Princeton is national champion. We called it preseason. We are not going to pretend otherwise.
We break down both semifinal blowouts, the championship comeback from down 3-0, and what it actually means that Princeton went 11 unanswered to lead Notre Dame 11-3 at halftime. We also get into what comes next for Duke (better than you think) and what the legacy question really looks like for that Syracuse senior class.
Northwestern beat UNC 14-11 in the women's championship, and the conversation got hijacked by the rules. A crease violation reversed a goal. The shooting space call was a stretch. We get into both and why the issue is less about the refs and more about rules that just don't make sense.
The Tewaaraton ceremony is tonight. We made our picks. Joey Spallina or Nate Kabiri on the men's side, Chloe Humphrey or Madison Taylor on the women's side, and we got into Reagan O'Brien's caused turnover numbers, which are genuinely absurd. We also talked about whether seniority should factor into these things at all, because it probably does even when it shouldn't.
Jeff Teat is out for the season. Shoulder surgery. We get into what that actually does to the Atlas title defense, and then preview a Baltimore Weekend where a lot of rosters are finally coming together.
Plus: UVA officially hired Kevin Cassese to replace Lars Tiffany, and Cassese said something in his introductory presser that raised more questions than it answered.
