As the NCAA winter sports seasons wrap up, lacrosse has the opportunity to step into the limelight. What’s happened is less important than what’s next.
Monmouth and Bryant are the current favorites to win their league titles, but the margin of success and failure are extremely tight in 2021. LIU (4-1 NEC) and Saint Joseph’s (5-0 NEC) still have to play the Bulldogs (3-1) in the NEC. Monmouth is scheduled to play Marist on Tuesday, but that game remains in doubt due to Marist’s ongoing pause. Jacksonville is 4-0 in the SoCon but has not played High Point or Richmond yet. Stay in the hunt. Make the next game the most important one of the season. This is when the fun begins.

Bubba Fairman has scored 10 goals this season seven in his last three games.
Maryland hadn’t found itself down more than three goals all season. So what was the Terrapins’ response to Michigan scoring the first five goals on Saturday? Try depositing 16 in a row against the Wolverines.
The Terrapins have unleashed these sorts of barrages before. The second half against Johns Hopkins. The fourth quarter at home against Rutgers. Parts of the second and third quarters against Penn State in College Park. The third and fourth quarters at Ohio State.

The buzz around the Hofstra men’s lacrosse program has been around Ryan Tierney, and rightfully so. The senior has 48 points through eight games so far in 2021, showcasing more than a few highlight-reel goals.
Tierney could be the key to a Colonial Athletic Association title for the Pride, but this team is much more than its star player and that was on display in Friday night’s matchup with UMass. Tierney chipped in three goals and three assists, but it was the efforts on one of his teammates that proved vital.
