National Champs are now looking like champs. It's getting ugly as Marquette was looking for it's programs first signature win.

Thanks for ruining summer, Canada.

Nah, Nova was top 10 when MU stomped them at Valley Fields, 11-3.  That's the win that's keeping the NCAA at-large bid hopes (barely) alive even after losses to Notre Dame, Duke, and Denver.

Marquette is now 0-12 against those three, though.

Interesting tidbit about MU Lacrosse (and maybe it's already been discussed on Scoop), but when MU decided to go with men's lacrosse they were very close to having men's volleyball instead.  What it came down to was that non-revenue sports at Marquette are looked at as marketing tools for the school, and lacrosse fits a target audience that could bring in more and possibly higher end students to the school.  Whereas volleyball would be traveling to places like Chicago (already get a lot of students from the area), Fort Wayne, IN (probably not a ton of kids whose heads would be turned by an MU athletics team being in town), Columbus, OH (maybe get a few extra kids from there?), Muncie, IN (see Fort Wayne), etc., you now have the team heading out northeast where kids who can afford an MU tuition (lacrosse is a pretty expensive sport) are seeing the team and starting to look into where Marquette University is, etc.

Plus, volleyball is mega-girly whereas lacrosse dudes drink beer, etc.

Yeah I only wish more volleyball guys would trip out on LSD and punch more female cops in the face.  Takes a real man to do that!

MU had a whole strategic plan with lacrosse and You are  correct it was to attract kids from East Coast high and other high end schools across the country.  Bottom line is they have done that.

Funny thing is there is barely nobody that has D1 men's volleyball.

I'm very aware, I'm just skewed because I played in high school and coach. Illinois is like a top 3 state for boys volleyball. At least top 5 I should say.

Not much of a lacrosse fan, but it's always nice to see a successful MU team. I totally understand MU's thinking. Seems like to certainly opens the door wider to the East Coast. Not a bad move.

Final 14-9. We play the winner of Denver/Providence Saturday for an automatic bid.

We now have 10 wins. No bad losses (ND, Denver, Duke and Ohio State). RPI is 15.

Incredible achievement in our 4th year with a team.

I don't follow the team that closely but do you think Amplo gets offered a big time job this offseason?

Most likely he will be offered Princeton.

I think it would be naive to think that other programs won't come calling. What he has done in such a short period of time is almost unheard of.

My sense is that the new indoor practice facility that is being built went a long way in showing Joe how dedicated Marquette is to making lacrosse have sustained success.

I don't think we lose him...just yet.
