Very good. No question about it. He has had a great 4 1/2 years here, and he truly deserves it after all he has been through.

Very deserved. Good article from GoDuke:

Similar to the first, but a little more info.

Well deserved... For all what he and the other seniors had to go through the past few years which I fully believe never happen to now winning the national championship and Crotty winning the T Award. Couldn't have scripted a better end.

FYI, there are many more inputs re Ned Crotty's superb honor on the recent Lax National Championship thread.

Congrats Ned! The announcers were saying during the UVA game that Clausen (?) and Crotty would be going at it all game and they were basically the 2 "real" finalists for the award so us winning that game may have sealed the deal.

Couldn't have scripted a better end.

I could have: my classmates getting their 5th year of eligibility and winning in 2007...and then us winning again in 2010. I was at both games in '05 and '07 as we lost by one goal to JHU. Very painful, so that storybook ending would have been better for me just b/c I felt their pain so much.

It was cool seeing Dino there with his dad as we won this past year tho. Too bad he/they couldn't have gotten one of their own. That was one of the best senior classes and attack combos in recent memory for Duke (Danowski + Greer).

Anyways, congrats Ned and Duke Lax Seniors. Double repeat next year???
