defense great playing talented
They're a very talented team, they play great defense and their goalie has been playing very well.
alex defense gives great
Alex was fabulous. We know we've got a great goalie; Alex gives our defense confidence.
greater less mine role
His role is no less than mine is. And it is a lot greater than mine in some ways.
great
He's strong, and he's very fast. Those two things are really important to being great at his position.
alex almost best certainly great kept
Alex is phenomenal, if not the best goalie the country, certainly one of them. He does it every day in practice, so it's almost commonplace to see him do these things. He was great today, he kept us in there when things got crazy.

There was a little spark, so hopefully we can carry that into our Ivy League season.

Schwartzman was definitely the difference in the first half. But our guy was the difference in the second.

Every game is so important, especially in a year like this with so many upsets. You can't lose focus. After last year, I think the reminder is still clear enough.

I think, just like Syracuse the other day, we may have felt like we had our backs against the wall. This was a classic Princeton win.
kids play lacrosse
If I was US Lacrosse, I wouldn't let any kids play field until they were 10 or 12,
lacrosse way united-states
Until box lacrosse grows in the United States, it'll continue to be this way.
believe opportunity player
I believe that box lacrosse gives young people many more opportunities to excel in our game. If I had my choice, I would have every player under the age of twelve play box lacrosse exclusively or at least a majority of the time. The number of touches of the ball and the ability to develop better stick skills in a game of box lacrosse, far surpasses what happens to young people on a 110 x 60 yard field. Learning how to pass and catch in traffic, understanding how to shoot, and developing a sense of physicality are all positive traits developed by the box game.
head imagine listen
You can imagine him nodding his head as you listen to the tape.
against defense good team
You have to get possession. You can't play defense for as long as we did, especially against a really good team like Hofstra.
