Loyola vs. Hofstra
Loyola (11-2) punched its ticket to the NCAAs by winning its fifth Patriot League championship in seven years last weekend. The Greyhounds have won at least one NCAA Tournament game in seven of its eight appearances under head coach Jen Adams and last made the quarterfinals in 2015. Hofstra (6-6), which earned an at-large bid, is making its first appearance in the tournament since 2007.
Livy Rosenzweig paces the Greyhounds in goals (32), assists (42), points (74) and draws (73). Jillian Wilson (23 G, 16 A, 61 DC, 17 CT) also knows how to stuff a stat sheet. Loyola ranks fourth nationally in scoring defense (7.69) and is anchored by goalie Kaitlyn Larsson (7.84 GAA, .519 save percentage). Larsson’s GAA is fourth in Div. I.

Following a comeback win against USC in the Pac-12 semifinals on Thursday, head coach Anne Elliott Whidden’s three-seeded University of Colorado lacrosse team lost to the one-seeded No. 13 Stanford Cardinal in the Pac-12 title game on Saturday.
Despite the loss, it still marked the Buffs’ third appearance in the Pac-12 Championship Game. CU has now played in all three Pac-12 title games, the only team to do so since the conference began sponsoring lacrosse in 2018.

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.
