DURHAM, N.C. (AP) β It seems like the NCAA can’t hold a Final Four in men’s lacrosse lately without Duke.
The defending national champion and top-seeded Blue Devils (15-3) are in the national semifinals for the eighth straight year, and they will play fifth-seeded Denver on Saturday in Baltimore.
Attackman Kyle Keenan says the players “blindly follow (the coaches) because we know they know how to get it done.”
Coach John Danowski β the first coach to reach the Final Four in each of his first eight years at a school β took over the program from Mike Pressler in July 2006 when three players faced rape allegations that turned out to be false.
His first Duke team reached the NCAA title game in 2007, starting a run of success that continues.
