Penn coach Murphy of all people got Penn into an early hole with a two-minute unreleasable penalty by bad mouthing a ref, which must have been really severe — hardly ever see such a thing called in a playoff game. That alone cost Penn two goals, Tigers had four EMO goals overall, and no penalties of their own, always a point of pride in Madalon’s world. Penn also got called for two cross checks to the head, which is a big no-no.

It probably would have been a better idea for the Penn D to study its first Princeton loss and change up its approach, instead of leaving Carroll exposed to win it on his own, then foul in frustration when they got behind.

Agreed and Penn drew several penalties against Cornell. As I have mentioned before Cornell lax has struggled against physical teams like Penn. The Quakers knew if they wanted to beat Cornell they had to play a hard hitting game, which is exactly what they did. Physicality is part of the men's game and is one of the reasons lax has become so popular. For example, Cornell freshman Ryan Goldstein had a breakout season as most first year players never see the field. Ryan is currently 5'9" and only 145 lbs., but he's probably still growing and gets in the weight room he could become a dominant player for Cornell. Go Big Red!!!
