Back in mid-February, Boston College Club opened the 2025 season with trip south to play in Georgia’s Big Dawgs Tournament. The host Bulldogs handed the Eagles a season-opening 16-8 loss, one of 12 games this season in which Georgia’s high octane offense scored 15 goals or better.

Friday in Wichita, the teams met again in the national semifinals of the USA Lacrosse WCLA championship tournament, and this time, a suffocating BC defense limited Georgia to its lowest scoring output of the year as the Eagles prevailed, 9-6.

Last year, CSU San Marcos arrived in Wichita as the number one seed in the USA Lacrosse WCLA tournament’s Division II bracket, advanced to the national semifinals, and got steamrolled, falling 12-2 to eventual D-II champion Vermont.

One year later, the Cougars faced a similar scenario.

Once again, CSUSM arrived at this week’s WCLA championship tournament as the top seed and easily made its way into the semifinal round. But this year, the Cougars had clear intentions on rewriting the ending to the script.
