UMD vs UW Milwaukee

Any predictions, Id have to say its a win for Milwaukee if they get more than 3, Im gonna go ahead and guess a final of 23-2

We're all excited for the game, thats all I'm going to say.

Should be fun, after watching Duluth play last weekend I think they will be one of the top top five teams I've played against.

Were all hoping to play a solid game against a solid team. Looking forward to Saturday.

Unfortunately, i am not going to predict a winner or score,

however, i think that contest will be tightly contested!

No one in the UMLL has seen us except for Marquette. I have the utmost
confidence in my squad and they will perform to the best of their abilities.

it will be an interesting game to say the least, a win for the umll in general.

I wish Milwaukee well, it's unfortunate this is how they have to begin their MCLA run. I think they'll do better than people think, but I think anything within a 10 goal spread is a success for them.

best of luck, welcome to the UMLL.

UMD - 19
UWM - 4

UMD - 30
MKE - 2

Not gonna lie, UMD very deliberately and obviously ran-up the score after what was deemed a dirty play sent UMD attackman Casey Mithun to the hospital. You know that's the case when a UMD player takes a 20 yard shot with a 30-goal lead as time's expiring. Some would call it UMD flexing it's muscle, many more would call it a display of poor sportsmanship and retaliation. I thought UWM exceeded expectations, and I'd have to imagine the score would have been ~20 to 2 if that injury never occurred, given UMD's previous scores against Marquette and Iowa State.

Anyways, UWM came out with plenty of intensity and stuck to the game plan throughout the 1st quarter. Face offs, inability to win a ground ball, and unforced errors/impatient and sloppy gilman clearing allowed UMD to control the ball for the entirety of quarters 2-4.

...seemed like a cross-check to the throat when he was already down on the ground. He appeared to be unconscious for at least several minutes before he was eventually removed on a stretcher.

UWM goals scored, of course, by Jack and Jaron.

Game still isn't up on UMD's webcasts

anyone wanna post a link?

That hit was NOT bad at all... that video just proved it

agreed jack... how is that player who was hit anyway?

He's doing good. From my understanding he suffered a concussion but it shouldn't interfere with the season at all for him.

What's the time in the video of the hit?

Sometime towards the end of the second quarter.

any body else have a problem with bad video quality?

Yes, plus there's no sound

the hit is in the 28th minute, in my opinion, not a lot to be mad about

Eh...it was a little late and he drove him into the ground kinda like a tackle in football. Worthy of a penalty, yes...something to turn into a huge deal, no.

For those who want to know exactly, it's at 28:28.

IMO, it was a penalty, but it's not anything to bad.
