congratulations to hopkins for finally getting what has been an elusive title for them.

but let's drag out the negative. last year, when everyone was hyper-patriotic and critical of syracuse for outperforming navy, as if that was somehow "unamerican" to do on memorial day, several people criticized a syracuse player for running up and immediately grabbing the trophy. . . did anyone notice a member of hopkins' COACHING STAFF do exactly the same thing this year?

you win the championship when time expires; you get the trophy when the NCAA presents it to you.
