The Owls outlasted the Commodores 16-11 after splitting two games just two weekends ago. Temple scored eight goals in each half and had an 18-11 advantage on draw controls, fueling the victory.

Leading up to Thursday’s America East Conference semifinal against Vermont, members of the UAlbany women’s lacrosse team promised they weren’t looking past the Catamounts to a potential meeting in this weekend’s championship game against rival Stony Brook.
The Great Danes, clearly, meant it.
On the way to a 17-8 victory against Vermont at Kenneth P. LaValle Stadium, UAlbany opened Thursday’s game on Long Island with eight unanswered goals.
“We came out flying,” UAlbany head coach Katie Rowan Thomson said during a post-game teleconference.

In a season full of surprises, a pair of favorites punched their tickets to the NCAA Tournament last weekend, with UNC winning the ACC and Northwestern taking the Big Ten crown. Outside of the Power Five, High Point secured its fourth-straight NCAA Tournament automatic qualifier by winning the Big South.
But donât use a pen if youâre trying Bracketology at home. Thereâs still plenty up in the air. St. Joe s shook things up by downing nationally-ranked Richmond in the A-10 semis last weekend, opening the door for UMass to earn its bid to the tournament and leaving the Spiders to sweat it out, hoping for an at-large bid on Sunday.

ALBANY A championship rematch with Stony Brook, in all likelihood, looms.
And, make no doubt about it, that’s the game that will largely determine the way this UAlbany women’s lacrosse season gets remembered.
But the Great Danes cannot play that game, the one their program needs to find a way to win to move forward, until this weekend and they won’t play that game unless they take care of business Thursday against Vermont in the America East Conference semifinals at Stony Brook’s Kenneth P. LaValle Stadium at 6:30 p.m.
