I thought—more than a month later—Syracuse’s loss to Maryland in the 2011 NCAA quarterfinals wouldn’t sting as much, but time hasn’t healed this wound.
The No. 4-ranked Syracuse men’s lacrosse team owns a 12-1 record—the only blemish an 11-6 setback to Cornell on April 12. Sounds good, except the Orange have been criticized because seven of those wins were by two goals or less.
