Fri Apr 23 2021 | Patrick Stevens | College PHOTO BY RICH BARNES / SYRACUSE ATHLETICS Tanner Cook scored twice in UNC's 21-9 win over Syracuse. Joe Breschi thought it was time for a reward. His North Carolina men’s lacrosse team was more than two months into a season filled with pandemic protocols. It was coming off its first two losses of the season, an overtime setback at Duke followed by an 18-16 stumble at home against Virginia. So what better time to show some appreciation than in the middle of an only-in-2021 road trip, a one-day, up-and-back to Syracuse? The Tar Heels met for breakfa...

Here’s the latest from around the lacrosse world: 1.  Emily Hawryschuk is coming back.

At 75 minutes, 57 seconds, it was the longest Division I game since Princeton edged Yale 10-9 in five overtimes on March 24, 2012. “I’m young, but I think it took years off my life,” Marquette coach Andrew Stimmel said. “I thought our staff did a great job of staying calm on the outs...

Wed Apr 21 2021 | Patrick Stevens | College PHOTO BY JOHN STROHSACKER One of this season’s blessings is that there aren’t nearly as many what-ifs associated with it as a year ago, when the pandemic wiped out the final seven weeks of the regular season, plus the NCAA tournament. Which isn’t to say there aren’t things to wonder about. Just how the Ivy League’s teams would have fared is something we’ll never know; Penn’s return to action on Friday at Division III Cabrini aside.

It was hard to tell who was having more fun Saturday, dads or their kids. "Honestly, I think I'm having more fun than the kids," said Samuel De Los Santos, who, along with his brother, Ernest Baskin, brought their sons and daughters to the All Pro Dad Experience at TIAA Bank Field. The event featured football practice drills and family fun activities intended to strengthen the bond between fathers and their children.
