I think the Syracuse fan can accept Army but the Syracuse fan whose used to stamping their trip to the Final Four on Memorial Day is a little confused about Bryant.
A tough-to-penetrate zone defense employed by upstart Bryant Sunday night led to the No. 2 seed Orange’s 10-9 demise in the NCAA Tournament first round, its earliest home playoff exit since 2010.
Bryant kept pace for the first half against Syracuse in the 2013 NCAA Tournament before fading in the second half. This year the Bulldogs strung two halves of near flawless lacrosse together in upsetting the second-seeded Orange.
