Quote from: Bartman on Yesterday at 09:11:19 AMCongrats to Skidmore on persevering over Hobart. Hobart seemed to have the momentum after scratching and clawing back to send the game to OT. Hobart had to go to their #2 goaltender for PKs after starter was injured in the game. But watching two PKs go high was deadly.Hopefully the NPI is enough to get in, if not they will be kicking themselves for the end of season struggles.

Hobart only dropped from 29 to 32 as it's recorded as a tie not a loss. Barring chaos elsewhere this shouldn't wreck them.

Quote from: UfanBill on October 18, 2026, 11:34:33 AMUnion announced the formation of a women's flag football team over a year ago and named a longtime local Section #2 high school flag  football coach Frank Rogers as their first coach. https://www.union.edu/news/stories/202510/union-launch-womens-flag-football-program-spring-2027 ..."A typical roster contains 25 players. Teams compete in a 7-on-7 format on an 80' x 40' field, with games consisting of four 12-minute quarters." The Garnet Chargers will play their home games at Frank Bailey Field at Bertagna-Class of 1985 Stadium.

The women have been practicing for weeks in anticipation of their initial season beginning in 2027. They have their first scrimmage open to the public today 10/18 at 3:30. https://www.instagram.com/p/DefIOK7mGaq/ 

They will be part of a league formed by the ECAC in conjunction with the NY Jets and a million dollar donation by owner Woody Johnson. They've actually already concluded the inaugural season this spring with Marymount emerging as the first champ.  ...https://unionathletics.com/news/2025/12/2/ecac-to-launch-colleges-largest-womens-flag-football-league.aspx ...Four Liberty League schools have announced plans to participate. Union, William Smith, St Lawrence and Ithaca,

Ufan, a very Comprehensive summary of the new sport rollout. The Herons Fag Football team will start their inaugural season on McCooey Field that is separate from the Boz but is currently the Field Hockey field and was the Mens Lax field for a few seasons. It should be a great sport as the season unfolds next year.

the Herons what now

We can stop pretending Rochester is worth a damn now.

Quote from: stlawus on October 02, 2026, 02:27:52 PMBard used to be in the Skyline. I don't know why they ever left. That conference is perfectly suited for them competitively and travel wise. They were very clearly recruited to the LL as a travel partner for Vassar as the travel pairing used to be Vassar-RPI. But that kind of got negated with the addition of Ithaca since one of the three capital area teams had to be paired with one of the western NY teams or Ithaca which is quite a haul.

they left because the LL invited them and their president wanted to be associated with LL schools and not Skyline schools. He and their administration were told it was a bad fit competitively without huge upgrades to budget and infrastructure - they didn't care then and they don't care now.

the way I heard it was the LL recruited Bard as opposed to Bard actively seeking admission. When RIT and Ithaca applied together the LL was delighted to have RIT and didn't want IC at the time. The ADs were very much opposed to Bard and correctly so.

The league members won't kick anyone out but people who know things have told me Bard coaches and AD are extremely tired of having their heads bashed in all the time; they basically have a PIF for themselves but  if it doesn't work out in a few years they will look for alternate conference arrangements.

They're 3-3-3 (1-1 Skyline). I have to assume whatever coach voted for them meant to vote for St. Lawrence.

at least Buffalo State has 94 guys on their roster (website). They lack linemen though. Too many WR and DB, not enough big bubbas.

Hilbert only has 51 if completely healthy, anything short of the NFL 53 spells trouble.

I watch probably more than the recommended daily allowance of Marist football and can further contribute that their rushing attack funnels primarily through their 5th year senior QB1 and a 4th year senior tailback.

Quote from: budmankurt on September 08, 2026, 01:18:32 AMDoes anyone know why Isaiah Simmons is no longer on the roster?

He plays at Marist now

OT in Schenectady! Susquehanna throws 34 yard TD pass with 2 seconds left and elects to kick rather than go all in.

What about Bard? I know they don't field football, and that they've dropped lacrosse, but they're still in the LL, no? Do they not field enough teams to qualify/rate?

I imagine Rochester counts for UAA; any idea where they finished?

Rochester at 72nd, one spot behind IC.

Bard and Clarkson would be N/A as they didn't qualify for any NCAA D3 tournament (and in Bard's case any LL playoffs besides baseball.)

Redlands 7 Trine 6 in Game 2. Congrats to the national champions!

Redlands won 11-3 in Game 1. Game 2, and if necessary Game 3, are scheduled for tomorrow.
