Navy

The Navy Midshipmen are coming off an upset win over 4th seeded Yale in the first round of the NCAA Tournament, earning their first NCAA Tournament win since 2008 when they beat North Carolina. 

Navy has the top ranked defense in the country and showed it by holding Yale to just three goals in the second half. 

"I would say that as all Academy teams are, Navy is incredibly fit, athletic and the effort is always going to be there from a riding and ground ball perspective. They also play with an incredible amount of poise, they really took it to Yale," said Jamie Munro a Brown lacrosse alum and founder and CEO of 3D Lacrosse. 

Navy will face Brown on Saturday.

The Midshipmen went 11-4 overall in the regular season, including 7-1 in conference play.
