Mods please do not move right away
Syracuse may have won the title in the Mens Lacrosse but Navy gave them a run for there money.
How fitting a memorial day game then Navy playing lights out and battled till the very end with there starting goal keeper on the sideline watching the last 5 minutes do to injury and having a freshman come in his place.
That changed the game down the stretch and gave syracuse and edge to put it in prosepective think about having a superbowl with your star qb goes down injured and a rookie has to come in and try to win the game in a very close tight game.
The midshipmen kept battling anyways and showed the world what future leaders the military will have.
Realize that all the seniors are being shiped off tomorrow or within the week to serve on a ship; start flight training or where ever there assignment maybe.
So I like to give them props for one of the gutiest performances I seen on a lacrosse field.
I was rooting for them all weekend and it would have been even more of a story book ending if they had won.
