Alex Urquhart The North Carolina Tar Heels are making their way to Durham to take on the Duke Blue Devils. This is one of the biggest rivalries in college sports. There is only, roughly, 10 miles between the two campuses and that has sparked one of the greatest bubbles of animosity between two schools, just look at college basketball when these two play each other. Now lacrosse is a bit…
WHERE: @ Notre Dame WHEN: Sunday March 16 @ 5:00 Both teams enter Sunday’s game coming off losses to Top 25 teams. Virginia dropped its first game of the season against Cornell while Notre Dame lost a tight game to Denver in a special game played in California. Both teams also match up against each other in each others second ACC game. Virginia stands at 1-0 in the conference while…
At 12:00pm, the No.3 John Hopkins Blue Jays take on the 10th-ranked Syracuse Orange. John Hopkins (5-0) looks to continue their success and take down the Orange. Attackman Wells Stanwick, brother of Steele Stanwick, leads the Blue Jays with 27 points (9G, 18A). His two other attack partners, Ryan Brown and Brandon Benn are right behind him, sitting at 2nd and 3rd on the team in points, respectively. Syracuse University…
One of the longest raging debates in college lacrosse is that of a shot clock. Both professional leagues use it, and stall warnings can be a mess in college, so why not? Four ILWT staff members (Brendan Staudt, MLL Roundtable co-host; Joe Keegan, MLL Talk panelist; Brendan Chamberlain, ILWT NCAA Lead Writer; James Simmons, ILWT NCAA Columnist) go at it with their opinions on the matter. Brendan Staudt: YES. There’s shot…
PHOTO CREDIT: CHARLES TSIANG Villanova is traveling to Maryland to take on the Terps this weekend. This will be the 8th time the teams are meeting, and Maryland is 7-0 overall against the Wildcats. Villanova is 1-3 this season, and are traveling with high hopes of upsetting the 5-0 Terps tonight. During their last meeting in 2013, Villanova was within one point of Maryland and the score was tied four…
1) Maryland (5-0)—The Terps outlasted a feisty Stony Broom team and will prepare for Villanova for a Friday night lights showdown. Senior Mike Chanenchuk (16 goals, 5 assists) continues to do the heavy lifting. Freshman sensation Matt Rambo (11 G, 4 A), who has made a seamless transition to the college game, is my current choice for rookie of the year. 2) Loyola (5-1)—What a statement win by the Greyhounds….
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ides_of_March #3 Johns Hopkins vs #10 Syracuse I like ‘Cuse to defeat Johns Hopkins in this contest. While the Orange has struggled on faceoffs, they are still an elite program that is still working out its lineup. Each week this team continue to improve and on Saturday, Randy Staats, Dylan Donohue and Kevin Rice will give the Hopkins defense fits. I’m calling for a big day for the Orange vs….
Read off the schools listed in the ACC: Duke, Notre Dame, North Carolina, Maryland, Virginia, and Syracuse. What you are looking at is 24 National Championships (including Syracuse’s vacated 1990 National Championship) and 46 National Championship appearances. At the start of the season, the hype surrounding the ACC was immense. However, several weeks in some questions have arisen. Were we fooled by the name recognition of these blue chip lacrosse…
Ohio State came into the season ranked 14th. After a 1-4 start, they have not been able to hold that high ranking. After five games they have dropped out of the Warrior D1 Media Top 20. The Buckeyes have lost close games to Hofstra, Umass, Penn State, and Johns Hopkins. Luckily for OSU, their schedule gets a little easier. They still have a chance to make to the NCAA tournament…
This Wednesday, the Quinnipiac Bobcats will make the short trip from Hamden to Hartford, Connecticut to take on the Hartford Hawks in midweek collegiate lacrosse action. Both teams are currently sitting one game below .500 and could each even out their record with a win come Wednesday. Hartford is coming off of a tough 10-11 loss against Siena this past Saturday, a game that saw four overtimes and undoubtedly fatigued…
