Syracuse lacrosse dropped a tough one Saturday, falling to Notre Dame 15-7 in a game that wasn’t particularly close. The loss nudges the Orange to 13-6 on the season, while the Fighting Irish improved to 13-2 and continue to look like a legitimate title contender.
The Rochester Red Wings picked up a solid win in Worcester, beating the Red Sox 5-7 — sorry, 7-5 — in a Triple-A matchup that keeps Rochester moving in the right direction. The Red Wings now sit at whatever their record reflects after posting runs in bunches against Worcester’s pitching.
Out of the region, the New York Knicks moved within one win of the NBA Finals with a 121-108 victory over the Cleveland Cavaliers. New York improved to 53-29 with the win, and if the series math holds, they’re one game away from a Finals berth. It’s the kind of result that’ll have Knicks fans checking the calendar.
