The Syracuse Orange were just on the wrong side of one of the most lopsided contests I’ve ever seen. Notre Dame came out firing this afternoon and didn’t let off the gas all game in a thorough thrashing of SU. It says something when the Men’s Lacrosse Twitter didn’t have a single highlight to post all afternoon, and the postgame pic is missing the final score:
For a team that had struggled to score so far this season, the Fighting Irish certainly didn’t play the part.
The Orange put themselves at a huge disadvantage early on when just over three minutes into the game, Matteo Corsi and Saam Olexo both took penalties, giving the Irish a 6-on-4 advantage in the offensive zone.
