Duke has come from the lowest of lows in 2006 to a 6-5 win over Notre Dame today in an overtime win this afternoon.
Duke was at a low when some of their players were falsely accused of raping a stripper. It turned out that she lied and had a history of lying. The district attorney is no longer in office and the lacrosse coach lost his job. Young men lost their reputations. The Duke lacrosse team was suspended for a year.
Today Duke can celebrate. In addition to their awesome win over Notre Dame, the team has a 3.2 GPA and has played Lacrosse overseas. Duke lacrosse coach John Danowski has brought to Duke lacrosse program a long ways. He has been an excellent coach, father figure, and mentor.
Congratulations are also in order for the Lady Terps who won the Womens National Lacross Championship yesterday! The Maryland women’s lacrosse team defeated No. 2 Northwestern, 13-11, for its first NCAA Championship since 2001 in front of a record-breaking crowd of 9,782 Sunday at Unitas Stadium.
Fear the turtle!
