Dialed In: Your Lacrosse Fix For Friday, Feb. 17

Good morning. Here’s the latest from around the lacrosse world:

1. A wild Thursday night of women’s lacrosse featured a top-20 upset.

Army knocked off its highest-ranked opponent in program history, defeating No. 19 Jacksonville 12-10 behind five goals from freshman Brigid Duffy and a program-record 19 saves by Lacey Bartholomay.

Elsewhere, Izzy Scane scored 10 (yes, 10) goals to tie her own single-game program record, as Northwestern beat Notre Dame 18-14. It was just one after another for the Scane Train, who appears to be just fine following an ACL tear.

MORE SCORES

Niagara def. Eastern Michigan 18-4
Binghamton def. Pitt 11-5
Siena def. Colgate 11-7
Kent State def. Duquesne 16-15

2. Unfortunate injury news for Syracuse.

Abigail Lagos, a 2022 national champion at UIndy and seventh-year graduate transfer with the Orange, has sustained a season-ending injury.

Lagos did not play in the Orange’s opening game.

3. Is Johns Hopkins back?

The answer isn’t straightforward, but for the first time in a few years, the answer isn’t overtly negative. Hopkins is 2-1 after Tuesday night’s loss to North Carolina, but its resume looks better than it has in some time.
