Cavs 2-0 To Start Season
The Virginia Cavaliers are continuing to rebuild this team. Last year they had lost Steele Stanwick and Chris Bocklet who had contributed to the Cavaliers win. The line up for the Cavaliers has changed tremendously. They have a lot of new faces on the team. Nick O’Reilly has to be a big factor. He has not played due to a year suspension in 2011. In the 2011 tournament, O’Reily had turned…

After losing a close game to Denver a week ago, Duke was looking to rebound against a very talented Notre Dame team to gain their first win of the season.

Talbot Blog: Rockhoppers Keep Rolling
I like playing at the Du Burns arena in Baltimore. Even though it has a lot of weird little annoying things like the blinding windows and the awful locker room layout, it also has a lot going for it. The turf is one of the best in the league, the fans show up to games and seem to know about lacrosse and, most importantly, we are 2-0 in the building…

For the Albany Great Danes, their season couldn’t have started any better; beating Syracuse. The Danes went into the game as underdogs against a historically great Syracuse team. From the beginning of the game, Albany set a serious tone, going up 4-0 to start. Perhaps the biggest reason for the Danes’ win; the Thompsons. The three Thompsons combined for 10 of Albany’s 16 goals and accounted for a total 18…
