Nope, I don't care if it's Albany or Loyola, and I don't care if it's noon or 3pm.  I'm going.  Who's with me?

If it's the noon game, I'm for sure going and heading back quick, because we're hosting an end-of-season late afternoon party for the HS lax team. Second game, that's problematic. Even more so since we gave up satellite and cable doesn't carry ESPNU.

How long do lacrosse games typically run?  If we are the noon game, then I might try and make it down for the game, and then back to Shea for Mets/Yanks at 4:00.

~2 hours, a bit more. The noon Princeton game, with a little bit of overtime, ended 2:15. Assuming no lightening delays, of course ;)

As DeltaOne81 said, games generally last about two hours, assuming no overtime.  If you're relying on public transportation (NJT from Princeton to Princeton Junction to Penn Station, 1 train to 7 train to Shea), I don't think you have much of a chance of being on time.  But by car, you should at least be close (though you'd then have to contend with incoming Shea traffic).

I've been waiting for this weekend all spring.  I'll be there, possibly with a friend or two.

Neither Cornell, nor Albany, nor the NCAA has updated their sites from "12 or 3" or "TBA" yet, so I wouldn't be 100% sure just yet.  But that's nice to know.  As soon as someone has some kind of independent verification, please post here.  :-)

Good point.  I think ESPNU was showing Duke-UNC as the second game at Navy, but I also think I remember a posting on laxpower contradicting one or the other of the two locations as posted by ESPNU.  So don't make your "dinky" (or whatever it's called) reservations yet.

We'll be in Madrid.  I doubt it'll be on any of the channels we'll get.

I think there's a 6 hour difference, so assuming I can find an internet cafe, maybe I can catch some of the game while we're recharging our batteries for dinner.

the laxpower bracket has us down clearly for the 12:00 noon game:

still no update on the CU or JHU athletics pages yet, but both the Albany and Gtown sites have it:
