Tournament overview

In the tournament finals, the Virginia Cavaliers built a 9-3 lead by the third quarter, and held off the Syracuse Orange, the number eight seed, 12-10. This was Virginia's first NCAA title since 1972 and fourth overall including two pre-NCAA tournament Wingate Trophies in 1952 and 1970.[1]

Syracuse was the first number eight seed to make it to the title game.

Virginia's Conor Gill was named the most outstanding player of the tournament, the first freshman ever to win that honor. Other notable players included Virginia's Jay Jalbert, Syracuse's Ryan Powell, and Delaware's player of the year, John Grant, Jr.

Grant, Jr. led the Delaware Blue Hens to a number six national ranking and their first ever tournament win. Grant Jr. was the tournament's leading scorer along with Ryan Powell, with 14 points in just two games.

Up until this final, Virginia had lost its last three championship game appearances in overtime. Syracuse made it close, scoring five unanswered goals to climb back to within 10-9 with 6:30 left.

The All-Tournament Team included Conor Gill, Derek Kenney, Ryan Curtis, Jay Jalbert, Court Weisleder, Tucker Radebaugh, Marshall Abrams, Ryan Powell, Dan Denihan and Georgetown’s Scott Urick.
