[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Here are my thoughts:

GP absolutely dominated the first quarter and the first half. I thought GP defensive coordinator did a great job mixing in defensive schemes from extending out and shutting off adjacents and at times locking off the attacker at X. Landon didn't seem prepared for this, as it really disrupted the flow of the Bears offensively. The Hoyas defensive which I personally thought was their achilles heel all season, looked very athletic and sharp yesterday. While everyone has praised the GP Fogo, and he was dominant yesterday, winning over 80% at the dot, the Hoyas also won the ground-ball battles.

[b]Regarding the scoring: [/b]
The score was 5-0 after the 1Q
6-0 Hoyas early in the 2nd. 
7-2 at halftime. 
9-4 heading into the 4th. 
10-4 early in the 4th
10-7 with less than 4 mins left in the 4th
10-8 with less than 1 min left in the 4th. 
10-9 with less than 45 seconds
10-10

In the 4th, a light switch went off for Landon, and the Bears looked dominant for the final 10 mins of regulation and tied the game with less than 10 seconds left in regulation time. I'm not sure if this was coaching adjustments made by Landon as both teams looked gassed, but the Bears played with a ton of heart to storm back.

The first overtime was very even, both teams had their chances with shots on the cage, and both goalies were making saves. Unfortunately for Landon, one of their defenders suffered a bad leg injury during the first overtime (hope he is okay, as you hate to see any get hurt)I believe in the 2nd overtime, I don't recall if Landon even had a possession, as the possession off the faceoff was so lopsided in GP's favor.

As mentioned, an interesting game to watch. GP looked dominant in the first half, but statistically, the game was very even in the 2nd half (minus the massive FOGO advantage towards the Hoyas). Landon hung around and somehow found life and capitalized on momentum in the 4th.

Bears and Hoyas played twice this spring, and both games went into overtime, with the Hoyas winning both contests. I thought Prep was lucky to win the first game; however, their team's athleticism yesterday really stood out, they won the 50:50 GBs, and that was the difference maker.

Congrats to GP, onto the finals!

Good commentary.

From my two cents, these teams played twice in a week, and both games needed OT to settle the outcome. Two evenly matched teams, with the slight edge going to GP due to their FOGO dominance and the Hoyas winning both battles in OT.

For all the Landon homers acting as if they had a stellar FOGO, you probably would have won the game, you might be right, but you didn't.
