(Photo: Maryland Athletics) When Maryland staved off a Johns Hopkins upset bid in the regular-season finale, head coach John Tillman said it was exactly what his team needed headed into the postseason.  Two weeks later and after the Terps survived another upset bid from their archrivals to hoist their third Big Ten Tournament championship trophy, Tillman was again happy his team got another close-game experience.  “I think that’s been good for us. We just haven’t had those situations a ...

(Photo: JHUMensLacrosse Twitter) A big day at the face-off X, some clutch goalie play in the fourth quarter, and four Johnathan Peshko goals helped Johns Hopkins to a Big Ten Semifinal upset over Rutgers on Thursday.  Peshko led the way offensively for the sixth-seeded Blue Jays’ 12-10 win over the Scarlet Knights, while Matt Narewski went 18-of-23 facing off and five of Tim Marcille’s 12 saves were made in the final frame as Hopkins took another step closer to stealing an unlikely berth i...

All of these teams have tremendous talents that show there are quality players outside of the ACC. Here’s one player from every team worth watching.

We’ve dubbed it “Midseason Week” here on InsideLacrosse.com. And, though that in some ways is silly given the unique nature of 2021, it’s shed light on just how quickly it’s coming to an end (and how many good All-American-caliber players there are). If you look at this post giving a status update on all of the conferences, you’ll see that things are being decided right in front of our eyes. The Patriot League, which only has four teams going to its postseason, spread across two div...

So it turned out there wasn’t quite as much separation this week as expected.
