Syracuse overcame injuries to top offensive threats Emily Hawryschuk and Megan Carney during the season, but its depth got pushed to the brink when Emma Tyrrell received two yellow cards in the first half and had to sit out for the remainder of the game.

2. Maryland and Virginia’s 2019 quarterfinal ended in controversy. The former ACC rivals renew the rivalry today at 1 p.m. on ESPN2. A look at how they got here:

• Alex Rode, the hero of Virginia’s 2019 title, comes up clutch again in semifinal win over UNC

• Jared Bernhardt’s dominant season for Maryland continued in a semifinal rout of Duke.

And setting the stage for the game:

• Patrick Stevens on how Maryland and Virginia used continuity to reach the the final game.

• All-American Petey LaSalla was another hero from Virginia’s 2019 title, but Nelson Rice looks at how Maryland’s unit will be a big factor.

3. Per usual, the NCAA Division III men’s championship delivered as RIT beat Salisbury 15-14 in double overtime to win the title for the first time in school history.

5. Charlotte North set the NCAA single-season goals record, finishing with 102 after her six-goal championship performance. How good is Charlotte North? This quote from Virginia Tech goalie Angie Benson tells you all you need to know.

Ive never been more proud to be in @charlotteocho8’s highlight reel. Even if she scored every single ball she shot on me, she deserves everything her way
