The Rally: Which spring sport will win a national title this season?
By JOE MORGAN | Jan. 10, 2013Josh: This year’s Florida lacrosse team has a chance to be dominant. The Gators lost just one player from last year’s squad, which made it to the national semifinals. No Florida team that finished one game short of the finals the previous season has returned as high of a percentage of its lineup since the last men’s basketball championship run in 2006-07. If the Gators aren’t hoisting the championship trophy in Philadelphia on Memorial Day weekend, it will be legitimately shocking, and you can’t say that about any other team.
