Marquette men's lacrosse team is driven to win

Strangers in a strange land, led by a coach who believed in his ragtag collection of undersized, underappreciated, under-the-radar players and got them to believe in themselves.

I know we get an amazingly few free JS online reads but this was a really good read. I really recommend it, great talk about MU, the players, and the coach.
Definitely give this a read today while on the toilet.

  • I prefer a team that's eligible, not paid for

I love this quote from Coach Amplo:

"I told them, 'You guys are a bunch of nobodies. The only people who wanted you was us. But now you're here with an opportunity to beat the team that didn't want you,'" Amplo said. "I said, 'The only time you were on North Carolina's campus is when you paid to go to their lacrosse camp. You paid for their coaches' vacations.'
You actually have a degree from Marquette?

Quote from: muguru
No...and after reading many many psosts from people on this board that do...I have to say I'm MUCH better off, if this is the type of "intelligence" a degree from MU gets you. It sure is on full display I will say that.
