You are in for a whale of a weekend of lacrosse! Two conference championships will be decided this weekend, those championships taking the form of the ACC's deathtrap and the utter chaos that is the Patriot League. Then there are a bunch of games that will determine home field advantage for next week's tournaments, like Mercer-Richmond. Throw in some tasty rivalry games like Cornell-Princeton and Johns Hopkins-Maryland (with their shiny new wooden crab) and you're already locked and loaded, in prime NCAA Tournament mode two weeks in advance.
To get you set for this exciting week of lacrosse, we've prepared a special edition of THE FACEOFF for you. We're not only setting up the big games of the week, but also giving you a look into the near-term conference tournament showdowns.
