Back on Saturday, Marquette men’s lacrosse lost to Providence, 16-14, as they couldn’t bounce back from an early deficit. That dropped the Golden Eagles to 5-4 on the year, and given that this was their first loss since beating then-#5 Penn State, I figured that would be the end of MU getting votes in the Inside Lacrosse top 20 poll. That’s why I didn’t even bother looking at the poll on Monday, and took allllll the way until Wednesday morning to take a peek.
I was wrong!
