College Lacrosse Weekend Preview: All Chaos Conference?

April 15, 2016

With so much drama in the ACC, it’s kinda hard getting into the NCAA Tournament scene. But they, somehow, some way, keep coming up with interesting storylines every single day. I’m no Snoop Dogg, but if you use your imagination and tinker the first four lines of Gin And Juice with ACC references, it’s actually a pretty good summary of the conference’s season. Except Notre Dame, who’s sitting comfortably as…

NCAA Bracketology V1: There’s Still Time

April 12, 2016

Is it too early to start predicting brackets? Some may say yes, others the opposite. Joe Lunardi already has a way too early 2017 NCAA Basketball Tournament Bracketology, and we just got done the hoops tournament last week! Teams don’t know if they’ll lose someone to either the NBA Draft or to transfers or even who they might gain via transfers and commitments. But in lacrosse, we have less than…

College Lacrosse Weekend Preview: T-Minus 29 Days Until Selection Sunday

April 8, 2016

We’re starting the final stretch of the season with under a month until Selection Sunday for the NCAA Tournament. Unlike last year, it’s a very wide open field, with only two ACC teams in the top 15 in RPI. Some early Bracketology projections have Notre Dame and Syracuse in, with some even including Virginia. Except for Notre Dame, the ACC is on the bubble for some spots, with UNC and…

College Lacrosse Weekend Preview: Meet In The Conference Room

March 31, 2016

Alright, so some conferences have already started their conference schedule. But this weekend, nearly every team that’s playing will have a conference game, including the CAA, which opens up conference play on Saturday. For some teams, it’s a chance to get that top seed in their respective conference tournaments en route to a possible automatic bid. For other teams, the road to the postseason begins now. One loss might be the…

College Lacrosse Weekend Preview: Show Me What You Got

March 11, 2016

It’s time for some teams to prove one of two things. Either they’re contenders when May comes around, or they still need some work to do. It’s been about a month since the season got underway, and we’ve seen Towson, Hofstra, and even Rutgers rise into the Top 20, while Duke, Virginia, and Georgetown have been disappointments thus far. But is this the biggest weekend of the season? Sure there’s been…

College Lacrosse Weekend Preview: This Is Madness!

February 20, 2016

Madness? THIS. IS. FEBRUARY LACROSSE! If you don’t know what movie that sort of is from, it’s from 300 (and you should probably watch at least that scene right now). We have a great slate of Division I games this weekend, including six of the top ten teams in the nation taking on another ranked team. Many of these games are on Saturday, so set aside your Saturday. SATURDAY #1…

2016 College Lacrosse Season Preview: Loyola Greyhounds

January 20, 2016

Overview: Following their 2012 season, the Loyola Greyhounds Men’s Lacrosse program felt immense triumph. The minuscule private university out of Baltimore defeated an experienced Maryland squad en route to their first National Championship in program history. Four years post-2012 and things have changed greatly for the Greyhounds. Following two straight seasons with first round losses in the NCAA tournament, Loyola missed the tournament in 2015, finishing with a 7-8 record,…

2016 College Lacrosse Season Preview: Loyola Greyhounds

January 2, 2016

Overview: Loyola would like to forget the end of the 2015 season all together if they do not believe in bulletin board material.  The end of last season came at the hands of West Point, in the Patriot League Tournament.  This was the earliest end to a season at Loyola that one can remember, not making a single game in May.  The seniors that won a National Championship during their…

Greyhounds Look To Rebound After Tough End to 2015

September 19, 2015

The Loyola Greyhounds ended 2015 in a rather disappointing state, considering that the senior class had won the school’s first national championship during their tenure. An even record of 8-8 and ending the season on April 21st with a loss to Army. The Greyhounds looks to rebound with vigor to change their fortunes in 2016. Loyola loses a big piece of the puzzle with the graduation of Nikko Pontrello. Pontrello…

NCAA Team Reviews: Loyola Greyhounds

July 7, 2015

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 fared this season and what…
