Ten years ago, the men’s lacrosse team beat Syracuse 10—9 to
claim its first national championship since 1953. The men fell just short
of a replay — what would have been the team’s seventh title
in the intervening decade —this year, losing to Syracuse 13—12,
but their female counterparts kept tradition alive, beating Georgetown
12—7 to earn their second NCAA title. For more on today’s Tigers,
