[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Given the limited chatter from the SJC faithful, I'm guessing SJCs performance against Saint Mary's was just so-so

[/quote]

I am not an SJC person but was there and both teams looked pretty good to me.  Not sure who was still on the field but there was one point where SJC scored 5 or so straight goals.  SJC is not filled with physical specimens but they play very well together and are very smart.  Give them a few more weeks of practice and they will roll against a many teams.  [/quote]

Even until half.  St. John’s pulled starters after that.

St. John’s put it on St. Albans.  If they are supposed to compete in the IAC than the IAC isn’t good. [/quote]

STA was missing a bunch of starters including offensive players as well.  They definitely got outplayed but there were a bunch of kids who had never played in a varsity game before playing significant minutes.  Even if it’s a scrimmage, St. John’s is a quality opponent and a tough first time draw.  The best play of the day though was the STA LSM pump fake and blast past the St. Anne’s goalie.  He never saw the ball. [/quote]

So the defense was hurt and the offense was missing? Where were they?[/quote]

Why so many questions?  It’s really not hard: There were like 4 or 5 players who were out.  Hockey and injuries.  A couple of them are some of the best players.  I think one is preseason all area.  STA doesn’t have the depth to play their best with those kinds of kids out.  Still.  It was a scrimmage and it’s only February.  Will see how it goes through the season.[/quote]

Ryken?

4 - 3 after 1 
7-4 at half

Must have been missing the entire team. [/quote]

STA killed Ryken and played no one.  The Penn commits didn’t play, nor the Bowdoin kids, or the Cornell commit, etc.  After beating those guys by a ton last year, they threw frosh and sophs at them this year.

Against St.John’s and St. Mary’s they were missing the kid going to Cornell, another defensive starter, one of the best 25 attacks and another attack who is also all Met in soccer and hockey.  The other defensive starter is likely to play football in college.  While those guys are not STJohns level lax guys, except for the kid going to Cornell, all 4 are future college athletes and starters or key subs.  None played.  When STA is down 4 college level athletes, it makes a difference.  They wouldn’t have beaten St. John’s with them but they were close to St. Mary’s without them.  Assuming St. Mary’s was at full strength, which they may not have been, I think full strength STA does ok.  [/quote]

7-4 at half is not killing anyone. [/quote]
