketball national titles in 1957 and then in 1982.

Maybe 25 years is magic for us.

 

[TarHeelNation11]

Go Heels

 

[UNC71-00]

Need another big day out of Stephen Kelly. And Pifani has his work cut out for him with that freshman attack.

Go Heels

 

[WoadBlue]

Some queer Euro soccer is not off. Hopefully it will be by 12:10/ 11:10, face off time.

 

[WoadBlue]

2 Loyola tripping penalties. With 2 men up, Cannon scores.

[WoadBlue]

Timmy Kelly with a sharp goal.

3- 0 Heels

 

[UNC71-00]

Great start. Best way to defend Spencer is to keep the ball on the other end.

 

[WoadBlue]

Greyhounds do not intend to wilt away. Smart, patient possession.

3-1 Heels

 

[WoadBlue]

McBride scores off Loyola losing face off. A trip would have been called on Connell, but the Greyhound did not fall. McBride scooped the ball and took right the goal.

4 - 1 Heels

 

[WoadBlue]

Wow. Cloutier fights off tough Hound D all over him and then scores.

5 - 1 Heels

 

[WoadBlue]

Timmy Kelly scores again. He is some freshman. Beats upper class defensemen.

6 - 1 Heels

 

[UNC71-00]

Kelly not dominating face offs like he did last week.

One of the other Kellys scores on a great roll dodge

Cloutier with that left handed whip shot bounce from mid range.

[WoadBlue]

Sherlock bounces one in from deep.

7 - 2 Heels

Goldstock gets in on the act with a beautiful shot. Loyola D looks porous.

8 - 2 Heels

 

[WoadBlue]

Hounds with a fast break off the face off, and Balkam with the great save.

 

[WoadBlue]

Cloutier is a beast in the middle. No check fazes him.

9 - 2 Heels

 

[UNC71-00]

Good Lord

 

[WoadBlue]

Super help team D by the Heels on the last Hound possession of the 1st.

9 - 2 Heels

 

[UNC71-00]

Couldn't have asked for a better opening quarter. Need to maintain focus here.

 

[WoadBlue]

Hounds change goalie.

 

[WoadBlue]

Heels had long patient possession, matched by the Hounds smart zone D. They get the ball and fast break, and we stop it and head back. Cloutier his 4th goal.

10 - 2 Heels

Stephen Kelly gets face off and starts break that leads to Goldsatock goal.

[UNC71-00]

Good grief. The last time I saw an ass kicking like this, I was in the goal against Carolina in 93.

 

[WoadBlue]

Good D by both teams, ending possessions of the other. Finally Loyola scores.

12 - 3 Heels

 

[WoadBlue]

Good grief. The last time I saw an ass kicking like this, I was in the goal against Carolina in 93.
