ALL B1G teams are ranked in the top 20. I watched UVA v JHU last week in a midweek game that used to be an SRO weekend game in Baltimore. I was disappointed to see this game so poorly attended because it was a high scoring shootout. There are far more D1 caliber players now than 20 years ago. Lacrosse is the fastest growing sport in the USA and I hope NU has the foresight to recognize this. NU has a great women's program and maybe a successful men's program could be established. Notre Dame and Duke with similar academic standards and costs are currently #2 and #3 in the polls. UVA remains #1 because of their offense but they have defensive problems that could be problematic in the NCAAs.
NU should be able to work around Title 9 and find an additional 12.6 women's scholarships to allow adding men's lacrosse. The infrastructure is already in place unlike hockey.
I will keep beating this old horse
