0:00 The game is on. So is the possession clock
PREGAME Darien is wearing the black uniforms with blue numbers, St. Paul’s is wearing the white tops and green numbers
PREGAME The teams are warming up under overcast skies, temperature around 72 with thunderstorms possible
PREGAME Also to bear in mind is that defenders can run through the crease like in the NCAA
PREGAME A rules modification that could also come into play is that penalty cards, up to the fourth in a game, are releaseable. This runs counter to the NFHS regulation, which came into play one year ago when Northport (N.Y.) took a late penalty in the first half of a showdown against New Canaan (Conn.). The Rams scored three goals on the power play and won the game.
PREGAME Of course, we’ve already talked about the possession clock, which will keep teams from stalling late and will put pressure on offenses to get off a shot on cage
PREGAME Hello, and welcome to Tierney Field at U.S. Lacrosse Headquarters in Sparks-Glencoe, Md. for this interstate matchup between Darien (Md.) and Brooklandville St. Paul’s (Md.)
