This is ‘Clash of the Titans’ for a few reasons. For one, Duke is traditionally a powerhouse of lacrosse. In all 2015 preseason…

With only two games on the schedule this week a lot happened.  Both games were exciting from beginning to end and both went to overtime.  The Swarm buzzed into second place with an overtime win at home over Rochester, and Calgary is still winless as they fell in overtime again, this time to Buffalo. This weekend we have seven games, some teams playing twice.  A lot can change after Valentine’s…

Denver: What it Takes to Climb to #1

February 8, 2015

The DU Pioneers are ranked #1 in practically every preseason poll.

Denver has (P)ioneered their way to three NCAA Final Four appearances in the last four years. The team is averaging well over .740 winning percentage and has a Denver-career record…

MCLA Season Preview: Colorado Buffaloes

February 4, 2015

Many people claim that MCLA lacrosse teams are weaker or can’t compete at the NCAA level. I beg to differ. To participate in the NCAA, a team must be able to compensate for their travel (airfare, hotels, meals, transportation, missed classes, communications with professors, etc.). With that said, Colorado has become the lacrosse-mecca of western USA and the Colorado. Buffaloes are ready to show the NCAA what it’s missing. Colorado…
