    Weekend Preview, Free Streams, and Joey Spallina joins the show

    Happy Friday! We've got a load of games to get to this weekend. First, we start with a few thoughts on the idea of ticket prices and streaming fees being the thing that hold lacrosse back, along with the fact that games all get played at the same time. It's a complicated conversation and I'm glad we're having it. Then, Joey Spallina joins the pod. We talk to the Syracuse attackman about expectations both personal and for the team, how long he enjoyed the win over Maryland for, his first full week at #1, developing his game through both club and indoor lacrosse, this weekend's matchup, Johnny Mullen's tattoos, and more. Finally, we go through the weekend slate. We go through every game, tell you when and where to watch, and make some picks. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

    Stars on the rise after a fun weekend, and the Tuesday Top 20

    It's Tuesday, time to set up the weekend ahead. We start by celebrating some of the guys who had exceptional lacrosse weekend's. From Jayden Kittelberger to Matt Nilan to Noah Walsh, it's a celebration of the under the radar stars who may not be under the radar much longer. Then, the Tuesday Top 20.  We start with Cuse unanimously at the top, breaking down everything from their game against Maryland in the dome on Friday night. Then we hit each team in the latest ballot, and talk all the results, welcoming the Ivies to the fray. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

    Top two matchup, Tewaaraton Watch List, and Previewing Week 2

    The first Tewaaraton Watch List has arrived, and we're breaking the whole thing down. Which conferences have the biggest presence, numbers by position, and a quick list of names that should be quick adds when the next wave of names is released. Then, it's game previews. First and foremost we're talking Syracuse vs Maryland in the dome in a matchup of the top two teams in America. A few key positional battles to discuss, and we pick the game. Then, the rest of the slate, with a few notes for every team in action and some players to watch. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

    Tuesday Top 20, Penn State upset, and MERCER BEAT MARIST

    Our first Tuesday Top 20 of the year is here! We start by talking about some of the most surprising results of the weekend, including Mercer over Marist, Holy Cross beating Hofstra in OT, and NJIT putting up 17 on St John's during the Super Bowl. Then, we shout out some of the best individual performances across the college landscape from the weekend. Finally, it's the full top 20. I run through my latest ballot for the IL Media poll, talking about some results along the way and offering my voting rationale. Spoiler, avoiding a game gets you deranked.

    PLL Schedule release, previewing NCAA Week 1

    Let's do Week 1 again? Week 0 again? What week is it? It's just cold. We start with a look at the PLL Schedule. We've now got the full rundown of matchups and dates to go with venues, so we go team by team to look at who has a hard road, who has an easy road, and whose road is just plain weird. I call out some of the new changes in the schedule this year, things I love, and things that I'll need to see to believe in. Then, it's the NCAA weekend again. Yet again, mother nature has forced a number of games to be rescheduled, relocated, or postponed. I run through the whole slate and update you on the new game times, how to watch, and a few notes on the matchup before making picks. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

    Our (almost) first Tuesday Top 20. Recapping the limited action of week 0

    It's our first regular season Tuesday, but not quite our usual Tuesday episode. With all the cancellations there was no media poll this week, so we don't have a top 20 to go through. Instead, we talk a bit about the issues that have emerged as the season pushes earlier, and possible solutions to what is becoming a serious problem. Then, we recap some of the games that did get played. We talk surprising results, lessons learned, and the three players I thought did the most to stand out this weekend.

    Previewing a snowy 2026 NCAA lacrosse Week 1 (Week 0? Week -1?)

    The NCAA lacrosse season is here, with games starting today on a positive Friday. Before getting into games, we take a run through my full preseason All American ballot. Team by team and position by position, I reveal who I voted for, why I voted that way, how it's different from the final teams, and who the next group of players on my list was when I ran out of spots. Then, after a few hot words about some very cold weather, we get into the weekend slate. I run through all the games that are (or were) on the schedule, update you on their status and how to watch them, and make some picks against the spread. If you need reference for schedule changes this weekend, look here: https://www.sticksinlacrosse.com/post/schedule-changes-due-to-weather-for-ncaa-lacrosse-week-0   Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

    Welcome to the 2026 college lacrosse season

    The 2026 college lacrosse season is upon us! This is a Wednesday edition of the Tuesday Top 20. We focus on the preseason content today. To start, we take a spin through the Inside Lacrosse Top 50 players. I was lucky enough to vote again this year, so I give you the top of my ballot, who I had at one, the biggest disparities between where I had players and where they ended up, a few names I voted for that didn't make it, plus some names I didn't vote for that did. Then, it's the preseason poll.  I give you the entirety of my Top 20 ballot along with my reasoning for ranking each team where I did, and a few thoughts about their outlook on the year.
