D-I National Championship: Game Time

A pair of F-15s just flow overhead, and faceoff is just minutes away at the D-I Men's Lacrosse Championship, where Johns Hopkins (11-5) meets Syracuse (15-2) at Gillette Stadium, in a battle of the two most winningest programs in NCAA history.

Both teams are after their 10th national championship. They're the leaders in all-time wins, with Hopkins first with 882 and Syracuse second with 776 and NCAA Tournament wins -- Hopkins is again first, with 64, and Syracuse second, with 56.

It's the 46th all-time meeting between the two teams, the 12th in the Tournament.
