MD with only 7 home games? Wow.

MD with only 7 home games? Wow.

6 plus a 1st round NCAA game.

They played ND in Atlanta.

You would think with Syracuse’s history and the clear passion of the fans that we would be tops in recruiting every year. However we loose a number of high ranked players from ny and the east coast to Duke, North Carolina, ND and the ivies. Do you think it is based on academics, nil or something else?

If you grow up on Long Island, would you rather spend 4 years in Upstate NY, or try something different and live in MD/VA/NC?

Of course with the portal, a lot of these kids go away for 1-2 years and end up transferring back up North.

Well are they going to college or to the beach?

I haven't watched the whole thing, but a clip shows them ragging on Hopkins which is pretty funny.

I don't think it is just one thing. I believe it's a combination of academics, economics(cost), location, and now nil. As a parent who has put 2 kids through private college( youngest graduates next week), cost and quality of education really matter. Add in job networking and assorted other things it really is a complicated decision for many.

I'm surprised that UVa is that close to UMD. That's why I reacted "Wow."

do they include people sitting on the grass? I don't know if "lawn seats" are free or a discounted ticket price.

Yes. You have to have a general admission ticket to sit on the berm at Klöckner and, I would believe, ND's Arlotta.

With Syracuse’s (and Lemoyne/OCC) national championship pedigree, SU’s YOY considerable attendance over every other program each season, and general engagement in the area from youth/HS/masters lacrosse being played at a high level you’d think the city would start branding itself as “Lacrosse City” like Portland or St Louis does as “Soccer City USA”
