NCAA ACC Roundup: Another All Conference Championship

May 29, 2014

Following Duke’s back-to-back championship wins, it seems there’s a solid perspective on the ACC as the Power House Conference. I think that’s accurate. Lacrosse continues to grow from east to west, meaning younger programs pop up the further west one goes in the US. Mostly MCLA and NCLL competition other than the Denver Pioneers. Let’s take a glance at the season-ending records of the ACC teams: Maryland 13-4 Duke   17-3…

Game Notes: What We Can Take Away From D-I Championship

Setting Following a lacrosse season that competed the majority of the 2014 season in winter elements, the field at M&T Bank Stadium was somewhere between 95 and 100 degrees Fahrenheit real-feel temperature. An occasional breeze was noticeable but most likely not to the players moving on the field in equipment. As every year, semifinals games are a mere two days before the championship. This gives the two winning teams a…

Carey: Myles Jones, Jordan Wolf Led Devils

What a game it was. It was all it was hyped up to be. The machine that is the Duke Blue Devils against the team from “out west,” but really from up north in Indiana. Many wanted to see a team off the east coast bring home a ring, but today that was not the case. The players that were expected to play well did, such as Myles Jones, Matt…

Blue Devils and Fighting Irish Will Be All Out Lacrosse

Everything either of these teams have worked for over this past season comes down to this game. This is the NCAA D-I Championship, one of the most recognized lacrosse events in the United States. The stage is set for a 2010 rematch between these two teams but everything is different now. For Duke, Myles Jones was not around in 2010. He has become a reliable power house of ability and…

Limestone Tops LIU Post 12-6 to Claim D-II Championship Title

The Division II Championship took place at 4pm today in Baltimore, MD. Limestone went head to head against LIUPost in a heated and aggressive match. Though the crowd was bigger for the D-III match earlier today, I personally feel the D-II game was much more intense and dramatic. Both teams were missing basic shots under high defensive pressure. Limestone led the momentum of the game, but LIU Post kept at…

Game Notes: Pioneers Could Have Beaten Duke

The final score of yesterday’s bout was 15-12 in Duke’s favor. It was not until there were less than three minutes remaining in the game that they were able to play toss-the-ball-don’t-stall. For that reason, amongst many others, I feel Denver could have and should have won. Duke and Denver went back and forth all day while still controlling some possessions and producing quality offensive opportunities for both teams. The…

Notre Dame Faces 2010 Rematch with Duke

Coach Kevin Corrigan and the Notre Dame team are familiar with playing on someone else’s home turf in front of a hostile crowd. “You know what, we were up at Hofstra last week and I think there were 37 people cheering for us in a sellout crowd of 13,000. I wanted to come to the press conference afterwards and say I apologize to all those people who wanted to see…
