The 2019 Boston College lacrosse season officially began in February when the team practiced inside the Alumni Stadium bubble for the first time. The first day of the season is supposed to have a freshness and newness to it, but for some reason, there was a vastly different feeling to the players' stretch formation. It felt familiar, like the resumption of an unfinished project or continuation of a job not done.
That feeling had an underlying purpose that the Eagles laid bare over the last two-plus months. It was about a burning desire to simply become better every day.
