D-Fly and Dixie return with another episode to welcome back the Ivy League to the college lacrosse family. We’ve missed you. In a weekend which features Ancient Eight squads in two of the six Top 20 matchups, they check in with Yale coach Andy Shay and give a whip-around preview of each of the Ivy League lacrosse teams.
In this week’s interview, Dixie sits down with Shay to learn about how they managed to survive COVID, the Yale alumni network, program culture, new facilities and recruiting, how mentors like Bob Shillinglaw and Greg Cannella have shaped Shay’s style, the 2022 team and its leaders. Of course, they also tackle the all-important issues of Handsome Dan’s status and the best pizza spots in the New Haven area.
Mark and Dan also talk about Dixie’s IT issues, how a parent’s love trumps all allegiances, why no one should get too high or too low from one result in February and much more.
