That was...not...good.
In a game we’ve been waiting 351 days for since the 2020 season was shutdown due to the coronavirus pandemic, the Syracuse Orange men’s lacrosse team got run out of its own building (what was it called again? The Dome? The Stadium? I can never get that right) by the Army Black Knights, 18-11, in the 2021 season opener.
The result was especially so surprising because of the way the Orange began the game, jumping all over Army in the early going to the tune of a 6-1 lead, only to see Army flip the script in what I’m going to call a “reverse Syracuse basketball against Notre Dame”.
