I'd just recommend that we put [LAX] rather than [OT] in the subject line so it's easier to identify the lacrosse threads.  I imagine with no NHL playoffs I'll get sucked into lacrosse more than usual this year.

 Duke is shown as 4-0 on LaxPower, with wins over Butler, UMBC, VMI, and now Maryland.

Nice note on the LaxPower Power Rankings, Cornell is presently #1.  Not at all meaningful since this is a computer ranking that requires a number of games, but always nice to see CU at #1.[/q]

The LaxPower Power Rankings are a festering pile of shite. I explained why on the LaxPower forums a few seasons back. Alas, I think those postings have rotted away into the the ether.

 You can do a search for LynahFan and see if they pop up, but I don't think they will.

But their score file is useful for calculating better rankings.
