I don't think Notre Dame has ever even finished in top 10 in attendance for college lacrosse.  The closest year I could find a top ten (actually 11) was 2014.

I think the 3 hotbeds of lacrosse are CNY, LI and Baltimore.  I won't count Ohio State because I am pretty sure they counted the people that came to their spring football game to get that impressive number.  But to answer your question, Army, Virginia, UNC, Denver, Marquette, Villanova and Princeton.
