Inside Scoop: A Lacrosse Spring Break

By ZACH PALMER | March 28, 2013

As you may have known, we suffered a little bit of a setback last week when we traveled to Syracuse for a match up in the Carrier Dome. Although it is always a tough place to play, we came out flat and were just never able to recover from the deficit. It marked our second loss on the season, putting us at a 5-2 record. The bus ride home was long and quiet, but we couldn’t dwell on the loss because we had Virginia the next weekend at M & T Bank Stadium, the home of the world champion Baltimore Ravens.

Despite everyone being tired and sore, not to mention the fact that it was midterm week for most of the team, we pulled together and worked hard throughout the whole week in game planning.
