FYI, Monmouth is in the CAA now, not the Big South....

Harding at Kutztown (+7.5) - Bears have been clearing lines throughout these playoffs. Prove me wrong again, fellas.

Newberry (+21.5) at...

I will make my picks in another post, but it looks like the home team is reversed in a few of these matchups. Johns Hopkins, Berry, and UC Davis are all...

Maybe they should call that defensive genius in Greensburg for some ideas....

[EastStroud13]

I'm not sure this is true. The combined D2 record of the teams Harding beat is 27-6. The combined D2 record of the teams Kutztown beat is 24-6. Obviously...

You know what, as a Philly fan, fair point. I'll clarify that it happens to be a few loud individuals....

[EastStroud13]

I lurk on all the other conference boards to see what's going on around the country. A few of the Harding commenters are some of the worst this board...

[EastStroud13]

I assume this is partly the fault of the GAC's silo? Harding had no chance to pick up a good non-conference win, meanwhile Kutztown scheduled Assumption...

No, your point of view is correct. It's not an even playing field. That doesn't mean that an exceptional public school won't defeat a private school every...

Frostburg State (+20.5) at Kutztown - It might be a fool's game picking against Kutztown but Frostburg has been playing really well, and I'd like to make...

Puzzling for sure. I don't think he'll be out of work for long if he wants another position.

[EastStroud13]

To be fair to you... it doesn't make sense for those two teams to be in the same division competitively with the merger. Every year that Reading, Lebanon,...

Slippery Rock provided a blueprint last year for staying with Ferris. Take risks down the field and take advantage of any mistakes they make. Winning...

District 1 leagues have been fairly stable all things considered, as it pertains to alignment. Ridley and Conestoga are both still in the Central Lea...

Southern Lehigh vs. Twin Valley should be a really fun final. Neither team has ever won a state title in football, as far as I know.

I think the next closest is women's lacrosse, but it really doesn't come close to field hockey.

[EastStroud13]

One nice early sign is Ship off to a good start. They have 4 straight wins after a tough opening loss at Frostburg. The win over Wilmington is especially...

It's a tricky question. WVW might win a few games in D3 but they would lose a majority of their traditional rivals, and I don't think they'd turn into...

Assumption (+21.5) at Kutztown - Kutztown is really good, but it's tough to blow out a playoff-caliber team twice in a single season. Greyhounds do enough...

Congrats! Ship's definitely the standard-bearer for "the SEC of D2 field hockey" right now.
