#5 Georgetown beat unranked Loyola today. But #2 Duke hammered #3 UVA by a score of 17-2 and #8 Navy beat #4 Army by a score of 12 to 9. We will definitely be ranked #4 on Monday and hopefully #3.

WOW, 17-2!!!???This makes that loss to Duke not seem quite as bad as it did at first. They appear to be scary good this season.

Does anyone have any insight into why we seem to have such a hard time scoring goals? I'm a lacrosse fan, but I'm still very much a naif when it comes to the game. But we outshot Loyola 50-something to 20, yet only managed 7 goals. Meanwhile, teams like Duke and Hopkins regulalrly score 15 or more against weaker teams. I know part of this is pace - we have a very deliberate offense. But it seems like deliberate is synonomous with ineffective in this case. Do we not have the athletes on attack that Duke has? Or is it purely a result of the system?
It looks like Hopkins and Duke have seperated themselves from the rest of the pack this year. We've got as good a resume as anyone after those two. With a good draw, we should have a good shot at the final four, and from there, who knows?

Just so you know, Duke had a tough time with Loyola as well, squeaking out a 6-5 win.

WOW! That's huge. I'd like to see our program move deep into the national tournament this year.

Very impressive! Let's hope they can keep this up and make a run at the title this season!

Big chance with 'Cuse and Princeton down this year to get to that Final Four.
But the Hoyas have to win out. UMass on the road could bite us.
