Mens Lacrosse, even though they lost, played Maryland yesterday for an NCAA championship too. I found that interesting... Earlier in the season they upset Maryland, and lost yesterday by a 9-6 score.

I don't know how much of an "upset" it was. Ohio State played Maryland twice in the regular season. Each team winning one game by 1 goal. Maryland has MUCH more experience in the Lacrosse National Championships. They've played in the Championship game 5 of the last 7 years. |

This year Ohio State set a new Big Ten record with 392 Academic All-Conference selections. To receive that honor you must have been a member of that team for at least 2 years, be a letter winner and have at least a 3.0 GPA.
I'm sure Gene Smith is more proud of this accomplishment than any other.
Also proves that the success of a sports team has a lot to do with recruiting 4 and 5 Star academics as well.
