Ryan, Skyler, and friend of the blog Marisa Ingemi join for a roundtable discussion on the state of women's lacrosse. We dabble into women's sports in general, exposure, the effect of new rules, and some of the things we're looking forward to this season. We also dive into the big games of the first weekend, including a big one between defending champion James Madison and 2016 champ UNC.

Ryan, Safe, and Adam recap the first weekend of the year while getting you set for the second, featuring what should be another classic duel between Loyola and Virginia at Ridley. Yes, we said we were going to split recaps and previews, but this was short enough to keep it with one for this week.

In the first of two season preview podcasts on the NCAA Women's Lacrosse end, College Crosse's Skyler Gilbert discusses his preseason top 20, his early Tewaaraton finalists, and a Final Four prediction. Will anyone be able to top BC? And which teams will look to come out of the pack and be the sleepers to keep an eye out in May?

The 2019 college lacrosse season begins this weekend, and Ryan, Chris, and Jake are here to get you set for it. Utah and St. Bonaventure get their programs rolling while Jacksonville and Detroit-Mercy have an intriguing battle along the way. Check out our new preview episode format and let us know if you enjoy it!

The conference that pairs brains with brawn sees two powerhouses in Yale and Cornell looking like national title contenders. Can the Elis repeat? Can the Big Red return to Memorial Day weekend? Will Michael Sowers finally put Princeton through to the tournament? And how about that muddled race for 4th? Pay attention class, we're about to get you prepared for the exam known as the 2019 Ivy League.

America's most toughest conference top-to-bottom deserves an apt metaphor. So we made the B1G preview reflect what conference play will end up becoming– the Royal Rumble. Come for the analysis of who comes out on top, stay for the wrestler-team comparisons.

Is Duke BACK to being a national title team? Can UNC get BACK on track? Will Notre Dame be BACK to form after a big loss to their roster? Is Syracuse BACK to being a top 10 team or BACK to causing Syracuse.com commenters to call for Desko's head? Is Virginia BACK to being elite? All this and more in our conference preview of the ACC.

There's Loyola. There's Lehigh. And then there's 7 teams making life a living hell for one another as well as the other two. Yep, this is the Patriot League, and we try to make some sense out of college lacrosse's largest and sometimes most unpredictable conference.

THUNDERDOME! returns for what should be another wild season of conference play. UMass has the potential to be a presence this May, but never underestimate the CAA's ability to throw wrenches into those plans.

Last year the Big East got three teams into the NCAA Tournament, more than even the Big Ten or Ivy League. A retooled Denver squad looks to be the class of the conference again, but there's plenty of teams chomping on the bit to wear the Big East crown.
