Northwestern Athletics The 2025 NCAA Division I women’s lacrosse tournament kicks off today with the first round. Although Northwestern doesn’t begin play until the second round on Sunday, May 11, we wanted to celebrate opening day with a piece previewing the Wildcats’ run ahead. In this piece, Inside NU’s EIC Yanyan Li, as well as former EICs Brendan Preisman and Sophia Vlahakis follow up on their preseason preview to answer all the questions you may have about the NCAA tournament.

When Rachel Stratton-Mills surprised Aaron Baltaytis in the hospital, she almost did not recognize the Division I swimmer. The Northwestern Swimming and Diving coach checked in with Baltaytis every day as he underwent treatment for testicular cancer.

@NULax/X There are two kinds of disappointing losses. There is the kind of disappointment that feels hopeless. It follows an inevitable loss.

But the Terps are a different team than they were to start the season when they fell to then-No. 6 Syracuse.

When Amonte Hiller revived Northwestern's lacrosse program in 2002, she completely changed the dynamic of the East Coast sport. It's not easy to win a title, and it's not easy to create a dynasty. But Amonte Hiller had a vision from the start.
Northwestern was the Cinderella story of the lacrosse world when it won a national title in 2005. But that championship wasn’t an accident. It was exactly what Kelly Amonte Hiller set out to do in 2002 when she revived the school’s program. https://t.co/1GbpiLEPTP
