Nick Watson:
Scored against Loyola in a Fall scrimmage and looks to have switched position to midfield for SBU from attack for Oldham/Rochdale & England

The 2012 Roster isn't out yet

[6x6]

Sowell did a great job with that program, it'll be interesting to see how they do under Nagle.

[davewilliams]

..agreed but Coach Nagle has the added advantage of not one, but two English lads. Can't wait to see how they get on.

[UKLaxfan]

Looks like Nick Watson will be playing #7 and be on the first line midfield as an Offensive Middie

lose two Canucks, gain two Brits. ( I know, Jak was already there, just trying to have a bit of fun)

[davewilliams]

I recommend follow @JakVav21 on Twitter to gain an idea of his training routine. Whatever success they achieve this coming season will have been well & truly earned.

"lose 2 Canucks"?, do you mean Crowley and McBride?

[jivingjohn]

Isn't Jordan McBride Scottish?

No joy in the Coaches Poll either
http://insidelacrosse.com/rankpoll/d1usila/2012-01-30

[davewilliams]

If Twitter is any guide, the team is working hard and not communicating outwards. Makes me think they could be a surprise to several opponents in the up-coming season.
What's the success-rate for the pre-season polls anyway?

4-team scrimmage last Saturday at Stony Brook;

Nick Watson scored the opening 2 goals for Stony Brook, he also had a couple of 1-on-1 quick stick opportunities later on but was denied by the Goalie.

He played minly a crease and cutting role in attack rather than his usual dodger feeder role from X.

He is definitely a NCAA Division I standard player, it's great to see a guy who came through Oldham Lacrosse Club junior system playing in the NCAA.

Mick Moore (Ex-Stockport/England) was Nick's Coach early on at Oldham and obviously did a good job.

Keep it up Nick

SBU gametracker - absolutely brilliant, like watching it live.

Stony Brook lost 11-12, having been up 5 on Siena at one stage with help from Nick Watson's 3 goals.
