The Surge Of Lacrosse

Posted May 16, 2009
The numbers kept mounting as the 21st century evolved—five losses to Virginia, six to Maryland and nine to arch-rival Duke even as the Blue Devils’ program was distracted and immersed in a national scandal. Carolina’s once-vaunted lacrosse program could simply not win a game against an ACC foe. Finally, the Tar Heels popped Maryland 16-10 one week ago in the semifinals of the ACC Tournament. A five-year non-winning streak in the ACC and a 13-year ACC Tournament victory drought finally ended. (Rams Club)
