Gillespie / Baltimore Sun Media Group) Navy's men's lacrosse team took a big step forward last season. The Midshipmen compiled a 9-5 overall record and tied for the Patriot League regular season championship with a 6-2 mark.
That was easily the best season since Navy went 11-5 and captured the Patriot League Tournament title in 2009. It marked a major improvement for the Midshipmen, who went a combined 7-20 overall and 4-10 in the conference the previous two years.
