Divison 1 NCAA Lacrosse Tournament

 Each Division in lacrosse holds an NCAA Tournament to compete for the Title. Teams are chosen to attend the tournament by there regular season records. The first NCAA lacrosse Division 1 Tournament was held in 1971 at Hofstra College in New York. Cornell defeated Maryland 12-6 and it started a new tradition. Syracuse college in New York has led the amount of titles won with 10 titles. They are looked at as the best team in division 1 lacrosse history. In a span of 39 years only 8 different teams have won the title. This year, the unseeded Notre Dame Fighting Irish made it all the way to the finals upsetting so many teams. They suffered a heart breaking loss to Duke in over time off of a face-off. The NCAA lacrosse tournament is one of the most watched events in all of America.
