Paul Carcaterra on the NCAA Tournament Field

The Baltimore Sun's lacrosse blog caught up with CBS lacrosse analyst Paul Carcaterra. His take on the toughest path to Foxborough:

Personally, I’d rather be a second-seeded Syracuse than a No. 1 Virginia. That first-round game against Villanova, they should win, but it’s not going to be a total joke like some of those others that No. 1 seeds have played in the past. At the end of the day, they should win that game pretty comfortably, but look at who they’re staring at as a potential quarterfinal matchup? Johns Hopkins. That’s a team that’s been to the national championship three times in the past four years. They’re battle-tested, they’ve shown that they can play with Virginia when they lost by one goal. Virginia’s a team that has struggled in the last few weeks. Maybe they put it together and show that they deserve to be a [No.] 1 seed, but I wouldn’t want Hopkins in the quarterfinals.
