@CradlLax With only 18 teams in the tournament and ACC gets 5, is there really a rule or why is there a rule you can't face another ACC team?

Initial reaction: tough first-round draw for Richmond. By RPI (.6193) and committee score (.6311), Duke is a clean #10. So I had Duke on Cornell at the 7-seed, Georgetown at Richmond. Duke (ACC) can't face UNC, UVA, Cuse, or ND. The only non-ACC top-8 host at the 10 line was Cornell — and Duke → Cornell is 465 mi (~600 mi driving), over the 400-mile travel preference. Dropping Duke to #13 puts them at Richmond (134 mi). JHU drops to 10 vs Cornell — 216 mi great-circle / ~315 mi driving. Both rules satisfied. Net 170 miles saved bracket-wide. Here's how the first round shakes out if all teams were seeded: - 1 Princeton vs play-in winner (Marist/Stony Brook) - 8 Penn State vs 9 Army - 5 Virginia vs 12 Georgetown - 4 Richmond vs 13 Duke - 3 North Carolina vs 14 UAlbany - 6 Syracuse vs 11 Yale - 7 Cornell vs 10 Johns Hopkins - 2 Notre Dame vs play-in winner (Robert Morris/Jacksonville) The committee put significantly more weight on AQ tournament championships and travel distance than my model did. PSU, Army, and Georgetown (all AQ champs) each moved up; JHU and Duke absorbed the cost.

@TerenceFoy Geographic placement continues to inform us lacrosse is not there yet. Seed the whole tournament!

What'd you think of the bracket?

@CAgovernor @grok who is in picture with gavin newsom?

The days of affordable housing and infrastructure in California being blocked by endless delays are finally over. I just signed a historic package of laws that simplifies building, cuts timelines, and will help make it more affordable to live in the greatest state in America.

@PLLArchers @bdobson_45 great player. better young man!

In his pro debut, Brendan Lavelle held Matt Rambo to ZERO goals and ZERO assists 😤👏 @bdobson_45 when asked how Lavelle handled the matchup 🔊👇

@ECDmike bold move cotton!

Wife: What are we doing for Mother’s Day? Me:

@College_Crosse syracuse could win all or lose 1st round

Who are the most intriguing teams in this NCAA Tournament?

@TerenceFoy @NCAALAX Source? who is #4 is sos? UPenn? with IVY/ACC conf schedule

Good morning, @NCAALAX fans. We're 11 games and less than 39 hours from the Men's Division I Selection Show. Here is how the teams stack up.

@coachking_28 @DukeMLAX when your kid scores the game winner to win the title. there is nothing better. heart beating out of my chest

What’s the best memory you have WATCHING lacrosse? Mine is watching CJ Costabile @DukeMLAX win the faceoff and score for the game winner to win a Natty over Notre Dame

The boys' rosters for the 2023 Senior All-America Lacrosse Game are loaded with talent. The rosters, chosen by @CSELax and @Inside_Lacrosse, feature the top HS seniors from the North and South. The game takes place July 29 at 8 p.m. Eastern. usalaxmagazine.com/high-school/bo…

7/1/23 mark it down. i got to see brendan o'neil play live at the highest level. different. generational. amazing. grateful. witness greatness. @paulcarcaterra @QKessenich @ShroffPxP

@danarestia Time for a ninth team. Too many great players not playing or reserve.

Mike Adler, Demitri George, Brett Kennedy, Johnny Surdick are the odd men out this week. Huge opportunities for multiple players trying to make sure they stick around once the NLL finals wrap up.

@Inside_Lacrosse @QKessenich @paulcarcaterra the what if... last 60 seconds up 1 on the road at Duke. They had the ball in offensive end. "if" they run out the clock they are in the tourney.

The Pioneers were one of the last teams to not make the NCAA Tournament, meaning Bill Tierney's legendary career officially comes to an end. @QKessenich & @paulcarcaterra reflect on what BT means for the sport. (📺 ESPNU)

@GolfDigest @harryhiggs1991 , @XSchauffele , @maxhoma23 and @jonrahm

Which pro do you want to see next? 🤔

@danarestia biggest snub??? happy for @ZachGoodrich

A young and obviously incredibly talented on roster that represents something of a changing of the guard. Fun fact: this is the first Team USA without Paul Rabil on it since the iPhone was invented.

@erikgreupner u r a good man! happy holidays to you and family

Spent the morning with the Balboa Elementary School Bulldogs…an awesome group of kids who wrote essays about their dreams in hopes of winning a new bike. We surprised them all at the end with a new bike for everyone! The pure joy among the kids was such a gift to us!!

@TerpsMLax proud of my son and all of his teammates. work hard on and off the field

Perfection in the classroom! Another incredible semester of hard work from our Terps 📚 📰: ter.ps/z8k #BeTheBest

"The more I think about it, the more emotional I get." @Brettmakar fought back tears in his postgame interview with @emilyehman after winning the Natty with @TerpsMLAX. 🥲

@jonschaeffer so much for day games...weak. guessing controlled by tv dollars

SDSU’s 2022 football schedule (with currently known game times and networks)

A furious, emotional and fed up Steve Kerr pleaded with senators to do something about the mass shootings.

@danarestia Koby Smith as well

It's going to feel weird tomorrow night during the PLL Draft when between Gray, Cohen, Nakeie, Hannah, Nichtern, Kennedy, etc that we could see the majority of first round picks not even in the NCAA tournament
