They will throw their gloves, sticks and helmets in the air and crash together into a celebratory dog pile. There will be high-fives, pictures and interviews and eventually, the winners will take their brand-new national championship trophy and parade it around Lincoln Financial Field in a victory lap.
But the real winner on Memorial Day -- when No. 4 seed Denver and sixth-seeded Maryland meet to decide the national championship (1 p.m. ET on ESPN2) -- will be lacrosse.
The sport can't lose, because the trophy will come to rest in either Denver or Maryland, one representing uncharted territory for a sport long chastised for its geographic exclusiveness, the other one of the game's hotbeds but bereft of a title for 40 long years.
Which will be better?
