BYU Lacrosse - Three time national champions

For BYU lacrosse Cougarfans, May 19, 2007 was a glorious day.

Following a 16 game winning streak, the BYU men's lacrosse team crushed Oregon 16-9 at the Pizza Hut Park in Dallas, TX. Having been defeated by Oregon 8-7 earlier in a regular season game, BYU knew they had to step up their game if they were to regain the title from their 1997 and 2000 victories.

It was a no-score game until the Ducks scored at the 14-minute mark. However, the Cougars immediately returned with three back-to-back goals. The rest of the game followed suit, and from looking at the final score you might have thought you were at a football game in the LaVell Edwards Stadium.
