Nearly a year ago, after the Georgetown men’s lacrosse team had eased some of the sting of its 4-10 finish on Senior Day by routing St. John’s to earn its only Big East win, Hoyas head coach Kevin Warne got a sense early that things might be different in 2018. Shortly after that season-ending 14-4 victory, Georgetown’s juniors already were looking ahead, envisioning a turn in the road they would lead. www.uslaxmagazine.com/college/men/georgetown-lacrosse-and-the-anatomy-of-a-turnaround

A great defensive first half, 6-3 Hoyas lead. 30 more minutes men for the big upset!

Hoyas lost a four goal lead entering the 4th. Only need one at this point.

Very tough loss. That said, a terrific year for the boys.
Well done gentlemen.

Very tough loss. That said, a terrific year for the boys. Well done gentlemen. Tiring of settling for tough losses. This University has settled for more than its share of such over the last decade.

Agee wholeheartedly, but you have to walk before you can run.

The positive is that we could have absolutely won this game against a strong opponent.
The negative is that we absolutely SHOULD have won this game against a strong opponent.
Now we need to build on this and move forward next season.

Caught the last 40 minutes of regulation and then overtime, for the first (and only) time I saw them play all year. Fantastic defensive work, including some fine saves by Marrocco, to go over 30 minutes without allowing a goal, which just makes the fact of the eventual blown lead and loss all the more exasperating. Credit to the senior class for the turnaround from last year, and time for the program to continue this year's progress.

Great effort. I truly thought they had the win, but #13 Marr got off too many left side rolling goals. I felt that G'town outplayed JH but came up short which can happen in soccer and LAX. To correct one of your previous posts, the Women's Soccer team won both the Big East championship and the Big East tournament. So we have BEAST champs in both men's and women's soccer, men's and women's golf and LAX. Very nice year on the Hill. Congrats to all. I was overwhelmed with our goalies play.

Need to recruit off this season.

Hopefully we can carry momentum into next season. Lax recruiting is done so early may take a couple of yrs at least to see any impact on quality of incoming class. Certainly fantastic effort by existing team.
i would think most top recruits would have written us off as a top destination, it will be interesting to see if the miraculous turn around changes that.
