Syracuse at Notre Dame, noon, ESPNU Each of these teams is coming off a big win. Syracuse claimed its best win of the year last weekend with a 19-7 destruction of Duke, the two-time defending national champions. Meanwhile, the Fighting Irish shutout Ohio State 9-0. It’s a battle between No. 1 and No. 2 and with about a month left in the regular season, this one should be a dandy…
Syracuse and Notre Dame Face Heavyweight Bout
No. 1 vs. No. 2. With about a month left in the regular season, it doesn’t get much better, especially considering how close the two Syracuse-Notre Dame games were last season. Each game was decided by one goal and another classic could be in store on Saturday. The Orange will travel to South Bend, Indiana to play its first true road game of the year. Both teams are coming off…

MLL Training Camp Preview: New York Lizards
The one big thing that will help the New York Lizards going into training camp and the start of the season is basically their whole team will be there.

Ohio State: Time to Hit Reset Button
April 10, 1984. That was the only other time Notre Dame’s lacrosse program had shut out the opposing team. Mount Union was outmatched 15-0 that day. March 21, 2015. Ohio State loses 9-0 at Arlotta Stadium in South Bend, Ind. So here’s the deal. I’m going to make this portion of my column short and sweet, because being shutout is pretty self explanatory and I’m not one to beat a…
