BIGGEST LOSER The ALC goes from a 2013 power conference to just Vanderbilt and Florida in 2015. Ouch.
NO CHANGES IVY LEAGUE
PERFECT 10 The MPSF and the Patriot League will be tied for the most members (10) in 2015.
BIG
PICTURE VIEW The Big East as a whole was ravanged by conference realignment, and it’s evident in lacrosse. The league has gone from 50 NCAA appearances to just 26.
BEST NEW
RIVALRY
Northwestern versus Maryland in the Big Ten. The Terps lead the series 7-6, but the Wildcats have won four of the last fi ve.
2013
The Ancient Eight (Brown, Cornell, Columbia, Dartmouth, Harvard, Penn, Princeton and Yale) are untouched by conference realignment. And they’ve still got the second-most NCAA appearances (71).
2015
