FR Drew Bogardus leads the CAA with 15 goals and an average of 3.75 gpg. Madsen, Mollica and Natalie are also in the top 10. Yes, it's early and yes, we had two high-scoring games to start the season, but I like the distributed scoring we have this year. St. John's held Natalie to just four shots, but he came through when it counted.

St. John's is a tough team. They outplayed Delaware in the first half of that game, then ran out of steam. BTW, I can't remember when the Hens, who lost to UPenn today, last scored only 2 goals.

With WLAX player Nikki Mennella winning Offensive POTW honors again, Hofstra has swept this category this week:

Congratulations to both players and their teammates on these achievements.

We should be better than Stony Brook. They struggled to beat Iona and we blew Iona out by a score of 20 to 2.

Totally agree Mikey75. I sent Tierney an email asking him to kindly resign so we wouldn’t have to watch and keep up with this garbage. I don’t get why metzger even donates to men’s lacrosse with how atrocious this team has been for the last 10 years. It’s beyond me and he should start donating to men’s basketball or a sport more worth while

All six of our starting attack and midfield players scored in today’s 15-9 win over Monmouth. We also had 17 saves and held our own on faceoffs. We are 2-0 in the CAA with five league games to go. We host a tough Delaware squad next weekend.

Edit: Adding highlights:

Big home game tomorrow vs. UD at 12 noon. The Hens have an outstanding goalie and one of the top FO specialists in the country (currently ranked first in winning %). We’ll have to make the most of our possessions.

Also, for those who follow other CAA teams, Fairfield @ Stony Brook will be on SNY tomorrow at 12 noon and repeated throughout the weekend. Fairfield is the only undefeated team in D1 and we have already defeated SBU.

I would love to see our games on SNY.
