May Madness. MAY-hem. Or just plain tourney time. Whatever you call it, it’s just about here.
For the Syracuse Orange men’s lacrosse team and their fans, this used to be the best time of the year. A spring lacrosse festival that we always hung around for until the end.
But the good times have been running short in May in recent years. The deep postseason runs have dried up as the Orange haven’t won the championship since 2009 and haven’t been to Memorial Day weekend since 2013. SU hasn’t even won a tournament game since a first round win over Yale back in 2017.
