I just got back from watching the men's lacrosse team beat (soon to be previously) #1 UVA 7 -6 in overtime! They played to a full house in Koskinen Stadium, with many alumni on campus for the big reunion weekend. Supposedly Brodhead was there, but Nifong was no where to be seen!

Meanwhile, over in chapel hill, our baseball team beat (soon to be previously) #2 or 3 depending on the poll, carolina 9 - 3 in the first game of a double header. We lead early in the second game 2 - 1 (3rd inning).

Yes, a glorious day in Durham!

Game winner was a great behind the back fling on an assist from the coach's son. Great, great game.

Also, the Duke Women's golf team has opened up a commanding lead after 2 rounds at the ACC Championship.

Just got done watching the Duke-Maryland game a few minutes ago. We won a thriller, 98-96, in overtime. I think it will go down as a classic:)

So, add that to the list for the day.

The Duke-MD classic game from 2001.

Ozzie: I am incredibly jealous you got to see the lax game. Go Duke!

It was free to all who wanted to go. All you had to do was be here! Distance shouldn't be an obstacle...

These LAX games are pure, feel good heaven. Anybody who isn't getting to them is missing unadulterated joy!
Love, Ima

as they won the 2nd game 7-4. Shame. I believe we lead the race 10.5 to 9.5, with another point on the way today courtesy of the women's golf team.
The men's golf team will be favored to win another point next weekend. Fingers crossed.

Both have more then enough talent and ability to win a NCAA title in their respective sport...they are taking some of the pain I felt from both of our Basketball teams...them being national contenders should shut up the people who say "Duke is good only in basketball"......oh and by the way our Women's lacrosse team(ranked 3rd in the nation) is ranked HIGHER then our men's lacrosse team (ranked 4th in the nation)....

My understanding is that almost all of our scholarship teams are routinely in the top 20. While Alleva rightly gets some heat, it is hard to complain with the results.

The lacrosse overtime behind-the-back/head goal was #3 in the ESPN Sportscenter countdown of plays of the week.

I believe we started the day tied at 9.5 Y'all should pick up a point in women's golf and we picked up a point in women's tennis to end the day tied at 10.5
