It saddens me to say that my hometown team, the Syracuse Orange were defeated today by the Villanova Wildcats in the opening game of the Big East Tournament. This pretty much defeats any chance of the Orange getting in the NCAA Tournament for the second year in a row and now we will have to probably settle for an NIT bid if that even happens. It just frustrates me when we have such a great team will so much potential, but like most teams, injuries really plagued us leading to lethargic play. So now I look forward to next season when we should be one of the most dominant teams in D1 play (as long as we stay healthy and players don't leave early). And I can also look forward to the remainder of the Syracuse lacrosse season which never really disappoints its fans. So on this sad day I would like to say here's to next season!
