Lindenwood captured its first NCAA championship in program history on Sunday.
Perhaps it was only fitting.
As a final act to a 2021 Division II women’s lacrosse season that was marked by continuous COVID-19 disruptions, including postponed games, constant rescheduling, limited non-conference competition and no-contest decisions, the NCAA crowned a first-time champion on Sunday.
Second-ranked Lindenwood outlasted No. 5 Queens 14-12 to claim its first title and become just the second team in the 20-year history of the Division II women’s championship from outside of New York, Massachusetts or Pennsylvania to hoist the champion’s trophy.
