EAST HARTFORD, Conn. What began as the Year of the Transfer in Division I men’s lacrosse has produced a national title matchup with distinctly different traits.
Continuity and cohesion are the watchwords for third-seeded Maryland (15-0) and fourth-seeded Virginia (13-4), who will meet in Monday’s final at Rentschler Field.
Fifth-year players have clearly powered both to varying degrees. The Terrapins have attackman Jared Bernhardt and defenseman Nick Grill, both of whom took advantage of the extra year of eligibility afforded by the NCAA. Virginia still has long pole Jared Conners and midfielder Dox Aitken.
