On Friday night, Marquette men's lacrosse was ranked #15 in the country and lost 16-1 to #16 Duke. They were bound to drop in the newest edition of the Cascade/Maverik poll. That's what happened on Monday morning, when Marquette came in at #18.
It's good news that the Golden Eagles are still in the top 20 poll. It's not that important, though, as the NCAA released their tournament top 10 rankings on Saturday afternoon. While I'm pissed off at the NCAA for starting to filter the stupid college football rankings updates out to the other sports (women's basketball did this too this past season), Marquette came in at #9 on that setup.
