There’s a new number one in NCAA Division I men’s lacrosse.
Maryland climbed to No. 1 in the USILA Coaches Poll (tied with Virginia), as well as Inside Lacrosse’s Media Poll, both released Monday.
The Terps started the season at No. 2 in both outlets’ preseason polls behind defending national champion Virginia, but dropped to No. 3 in the USILA poll after an impressive opening weekend by now-No. 7 Duke nudged Maryland out of the second spot. Inside Lacrosse did not release a poll last week.
This weekend, however, Duke fell to then-unranked Jacksonville 14-12, its fourth game in nine days.
