Ohio State Faces Maryland in the NCAA Men's Lacrosse Championship Game

Monday's NCAA men's lacrosse national championship game will pit a perennial powerhouse against an up-and-coming as top-seeded Maryland is set to in its third-straight national championship game while Ohio State is playing in its first ever.

It's an unfamiliar NCAA title matchup, but these are not unfamiliar opponents. The Big Ten foes met twice previously, playing two of the best, most highly-contested lacrosse games of the season. After over 120-minutes of action, the teams enter Monday's deadlocked at an aggregate score of 20-20, splitting a pair of one-point wins.

Monday's game will be the rubber match with the winner being crowned national champions.
