Notre Dame Men's Lacrosse: A review of the 2016 season

We look back upon the season and the seniors departing, and look forward to what to expect next year

In one of the wildest men's lacrosse seasons, perhaps ever, we saw our Fighting Irish hold the #1 ranking for long stretches over the season, but ultimately saw them depart in the NCAA quarterfinals at the hands of UNC. Certainly not the end we had hoped for, but it was a fantastic season to observe. These student-athletes should be proud of what they have done and accomplished.

The year saw another great performance by the Irish defense, and as the season progressed, saw the return to health of the great Matt Kavanagh.
