SYRACUSE, N.Y. - Despite having his team's season end earlier than usual for the third-straight year, Syracuse men's lacrosse head coach John Desko believes the experience gained by his mostly-young squad will pay dividends next year. The Orange struggled to a 7-7 regular-season record but won the inaugural Big East tournament to clinch a berth in the NCAA tournament. But their run would go no further thanks to a 12-9 loss to Duke--the third year in a row SU failed to make it past the quarterfinals and second time in that span it lost in the first round.

SYRACUSE, N.Y. - In the NCAA Division I tournament for the third-straight year but participating on an at-large bid for the first time, the Syracuse University softball team is hoping to make a cross-country trip to Tempe, Ariz., worth the long flight this weekend. The double-elimination regional is being hosted by defending national champion Arizona State, but Syracuse is matched up with Long Beach State in its opening game Friday night.

DURHAM, N.C. (AP) Justin Turri had three goals and two assists to lead third-seeded Duke past Syracuse 12-9 on Saturday in the first round of the NCAA men's lacrosse tournament.
Robert Rotanz finished with three goals, two coming immediately after Syracuse pulled to 5-all early in the third period. They came during a flurry of four goals in a span of 4:19 that helped Duke pull away.
Duke (14-4) is chasing its sixth straight Final Four berth, and claimed its first NCAA tournament win over the Orange (9-8) in four tries. The Blue Devils advance to the quarterfinals next weekend in Philadelphia.
Kevin Drew and Scott Loy had two goals apiece for Syracuse. Drew's first goal tied it 25 seconds into the third.
Tommy Palasek added one goal and two assists.

SYRACUSE, N.Y. - The Syracuse men's lacrosse program is 3-0 vs. Duke in the NCAA tournament but 1-3 in true road games in the postseason, but neither side is putting much emphasis on history as they get ready to meet again Saturday in the first round. Of much more relevance, the teams met earlier this sesaon with Duke winning 12-10 at MetLife Stadium in early April, but even that game only holds so much weight as both teams say they have improved since then. Gametime Saturday is noon and ESPN will provide the telecast.
