For the better part of four months, many of us watched some exciting college lacrosse, whether it was on TV, online, or in person. There were good games, which included all of Championship Weekend, and there were bad games, such as low scoring affairs and of course, the horrendous winter weather. I take a look back at all 69 Division I teams and how they faired this season and what…

In part four of my year in review series, we take a look at the top goaltenders in the 2015 NCAA season. Goaltenders, in my opinion, are the most important player on a lacrosse team. They are the last line of defense, and a great one can decide if teams win close games or not. Tom Carey – Ohio State Ohio State was an up-and-down team for most of the…

And so did Lyle Thompson, along…
