I was pretty saddened when I read this on Lax.com for the first time on Sunday (just the score). I was already confused that Springfield had to travel to New Jersey so that an un-ranked team could host an NCAA playoff game against a top-10 Nationally ranked team..but oh well.

Obviously Stevens Tech IS a program to be respected, whether or not that changes the legitimacy of making them the home team here is yet to be decided.. I'm not saying the home advantage had that much to do with them winning.

I couldn't make it to the game, but someone here has said Springfield didn't adjust to the Duck's style of play, or something along those lines.

I really hope that IS the case, because I would have a hard time accepting Stevens is just simply a better lacrosse team..

upsets are fun in the playoffs-- but not when your future team is on the short end :/
