We made it! After months of wondering whether the 2021 season would even happen, the powers that be figured it out. The student-athletes and coaches stayed as safe and healthy as possible under unprecedented circumstances (can we retire that phrase soon?). And now, we’ve arrived at May Madness.
Choosing the 29-team field involved some unprecedented (sorry) discussions. The Big Ten only played conference opponents. Some teams played 11 or 12 games while others got in 16 or more. And the bracket isn’t without controversy (Duke at No. 7? No Penn State?). But that’s all pundit-speak. Over the next three weekends, teams will settle scores between the lines. Here’s (half of) what to watch for this weekend.

Drexel came from behind to beat Towson 15-14 in overtime and is headed to the CAA final for the first time in program history.
Drexel’s magical season continues on following a 15-14 comeback victory in overtime against Towson in the Colonial Athletic Association women’s lacrosse semifinals on Friday evening in Harrisonburg, Va. Senior attacker Courtney Dietzel scored off a free-position attempt in the opening possession of overtime to give the Dragons (13-1) the victory.
Drexel, which beat Towson by double digits twice in the last month, trailed by three goals with under 10 minutes to play. But then Drexel ripped off three goals in a span of just 60 seconds Colleen Grady (7:46), Jamie Schneidereith (7:06) and Karson Harris (6:46) to tie the game 14-14.
