Some notes about this year's final media poll

Delaware and Albany have finished as high as either team ever has in this year's poll

This is the first time since the inception of the media poll that Syracuse has not been ranked at the end of the season

During the season, Cornell was the only team in the country to hold the top spot for more than one week. Cornell became No. 1 on March 12 and held the top spot throughout the regular season polls (which ended May 7), a stretch during which they were undefeated

Johns Hopkins was No. 1 for just one week, the week of February 19. Hopkins, however, earned the ranking with a 0-0 record and moved from its preseason ranking of No. 2 up to No. 1 after then-top-ranked Virginia lost to Drexel in the first week of lacrosse action

The Nike/Inside Lacrosse Men's Division I Media Poll comes out each Monday during the spring and is voted on by members of various media outlets throughout the country.
