Cornell men's lacrosse beats Maryland for 1st title since '77
May 26 - Three years after falling one step short of claiming the NCAA men's lacrosse national championship, Cornell has finally reached the peak. With CJ Kirst recording six goals -- upping his season total to 82 to equal the Division I single-season record -- plus an assist, the Big Red avenged their 2022 loss to Maryland by defeating the Terrapins 13-10 on Monday in Foxborough, Mass. The win gave Cornell its first team championship in any sport since the lacrosse team won in 1977 while handing Maryland its third title game loss in five years. What's more, Kirst reset the Division I career scoring mark with his six goals to finish with 247. Ryan Goldstein had four goals for Cornell, while Andrew Dalton and Ryan Waldman also netted a score apiece. Wyatt Knust finished with 12 saves for the Big Red. Maryland's Zach Whittier, Eric Spanos and Braden Erksa each had two goals, while Bryce Ford, Daniel Kelly, Jack Schultz and Elijah Stobaugh all scored once. Logan McNaney totaled 11 saves in goal. "Credit to these guys, credit to these players, credit to this tradition, credit to my staff," Cornell coach Connor Buczek, a former Big Red midfielder himself, told ESPN during a postgame interview. "I'm the luckiest guy in the world and I'm surrounded by incredible people who just work their tails off day in, day out. I'm so happy for the university. I'm so happy for our tradition. This feels incredible." --Field Level Media

Kirst scores 6 goals, Cornell wins first NCAA lacrosse title since 1977 13-10 over Maryland
FOXBOROUGH, Mass. (AP) — CJ Kirst scored six goals, Ryan Goldstein added four and Cornell, the first NCAA lacrosse champion, ended a 48-year drought with a 13-10 win over Maryland on Sunday for the Big Red's fourth national championship. Kirst scored the final goal into an empty net with 50 seconds to go. It was his 82nd of the season, allowing the NCAA's all-time leading scorer (247) to tie the single season record of 82. 'We knew if (No.) 15 got going we were going home with hardware and by god if he didn't find it and find it in a big way,' coach Connor Buczek, a former Big Red All-American said. 'He pulls the best out of everyone around him.' A game, a matchup of the teams from the first NCAA championship the Big Red won 12-6 in 1971, was tight throughout. Second-seeded Maryland (14-4) never led but top seeded Cornell (18-1) never led by more than three. Kirst, who was scoreless for the first time in his career in the semifinals, didn't connect until inside the two minute mark of the first half, which ended with the Big Red on top 6-5. He had had a hat trick in the third period. 'Just playing off my teammates,' Kirst said. 'Semifinal game game I didn't have my best performance but man did my teammates step up. That's what this year's been all about. ... And Ryan Goldstein didn't have too bad of day too, huh?' Maryland, now 4-14 in title games, went down 10-7 early in the fourth quarter but the Terps scored consecutive goals for the first time. Brandon Erksa and Elijah Stobaugh made it a one-goal game with 9:23 to play. Two unforced turnovers at midfield led to Kirst and Goldstein goals to regain the three-goal lead at 12-9 with 4:08 left. ___ AP college sports:
