The wait is over: No. 1 men’s lacrosse roars past Notre Dame to secure first national title since 2001
CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va. — The quarter-century wait is over. After 25 years, Princeton has returned to the mountaintop of college lacrosse. On Memorial Day, No. 1 men’s lacrosse (17–2 overall, 5–1 Ivy League) defeated 2-seeded and No. 3 ranked Notre Dame (13–3, 3–1 Atlantic Coast Conference) 16–9. This marks the program’s seventh overall title and the first since 2001. It is also the first team NCAA championship for Princeton athletics since men’s and women’s fencing won the NCAA combined title in 2013.
The magical season for No. 1 men’s lacrosse (16–2 overall, 5–1 Ivy League) will last for two more nights. On the back of a historic 20-save performance from senior goalkeeper Ryan Croddick, the Tigers went on a 7–1 scoring run starting at the end of the second quarter and stretching into the middle of the third to upend No. 13 Duke (11–4, 1–3 Atlantic Coast Conference) 14–7 and advance to their first title game in 24 years.
With 2001 champions watching, No. 1 men’s lacrosse chases a return to the title game
Twenty-five years ago, B.J. Prager ’02 was named the Most Outstanding Player on Princeton’s last national championship team. On Memorial Monday, Prager and the 2001 team will be honored at midfield during the national championship game halftime, a game No. 1 men’s lacrosse (15–2 overall, 5–1 Ivy League) has a chance to play in for the first time since 2002, when Prager’s senior year team lost the championship to Syracuse, 13–12.
