Lacrosse Faces Season of Expectations in 2008

Posted Dec 28, 2007

Just 20 months removed from the end of a 4-10 season, which concluded in April 2006, the North Carolina men's lacrosse team found out in December it would be preseason ranked No. 5 by Face-Off Yearbook and Inside Lacrosse Magazine heading into the 2008 campaign. That's quite a turnaround for a team that went 9-18 combined during the 2005 and 2006 seasons. (Tar Heel Blue)
