Notre Dame Lacrosse Enters the Tourney Ranked #2


Notre Dame beat Ohio State 16-7 in the Great Western Lacrosse League championship game to finish the season 15-0 and ranked #2. NCAA tournament brackets will be announced tonight on ESPNU. Hopefully they will be in the bracket that plays the semis at the Naval Academy so I can catch a game.

Update (Monday 5/4):  

Here are the brackets.  Notre Dame won't be playing in Maryland.  If they win their home game against the University of Maryland, they have to play the Syracuse/Siena winner in the NY bracket.
