See where your favorite teams stand heading into the postseason: 1) Duke (12-2)—The Blue Devils will take on Syracuse for the third time in less than a year. Wonder how these new rivals will treat each other going forward. Brendan Fowler could be in for a fight as Frank Daddio and the Orange faceoff unit have played at a high level since the ‘Syracuse Slaughter’ a month ago. 2) Loyola…
If we look at where the Nittany Lions were 5 years ago, it definitely did not look like they would be as successful as they are today. They finished out the 2009 season with coach Glenn Thiel, and a 9-5 overall record.

Many games this weekend were neck and neck until teams took advantage of opportune situations. Virginia – 9 Notre Dame – 18 The Fighting Irish came out with a very mobile and inclusive offense full of assists, offensive rotation and off-ball movement. They…
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….
Denver University and Penn State will meet for the sixth time in program history, and Denver has won three of the previous matches, while the Nittany Lions have won two. The Nittany Lions are amidst the highest ranking that the program has ever had, and are only looking to increase their ranking.
