Hmmmm.... Albany will get exposed.  UVa will surge back towards the top and is still a favorite.  Penn's schedule is pathetic.  They will have a tough time in the Ivy League.  

Army will be a good test for Cornell.  I think we learn a lot more about ourselves after Army and Duke.

[Josh '99]

Amidst all the publicity and the season cancellation and all that, I think I'd forgotten that Duke is also a very good lacrosse team.

Penn's first big test of the year today, losing to Bucknell this afternoon 9-5.

[Jacob '06]

So what do you think the odds are of us making it to Baltimore this year?

[Ben Rocky '04]

So I guess the real tests this year will be Army, Syracuse and Duke, but I don't believe Dartmouth or Princeton will be a push-overs.

I'd be at Army rooting on our Big Red Laxers, but for it conflicting with the hockey playoff games. They'll just have to tough it out and play without me. :-)

Loyola leading Duke 4-1 after 10 minutes.  5th-year face-off guy who graduated Yale last year dominating the X for Loyola.

[Al DeFlorio]

5-1 Loyola over Duke at the half.  Loyola goalie playing out of his mind, but Loyola controlling the ball much of the half.

Tape replay on CSTV Sunday at 10:30am.

[Josh '99]

They're playing this late at night?  That's kinda odd, isn't it?

Edit:  7-6 Duke with a minute and change left.

Edit:  7-7 with 1:13 left.

Game is in San Diego.  1:37 left.  Duke 7, Loyola 6.  Loyola with ball

[Josh '99]

Quick two goals, 8-7 Loyola.

[peterg]

Final.  Loyola 8, Duke 7.  Are we #1?

[Josh '99]

[quote peterg]Final.  Loyola 8, Duke 7.  Are we #1?[/quote]We were #3 and won on the road at #9 Army.  Duke was #1 and lost to unranked Loyola at a neutral site.  Georgetown was #2 and lost at home against #12 Syracuse.

Yeah, we might be, now that you mention it.
