Currently, we have three buckets in D1 Lacrosse: 12 teams who won their first game, 12 teams that lost, and the majority of D1 teams that haven’t played a game yet. And, besides Villanova beating PSU, we’ve learned little from these first games. Saturday games will help us better understand where teams stand on the mountain. This is the breakdown of this week’s upcoming games:

ANYONE WHO IS BOTHERED BY HOW WE CLASSIFIED YOUR TEAM, PROVE US WRONG.

Unless marked differently, all games below are on Saturday, February 10, 2018.
