The Duke Blue Devils lacrosse team will play #7 ranked Loyola today, Sat., at Loyola. The first round game of the NCAA tournament will be broadcast on ESPNU, either at 12:00 or 2:30, depending on which page of the Capital Gazette is correct. With the storms approaching this afternoon, lets hope it is 12:00.
This will be a chance for local residents to watch the highly praised Pat Spencer of Davidsonville who is having a tremendous freshman season for the Loyola Greyhounds.
The game started at 12:00, fortunately, and should avoid the oncoming rain.
Pat Spencer, according to the announcers, is having a "monster game" during the first half as the Greyhounds lead 9-6 at the end of the first half. Spencer has five points, but is actually being out-shined by Jack Bruckner of Duke who is 6 for 6, scoring all the Duke points without missing a shot.
Loyola prevailed 16-11in the end with Spencer getting 8 points--3 goals and 5 assists. This gives him 18 points in the last two games.
Loyola next faces the winner of the Denver (#2 seed) Towson game in Columbus, OH.
