As Pure As The Driven Snow

Fresh tastes from New Hampshire and Lindenwood.

New Hampshire King IIIs

White and silver and navy and the hardest state slogan of all time.

King IIIs Brine New Hampshire

In case you were wondering that is in fact the official motto of the state of New Hampshire. Of course, we’re going to allow it! School and state pride together at once. UNH is a navy and white institution, but most teams include silver in their uniforms because of the silver in the logo. Therefore while the silvery wisps of unicorn hair may be offensive to some, for New Hampshire they are justified. How much does the navy font make these gloves stand out? David Mills in Se7en, “Honestly, have you ever seen anything like this?” Might be looking at something like that for the American Revolution gloves. Inspired.

These gloves are the difference between pushing boundaries in a good way and pushing boundaries in a, “we just put animal print all over our uniform way.”

Lindenwood’s New Lids

Photo is from fall ball. Yes, the helmets are white. Yes, they are wearing their uniforms in a scrimmage. Likely an event to benefit the growth of St. Louis lacrosse. Hoping.

Praying the white dome craze ends by 2012. And as soon as a non-gold team rocks a gold mask, we’ll banish the face mask to Boring Town in the Land of Conformity.

2009 Oregon Women’s Highlight Tape?

Not sure why this is coming out now and we’re kind of bored with Oregon at the moment but we love this Switchfoot banger and the goalie’s helmet.

And nothing brightens our day quite like a Carolina goalie of any sport getting scored on.

And we thought our schedule was challenging.

Twelve of fourteen games on the road including two three game weekends. We’ll be battle tested for the GRLC tournament that’s for sure. But then I saw the Butler schedule and suddenly felt like our slate was Cupcake City. The Bulldogs play two games in one day three times including a stretch of four games in two days.

It’s club lax like that.

Shooting from Hell

Is that what 14 yards looks like?

How about the color guy having no idea that Thompson is a JuCo transfer?

From the Get a Real Hobby, Bro Department

But why are they wearing knee high socks on a grass field?

    great post!

    Women’s lax and New Hampshire… couldn’t get any better.

    Live free or die isn’t just a motto, its a way of life. You would be surprised at how many of our state laws are because of it.(no seat belts, no car insurance, a lot more too)

    jerseys in fall ball because our school signed a deal with adidas in august, so we got kinda screwed in terms of reversibles because by that time adidas was literally just out of reversibles in the warehouse…they need to be stocking more next year and we need to order sooner.

    expect LU to have a down year in the GRLC… I’m calling it now. Not even the best team in the state right now, let alone the conference.

    Wooden stick is definitely on the birthday list.

    I watched a couple of their games this fall. I know you don’t put any stock into fall ball performances, but a team who has national aspirations should not look as bad as they did at any point of the year. The loss of Troy Hood at the helm will hurt them.

    Mizzou looked like a well oiled machine, and boast a stud former NCAA D1 attackman. I think they could be a top 3 team in the GRLC team this season. Just my .02
