This is it. It all comes down to three games this weekend to decide the 2025 NCAA champion. Countless hours of hard work, preparation and execution have brought four elite programs to the precipice of greatness. 

Getting to Championship Weekend is a difficult feat worth celebrating in its own right. Congratulations to Cornell, Maryland, Penn State and Syracuse. There are memories banked that will last a lifetime in a shared experience that you will cherish with your teammates and fans forever. Meanwhile the other 69 men’s lacrosse programs all wish they were playing in Foxborough this weekend. 

Only one will emerge victorious and hoist the championship trophy on Monday afternoon. D-Fly and Dixie are here to help you get excited and informed for it all. We’ll break down the four games, but also discuss DI coaching moves, future sites for Championship Weekend, adjusting the season schedule, the ESPN streaming app, JHU baseball, summer concerts and much, much more.
