Congratulations to the Cornell Big Red. The 2025 college season is complete, and we are living in a Big Red World as Cornell won its first NCAA Championship since 1977. Time to wrap up the season, as all good things must come to an end. D-Fly and Dixie rehash Memorial Day Weekend and share stories from a wonderful Final Four.  To celebrate Cornell's championship season, we replay parts of their interview last month with Big Red Legacy, Ryan Goldstein. The guys talk about Ithaca weather, growing up Goldstein, making it as a smaller attackman, role models, playing for public school power Radnor (Pa.), playing alongside CJ Kirst, why Ryan wears No. 30 and much, much more. Give and Go In this week's Tewaaraton-inspired Give & Go, the guys talk about the epic 2025 season of Cornell's CJ Kirst and his place in history as one of the very all-time greats.

This week we're joined by Matt Kinnear, the Editor-in-Chief at Inside Lacrosse, to recap the Wednesday Opening Round action and preview all eight First Round games this weekend. It's a fantastic lineup with four games each on Saturday and Sunday.

I always say that this Thursday to Sunday run of the conference tournaments and the Selection Show is the best four-day stretch of every lacrosse season. Teams have spent the last year working toward this, only the best teams are playing, every game is meaningful and the familiarity of playing conference rivals a second time begs for potential drama. May Madness is finally here. Let's revel in it. As always, D-Fly & Dixie are here to get you pumped up for all the games, and we'll preview the semifinal round in every single conference. We'll also talk about a few preseason Top 20 teams that didn't come close to matching the high expectations, and what comes next for those programs. In addition, we'll talk about the NCAA's all-time goal scorer, CJ Kirst, hotel front desks, the Ann Arbor lunch scene, predetermined sites hosting without the home team and much, much more.

WEEKEND PREVIEWS Eight games in our preview this week, with six Top 20 matchups and two Top 10 games and the best rivalry in the sport to highlight this week's schedule.  FRIDAY No. 18 Rutgers (6-7, 2-2 B1G) at No. 8 Penn State (8-3, 2-2), 6 p.m., Big Ten Network Since 1998, Rutgers and Penn State play for the 'Friendship Cup'. Rutgers is 46-27 in the all-time series but has lost three straight games. Since joining the Big Ten, RU is 5-7 against PSU. Johns Hopkins (6-6, 0-4 B1G) at No. 3 Maryland (9-2, 2-2), 8 p.m., Big Ten Network Best rivalry in the sport. Hopkins leads the all-time series 77-50-1. Hopkins has won last two regular season meetings, 12-11 in 2023 (ending a five-game losing streak to the Terps) and 7-5 last year. SATURDAY No. 1 Cornell (10-1, 4-0 Ivy) at No. 10 Harvard (9-2, 3-1), noon, ESPN+ Cornell has won five of the last six in this series and about two thirds of the almost 100 games historically. Expect lots of goals. No. 9 Notre Dame (6-3, 2-1 ACC) at No. 5 North Carolina (9-2, 2-0), noon, ESPNU D-Fly & Dixie will on site in Chapel Hill Saturday for this Top 10 matchup where the temperature is supposed to reach 86 degrees. The action on the field will be hot too as the Heels hope to snap a four-game losing streak to the Fightin' Irish. No. 19 UMass (9-3, 2-1 A10) at No. 11 Richmond (9-3, 3-0), noon, ESPN+ Big game in the A10. These two programs have only played once all time, with Spiders winning 14-12 in Amherst last season.

As we get to mid-April we get to Rivalry Week Part 1, and we see classic games like North Carolina-Duke and Army-Navy. For the most part we have great conference clashes up and down the schedule this week. However, one giant non-conference game highlights the schedule this week. Central New York powerhouses Cornell and Syracuse head to Long Island to square off in the Game of the Week. D-Fly and Dixie are here to set the table for all of this week's feast.

WEEKEND PREVIEW Six games in our preview this week, with five legit Top 20 matchups and two Top 10 games and one of the best rivalries in the sport to highlight this week's schedule.  SATURDAY No. 5 Army (9-1, 4-1 Patriot) at Navy (7-4, 3-2), 12:30 p.m., CBS Sports Network One of the best rivalries in the sport. Army has won the last two years, but Navy won 4-of-5 prior to that. While this is one of those rivalries where record truly doesn't matter, that is not the case. We haven't talked about Navy in a while, but they're right behind Army. No. 19 Johns Hopkins (6-5, 0-3 B1G) at No. 8 Penn State (7-3, 1-2), 1 p.m., Big Ten Plus What can you say? The Jays need this. Hopkins has controlled this series, winning last year and four of the last five meetings. However, this one is at Penn State, and the Nittany Lions have won four of the last five meetings in University Park. No. 6 Maryland (8-2, 1-2 B1G) at No. 2 Ohio State (11-1, 3-0), 2 p.m., Big Ten Network Big game in Columbus. Maryland has dominated this series, 14-3, and the Terps have won six in a row and eight of the last nine.  No. 7 North Carolina (8-2, 1-0 ACC) at No. 12 Duke (9-3, 0-1), 4 p.m., ACC Network Fans may remember last year when a depleted UNC shocked No. 2-ranked Duke, 15-12. The 2025 Tar Heels aren't going to sneak up on anybody. No. 4 Syracuse (9-2) vs. No. 1 Cornell (9-1), Uniondale, N.Y., 4 p.m., Corrigan Sports Network Cornell has won four of the last five, including two consecutive. The game has gone into OT each of the last two meetings, with Cornell winning 18-17 in 2OT last year, and 16-15 in 2022. We can only hope for another one as good as those. SUNDAY No. 14 Michigan (6-5, 2-1 B1G) at No. 18 Rutgers (6-6, 2-1), noon, Big Ten Network Rutgers is 10-1 all-time against Michigan, dating back to 2012. RU lost in Ann Arbor in 2015 in the first ever meeting of the two teams as Big Ten foes. Since then, Rutgers has won nine straight, including a 6-0 all-time record at home against the Wolverines. In this week's Ovie-themed Give & Go, the guys talk about Ovechkin breaking Gretzky's record and Ovie's status in the pantheon of Washington, D.C. all-time great pros.

As we head into the month of April, Inside Lacrosse has released its first Bracketology presented by Get Reps. Based upon RPI and Strength of Schedule, I wasn't surprised at the top four (Princeton, Maryland, Notre Dame and North Carolina), but it was something to see the nation's No. 1 team, Cornell, as IL's seventh best resume and the current third-ranked team, Ohio State, on the outside of the bubble. But hey, that's why we play the games! This week there are five Top 20 matchups and one delicious Top 10 matchup for your viewing enjoyment. D-Fly & Dixie are here to get you ready. And as teams battle the week-to-week storms of April conference play, don't forget that famous old expression, “April showers bring May prowess.” Ok, maybe I just made that up, but the teams that weather and grow from conference battles always set themselves up best for the postseason.  This year, Inside Lacrosse is proud to partner with the NCAA to offer you, our loyal listeners, $5 off all single-day ticket options (men and women) by using the code ILPOD at checkout.

This was a good one that you don't want to miss.

It's hard to believe we've reached the middle of the season. (Be sure to check out IL's Midseason All-Americans.)

The thing that makes sports so great is that anything can happen, and that is why they play the games. It sets up another exciting weekend of action, and D-Fly & Dixie are here to get you ready.  This year, Inside Lacrosse is proud to partner with the NCAA to offer you, our loyal listeners, $5 off all single-day ticket options (men and women) by using the code ILPOD at checkout.

It's mid-March. What did the non-conference schedule teach us? Which teams are the most battle tested? Who is healthy and getting better as the weather improves and home crowds increase? Which new stars have emerged? D-Fly & Dixie are back to get you answer these questions and get you set for another exciting weekend of college lacrosse. Let's get it! As NCAA basketball sucks up the bandwidth of most sports fans, conference play in college lacrosse ramps up. Every team wants to make the conference tournament and compete for the league's Automatic Qualifier for the NCAA Tournament. Since performance in the league race is the ticket to the post season for most teams, this is when the real season begins.  This year, Inside Lacrosse is proud to partner with the NCAA to offer you, our loyal listeners, $5 off all single-day ticket options (men and women) by using the code ILPOD at checkout.

The main event will be a stand-alone tilt televised on ESPNU when Johns Hopkins and Syracuse renew their rivalry on Sunday at 2 p.m. in the Dome. Appointment television for lacrosse fans.

As we approach our fourth weekend of college lacrosse action, what do we really know? Some teams look like legit contenders, and some hyped contenders look very pedestrian. Do we know anything yet? All we can be sure of is that it's way too early to crown a champion, and a fool's errand to write any team off before the end of February.  One thing we can definitely be sure of is that there is a gourmet feast of action this weekend. SEVEN bouts featuring teams in this week's KANE Media Poll from Inside Lacrosse, as 14 of the Top 20 matchup across the box on sidelines this weekend. That is ridiculous. D-Fly and Dixie are here to get you set for this smorgasbord of lacrosse.

The Ivy League and Notre Dame (almost half the Top 10) finally join the party, making their 2025 debuts this week. The all-you-can-eat buffet includes 37 games on the menu from Friday to Sunday. Sure, almost all the games are scheduled at noon, but let's get it! This week's guest is Inside Lacrosse Editor-in-Chief, Matt Kinnear. Matt sits down with Dan to discuss the start of the season, early surprises, his profile piece on Cornell star CJ Kirst, how IL's editorial staff maps out a new season, the launch of the WLL, Philadelphia's best burger joint and much, much more. And of course, no conversation between Dan and Matt has ever occurred without at least a little Pearl Jam chatter, and this time is no exception. WEEKEND PREVIEWS There's something for every fan this weekend, highlighted by two Top 10 non-conference tilts. FRIDAY Stony Brook (1-0) at No. 13 North Carolina (1-0), 6 p.m., ACCNX SATURDAY RV Rutgers (2-1) at No. 12 Army (1-0), noon, ESPN+ No. 4 Johns Hopkins (3-0) at RV Loyola (0-2), noon, ESPN+ No. 13 Penn (0-0) at No. 15 Georgetown (1-1), noon, FloSports No. 5 Princeton (0-0) at No. 10 Penn State (2-0), 1 p.m., B1G+ No. 2 Syracuse (3-0) at No. 6 Maryland (2-0), 2 p.m., B1G+  In this week's Valentine's Day-themed Give & Go, the guys reminisce about the pros and cons of Valentine's Day school celebrations.

The first weekend of the 2025 season went mostly according to script. With more teams making debuts and 32 games on the slate, will this week bring the drama, upsets and stunners we all love? D-Fly and Dixie are back to get you teed up for the weekend. They'll take a big picture look at the opening weekend, recap mid-week games including Hopkins nail biter with Towson and of course look ahead to the second weekend of the regular season. While the show's regular guests will generally be the current stars of the college game, the early part of the season always affords for a variety of discussions with interesting luminaries from across the sport. This week's guest certainly fits the bill as coach Seth Tierney joins Dan and Mark to talk about his Hofstra Pride, taking the reins of the men's national team for US Lacrosse, his leadership role with the Premier Lacrosse League and much, much more. WEEKEND PREVIEW Several more teams in action this weekend for the first time, and a few Top 20 matchups to get excited about. Unfortunately, almost all the games are again jammed into a short window between noon and 3 p.m. on Saturday.  FRIDAY Vermont (0-0) at No. 2 Syracuse (1-0), 6 p.m. SATURDAY No. 13 Army at UMass, noon No. 15 Michigan (1-0) at No. 16 North Carolina, noon No. 10 Georgetown (1-0) at No. 8 Johns Hopkins (2-0), 1 p.m. No. 4 Maryland (1-0) at Loyola (0-1), 1 p.m. SUNDAY No. 12 Penn State (1-0) at Villanova, noon MONDAY No. 17 Towson (0-1) at No. 2 Syracuse (1-0), 5 p.m. In this week's Super Bowl-themed Give & Go, the guys discuss their (surprising lack of) enthusiasm for this year's Big Game.

The 2025 season gets officially underway with 17 games on February 1, and D-Fly & Dixie are back in the saddle to help get you acclimated and excited for the new year. Despite two-time defending champ Notre Dame again claiming the top spot in the IL Media Top 20, the main theme of this new season is fresh faces. The historic cohort of experienced, record-breaking household names have departed, ushering in a new era in college lacrosse. Have your team rosters and game notes ready for early season games. As seems the case every year, there are some rules changes to understand. Two significant changes center around replays and face-offs. Who better to talk face-offs than TD Ierlan, arguably the greatest face-off athlete of all time? Ierlan and Dixie break down why the rules were needed and how the new face-off mechanics will work. In addition, the guys talk about preparing for a long season, coaching the face-off, TD's college experience playing for three legendary coaches and which college team gets the most love on spring Saturdays. GAME PREVIEWS There are 18 games this weekend, with 17 on Saturday. Are you sitting down, because you aren't going to believe this. Practically all of the games (13 of the 17 games) are at noon. Ugh. How hard would it be to schedule games spread out from noon to 8 p.m.? In any case there are some intriguing battles, including two legitimate Top 20 matchups: No. 20 Richmond at No. 5 Maryland, noon Navy at High Point, noon Colgate at No. 14 Penn State, noon Loyola at No. 11 Georgetown, noon Jacksonville at No. 2 Syracuse, noon No. 8 JHU at No. 10 Denver, 2 p.m. In this week's winter weather-themed Give & Go, the fellas reminisce about snow days of yore and finding the best sledding hill in the neighborhood.

In the latest episode of Columbia House Party, hosts Jake Goldsbie and Blake Murphy are joined by Densil McFarlane of The OBGMs (@theobgms) to discuss N.E.R.D.'s 2004 album Fly or Die. Obscured to some degree by the immense success of the group as producers (The Neptunes) and Pharrell Williams' eventual solo work, N.E.R.D. is more than deserving of their own oxygen as a bridge between hip hop and rock. Find out more about the influence N.E.R.D. had on Denz, the irritating, if predictable, critical response to Fly or Die, and why the first two N.E.R.D. albums sound like they could have come out last year on this week's podcast.Sick of hearing all the ads?

What a year in college lacrosse! We felt back in January that the 2024 season would be special, and it definitely delivered. The D-Fly and Dixie Podcast presented by Simplicity Group recaps Championship Weekend in Philadelphia, looks at USILA post-season awards and ties up some other loose ends. Dixie also makes his Tewaaraton Award prediction.  In this week's picnic-inspired Give & Go, the guys get excited about summer BBQs and chat about their favorite foods off the grill and on the picnic table. Also, in terrific tandem with the Fighting Irish, congratulations to the People's Champ, chicken parmigiana, for running away with the #MaggianoMadness title.

The dream begins each fall as newcomers join the veteran players on a quest to win a championship and bring glory to themselves, their teammates and their alma mater. This weekend the quest culminates in Philadelphia. Four teams. Four dreams. One trophy.

For the eight top seeds, the Dream continues this weekend in the NCAA Quarterfinals.

Have we really reached the midpoint of the 2024 regular season? Yes. Yes, we have. Time flies when you are having fun. As we close out March we have a pretty good understanding of the college lacrosse landscape, including which teams are shaping into contenders and which players are shaping into stars. Many of those contenders will sharpen their iron in another weekend featuring half a dozen Top 20 matchups. D-Fly & Dixie will set the table for big weekend ahead. One of those stars is Penn State attackman, TJ Malone, who's No. 4-ranked Nittany Lions have somehow seemed to fly under the radar in 2024.

Attracting the biggest names and covering the biggest games, the podcast previews the upcoming weekend of action and drops every Friday morning during the college lacrosse season. But the show also weaves interviews with top-named guests in the sport, pop culture references, food and drink critiques, other sports talk and discussion of their lives as two old friends into every unique episode. The show is distributed through Inside Lacrosse, the premiere media company in the sport for the past 25 years. About Dan and Mark The two met as student-athletes at Johns Hopkins. Mark played attack and midfield for the Blue Jays, and has been a well-recognized voice in the sport for decades - most recently as the premiere TV analyst for the Big Ten Network. Mark's knowledge and experience as a former player, coach, broadcaster, college-level official and father of two current Division I players allows him to bring an educated and well-rounded perspective as the featured personality on the show.

Next week (Feb 3-4) features so many good games worthy of your complete attention. So, the guys felt compelled to kick off the podcast season (in Week Negative 1?) with a season overview today.

About the D-Fly & Dixie Podcast Featuring long-time friends Dan Flynn and Mark Dixon, the D-Fly & Dixie Podcast is a weekly show mostly about NCAA Division I men's lacrosse. Attracting the biggest names and covering the biggest games, the podcast previews the upcoming weekend of action and drops every Friday morning during the college lacrosse season. But the show also weaves interviews with top-named guests in the sport, pop culture references, food and drink critiques, other sports talk and discussion of their lives as two old friends into every unique episode. The show is distributed through Inside Lacrosse, the premiere media company in the sport for the past 25 years. About Dan and Mark The two met as student-athletes at Johns Hopkins. Mark played attack and midfield for the Blue Jays, and has been a well-recognized voice in the sport for decades - most recently as the premiere TV analyst for the Big Ten Network. Mark's knowledge and experience as a former player, coach, broadcaster, college-level official and father of two current Division I players allows him to bring an educated and well-rounded perspective as the featured personality on the show. Despite growing up in a lacrosse “desert,” Dan is a highly-engaged, knowledgeable fan. Learning the sport on the hallowed Homewood grounds, he worked in college athletics for 15 years (all at lacrosse-priority schools) before moving on to a decade-long tenure at Inside Lacrosse as the director of business development and events. Dan's insider knowledge of the sport's culture and people, combined with his history with Mark and his love of the game as a pure fan, make him the perfect host and set-up man for Mark's analysis. Dan also produces and edits the show.

The regular season comes and goes so quickly. One day you're reading pre-season All-America lists and coordinating layers of cold weather gear in your team colors for the home opener, and then the next thing you know its Senior Day. Time flies when you're having fun. This season has been a joy. While some teams will take the field for the last time this weekend, for many others this week presents an opportunity to continue living the dream with their teammates. D-Fly and Dixie are here to preview the best of these games for you. One of those key matchups takes place on Friday night when Army hosts Boston U. in a Patriot League showdown, and head coach Joe Alberici of the Black Knights sits down with Mark and Dan. They talk about a wide-range of subjects, including the weather-related time change of the Army-Navy game, replacing an incredible Class of 2022, early recruiting period for the academies, working at West Point, a case for multiple Patriot teams in the NCAA tournament and much, much more. In a South-inspired Give & Go, the fellas talk with this week's episode sponsor, Dr. Larry Parker, about certain things that make the South such a unique place.

One of the great things about college lacrosse is that there are always many important games every week of the season. Week in and week out it's consistently good. Always. But then Rivalry Week comes, and it's just better. The tradition and history in the series. The familiarity of the teams. The disdain, yet often mutual respect, between fanbases. The bragging rights to the victor. Then add in the fact that it comes late in the regular season, and the Rivalry Game means there are usually post-season implications at stake. The 2023 edition of Rivalry Week brings all this and more. Highlighting our Rivalry Week preview show is an interview with third-year Hopkins head coach, Peter Milliman. He'll be at the center of the storm this week as he guides his No. 7-ranked Blue Jays into College Park to face the No. 3-ranked Maryland Terrapins on Saturday night. Milliman sits down with the guys to talk about changes coming out of the disappointing 2022 season, the significant addition of two new staff members, navigating one of the nation's toughest schedules, the Blue Jays' team leaders, what has made the Jays so good in late-game situations, the role JHU plays in growing the sport, the incredible success of Hopkins Athletics as a whole, team motivation going into The Rivalry and much, much more.
