Quint Kessenich’s Top 20: March 6, 2023

There’s little debate at the top where Virginia, Notre Dame and Cornell should comprise every pollsters #1-3 in no specific order. The ultimately winning pack of one-loss chasers is large and difficult to categorize. So is the PLL playing indoors and the NLL playing outside. My poll is a combination of art and science. It’s […]

Notre Dame Is Legit: Week 3 Lacrosse Wall Ball

Wins matter. It’s only February. Wins matter. Conference play is only just beginning. Wins matter.

Quint Kessenich’s Top 20: February 6, 2023

I can’t remember a year that features so many championship caliber teams. Usually, it’s a small elite handful of three to six teams who could go the distance.
