2012 NCAA Lacrosse Tournament Open Thread: Maryland at (7) Lehigh

by Hoya Suxa on May 13, 2025 7:15 PM EDT in 2012 NCAA Men's Lacrosse Tournament

This is it, boys and girls! The end of the road!

If you're like me, you've been sitting on the couch for the last 31 hours or so watching all of existence pass by your window as you stare at furniture displaying images of things happening in faraway locales. It's okay, though; society didn't stop or anything while you turned into a large living room lawn jockey.

The closer to this weekend's bevvy of games is a solid one. Lehigh, in its first NCAA Tournament ever, puts its defense up against blue-blooded Maryland, the holder of two fancy titles and a legacy matched by only a precious few. The game will likely have a plodding pace to it, but that doesn't take too much shine off of the diamond.

ESPNU and ESPN3 take you home tonight, babycakes.

Here's how the game shakes out on the Fun Factor scale:

**MARYLAND AT LEHIGH**
AWAY	HOME	TIME	FUN FACTOR	RANK
Maryland	Lehigh	7:30	4.5856	3

This is your open thread for the game. Panda bears for President!

John Tillman with the long sleeves.

Balls hot, that’s his comfort zone.

Stripes and plaid.

Interesting field fashion choice, Lehigh.

Lehigh's dedication to brown is impressive.

Nobody show them a color wheel.

Oopsie

There goes my bracket. I had Lehigh making the semis.

Lehigh’s defensive discipline went AWOL on the last play. Don’t go for his stick, ya big silly, just get on his right hip and ride him out along GLE. If you do that and he he inside-rolls, he’s got no angle.

I hate how by being a Cuse fan, you automatically hate a handful of teams

…and that handful of teams compose of 5/8ths of the remaining teams. So it goes. At least we’ll continue to have entertaining lacrosse the next couple of rounds!
