1. F*ck Duke.
2. Putting aside the hurt of this loss for a moment, the game of lacrosse would have been hard-pressed to ask for a better weekend than this past one. Three out of four games decided in overtime. Wow.
3. Out of 16 games this season, slightly less than one-third (5) were played against two teams (Duke and Virginia). As it turned out, we would have gotten Virginia a third time had we advanced. I'm not sure what, if anything, can/should be done about this, but at the same time, for those of us who want to see the game grow, I don't think this is the greatest scenario. Worth noting in this regard that the Penn/Yale matchup was also the third time those teams have played this season.
4. Did I mention, f*ck Duke?
