Hempstead, N.Y. -- While Syracuse and Cornell Men's Lacrosse don't play each other Saturday, the two share the same goal: survive and advance to Championship Weekend. So, which Orange and Big Red players need to step up if their respective teams want to extend their seasons? Let's start with the x-factors for SU.

Syracuse, N.Y. -- The Westhill Girls Lacrosse team has just three games left before postseason play. But the Warriors continue to draw motivation from how their season ended last spring, losing in the sectional championship. 2024 was still a step in the right direction, with Westhill playing for its first Section III title in three years. It was South Jefferson, however, that finally got the job done in its third straight championship game.

Camillus, N.Y. -- There's a new face leading West Genesee Girls Lacrosse this season. Jessica Lavelle inherited the CNY powerhouse, which has appeared in three straight sectional titles. But before the first-year head coach was a Wildcat, she starred for their rival, Fayetteville-Manlius. Lavelle knows a thing or two about the winning tradition at West Genesee. That's because in the late 2000s, the former defender played against the Wildcats with F-M.
