Stony brook has played a UCF type schedule in the past but its getting tougher every year. The problem with Lacrosse is that with slightly more competitive teams picking 8 is really tough once get past the top 4


Don't think there is a clear top 4 right now.

Maryland
Stony Brook
Boston College
Florida
Syracuse
JMU
Navy
Duke
Northwestern
Princeton
North Carolina
USC
Virginia
Penn
Notre Dame

are all pretty strong. After that not sure maybe Towson, Penn State ?
