Men’s lacrosse (10-7) will await a possible NCAA or ECAC postseason bid after falling to Ithaca in the Empire 8 Championship game on Sunday. The squad put up a valiant effort, considering they played at 7 p.m. Friday, beat Stevens in the E8 semifinal, then arrived back in Rochester around 4 a.m. Saturday morning, then got back on a bus to Ithaca on Sunday morning to play their second game in 43 hours. It was announced on Tuesday that 10 Tigers earned 2008 All-Empire 8 honors.

By the way, why should we care about Roger Clemens and this latest allegation of an affair with a country singer? Why is that news?
