<p>It was a bit scary to watch Duke score, what, 5 unanswered goals at the start of the second half? But Hopkins prevailed. Congrats!</p>

<p>Great game! Hopkins definitely earned the championship especially being the underdog, seeded 3rd.</p>

<p>I was at the game with the other over 48 thousand fans to watch a fantastic victory for JHU. The stadium fans went crazy when Hopkins scored its first goal in the first 12 seconds. A 10 to 4 lead at halftime felt great but all of us knew Duke was the comback team. UNC had a big lead against Duke; Cornell had a big lead against Duke and yet Duke came back against them. JHU was ready and just as Duke was approaching, JHU scored two more goals to make it a victory proof lead of 12 to 11. </p>

<p>JHU is the Number One Research University in America and now has the Number One Lacrosse team. Great job by all the JHU players and coaches.</p>

<p>Hopkins lacrosse is a beast.</p>

<p>Um, JHU isn't the number one research university NOW and hasn't been for at least 80 years.<br>
I think you've misread the typical JHU logo "First Research University in America."<br>
Don't confuse "first" with "number one."</p>

<p>Hopkins was also first on the National Science Foundation's list of federally funded research expenditures, spending $1.277 billion in FY2005 on research funded by agencies such as the National Institutes of Health, NASA, NSF and the Department of Defense.</p>
