University of Maryland Defenseman Max Schmidt Clears the Crease

April 4, 2011 / Lacrosse Playground /


Saturday the Terps knocked off the Cavaliers led by senior Ryan Young who came away with six points. The Terps also had a strong showing on the defensive side of the ball. Defenders Ryder Bohlander, Brett Schmidt, Max Schmidt and Niko Amato held UVA to just seven goals and played aggressive all day.

Below is a video of Max Schmidt clearing the crease! He ends up wiping out middie Colin Briggs. Ultimately, two flags were thrown and UVA went two men-up.

    the first one wasn’t clean it was a hit to the back but i feel like the second one shouldn’t have been called a flag

    I think it was a clean hit. It was a little high but I don’t think he got it in the head. I def agree Maryland’s defense got real angry towards the end.

    Penalty because it was a blow to the head. Legal hit or not, anything to the head this year will result, in the very least, as a 1 min penalty. If it is deemed an illegal body check then it will be at least a 1 min non releasable. That is how it was explained to me and my coaching staff this year.

    hands were together quite nicely, and the hit was clean…until he extended his hands out.
