Okay, so they played an all-time doozie of a game in Baltimore, where Princeton defeated Johns Hopkins in overtime, 16-15.
In front of about 1288 lacrosse nuts, masochists, parents or significant others (pity the poor siblings who had to be there).
Now, it must have been a great game.
But outside?
In February.
For a college game?
That's either dedication or stupidity, and while you might be tempted to attribute it to the former because two smart-kid schools were playing, don't underestimate the stupidity of the academic/athletic materialism that these elite schools attempt. Yes, they'll offer more sports programs than the SEC schools and try to beat you, but to jam a schedule so hard that they go outdoors in February?
Great game or not, that takes dedication, with a bit of stupidity mixed in.
