Weird season so far and demonstrates how talent has spread through out the men's game.


I think we are 2 goals away from being #1.

And two goals from being unranked.

If ND had beaten Richmond 9-8? ND would be 3-0 and likely #1 after beating formerly undefeated Maryland this past weekend.

And yet, if we had lost to Maryland in OT this past weekend? We'd be 1-2 and probably have fallen from 17th to unranked.

Crazy.


That's the way the entire season will go, I would expect

The difference between #1 team and #30 team is not that significant. Teams that can win 1 goal games consistently will rise to the top.

The MD win was huge - I'd even go as far as to say it saved ND's season. If they were 1-2 without any confidence, the season could have easily gone south. Glad to see they had the grit to win.
