GETTING DEFENSIVE... The defense has been a big reason why Richie Meade s club has enjoyed success for the years Last spring, allowed just 106 goals on 411 shots for a shooting percentage of just.258. Twenty of the goals came via man-up opportunities for the opponents, meaning 86 goals came even-strength, an average of 5.38 even-strength goals per game.

Both losses came in extra minutes during the 2005 campaign (Bucknell and Johns Hopkins). THE LAST LINE OF DEFENSE... Matt Russell burst onto the scene in 2004, earning the starting keeper job in the team s third game and never let it go. He went on to earn First-Team All-America honors as a sophomore and was the Kelly Award recipient as the nation s top goalie. Heading into his senior year, he owns a 26-5 career record.

THE DISTRIBUTOR... Jon Birsner has been one of the most underrated players on the roster the last few seasons, but his play-making skills have proven to be invaluable. He tallied his 100th-career point in the Patriot League Championship against rival Army, becoming just the 25th player to accomplish the feat. Birsner had a career game in the March 19 meeting with Colgate. He dished out eight assists, tied for the second-best total in school history, leading the Mids to an 11-6 win over the Raiders. The eight assists were the most since Paul Basile had eight in a 14-6 win over Brown (5/13/87). The eight assists were the most in the NCAA last season and the eight points tied for the most. He followed up with a six-point (3 g, 3 a) effort at Lehigh. The 14 points in consecutive games are the most since Mike Buzzell had 20 points (10 g, 10 a) in a two-game stretch against Delaware and Syracuse in Has recorded 21 career multi-assist games in just 44 career games. Recorded assists (31) on 19.7 percent of s goals (157) last season and accounted for 35.2 percent of s (85) assists in LOONEYS DO IT ALL... The Looney brothers have been instrumental in s resurgence over the last two seasons. The elder, Steve, is one of the most versatile players in the country, performing on the top midfield line, the face-off crew, defensive midfield and the EMO unit. He scored a career-best five points on five goals in leading to a 9-2 triumph over Providence in the season opener. It was a breakout game for the Steve, as he recorded just his second-career hat trick. In the Mids win over No. 7 North Carolina, he tallied five points (4 g, 1 a) and scooped up a season-best nine ground balls. He was named the Insidelacrosse.com National Player of the Week, as well as Patriot League Offensive Player of the Week for his efforts. Recorded a monster game against No. 4 Army, scoring three points (2 g, 1 a) and picking up eight ground balls. The effort earned him his second Patriot League Offensive Player-of-the-Week award this season.

5 A ground-ball machine, Steve scooped up a game-high seven grounders against Johns Hopkins, then added four more against Lehigh. He has gobbled up 162 career ground balls and needs just 52 to set a new school record. Steve was added to the Tewaaraton Award watch list midway through the season. Meanwhile, Billy, who was named the 2004 Patriot League Rookie of the Year and a First-Team All-Patriot League midfielder in 2005, has started all 34 career games, and is averaging over a point a game for his career (47 career points in 34 games). He produced his first-career multi-goal game against Colgate, then added four goals against Holy Cross. Led the Mids to a 12-9 triumph over Army with a team-best three goals. Two of his goals came in the second half to help build an insurmountable lead. Combined, the brothers tallied 38 points (32 g, 6 a) and 56 ground balls in the last 12 games. In 2005, the duo combined for 53 points (44 g, 9 a) and 76 ground balls. FANTASTIC FRESHMAN... Head coach Richie Meade has had a long line of freshmen succeed in his offense. Nick Mirabito was the team s fourth-leading scorer last spring with 33 points and scored at least two points in 11-of-16 games. He was named the Patriot League Rookie of the Week on March 22 after producing two points at Lafayette, followed by his first-career hat trick in the victory over Colgate. With 27 goals, Mirabito finished fourth among the nation s freshmen in goals and seventh with 33 points. His goal total is fifth all-time among freshmen and his 33 points is eighth all-time. Tallied three points six different times during the season, and scored in every game. WELCOME BACK TO THE BIG MAN... There is no question that the return of junior Ian Dingman should bolster what should be an already strong offense. Dingman returns after scoring 62 points as a sophomore and garnering second-team All-America honors while helping to the 2004 national title game. The 62 points were the sixth most in school history and the second most by a sophomore in school history, behind only Brendan Schneck s 78 points in His 36 goals were tied for the 13th most in a single season. He is one of four players in school history to score 100 points in his first two seasons at the Academy, joining Mike Herger ( ; 109 points), James Lewis ( ; 110 points) and Brendan Schneck ( ; 121 points).

He led NAPS to a 10-1 record a year ago which featured wins over Army's JV team, as well as Army's prep school. Coaching has been in the Moran family bloodline for years. Ryan's father, Jack, has been a successful lacrosse and football coach for the past two decades at Chaminade High School on Long Island. Ryan's great uncle, Richie, was a standout lacrosse player at Maryland ( ) before becoming one of the most successful lacrosse coaches in the country. He led Cornell to three national titles and is a member of the National Lacrosse Hall of Fame. A 2003 graduate of Maryland, Moran served several roles for the Terrapins during his four-year career. During his freshman and sophmore seasons, he was a short stick defensive midfielder who contributed in the face-off game by playing on the wing, or taking the draws if needed. As a junior and senior, Moran's focus turned to the offense where he played the majority of the time at the midfield, but also played attack. In those two seasons he scored a combined 39 goals, and added 11 assists, this after not scoring a goal in either of his first two years.

6 HEAD COACH RICHIE MEADE... North Carolina (1976) at (12th) Overall (16th) After leading the Midshipmen to back-to-back NCAA Tournament appearances for the first time since the 1992, 93 and 94 seasons, 2004 National Coach of the Year Richie Meade enters his 16th season as a collegiate head coach and 12th at the Naval Academy knowing there is unfinished business. Though playing in the 2004 National Championship thrust back into the national limelight, the Mids fell two goals short of claiming their first NCAA lacrosse title in 2004 and two goals shy of returning to the national semifinals in 05. The shortcomings have left a void for Meade and his Midshipmen, but they eagerly await the opportunity to battle for the National Championship. Meade has led the Mids to eight or more wins in five of the last-six seasons, including the last two years in which posted a school-record 15 wins in 2004 and the second-most wins in 2005 with 12. owns a two-year 12-1 (.923) record in Patriot League action and has won at least a share of the regular-season title twice and has won the tournament twice. After playing in the 2004 National Championship, the hunger to make a return trip was a driving force throughout the 2005 campaign. It was that drive that helped the Mids overcome obstacles thrown their direction every step of the way, which included multiple injuries. Despite being short-handed and banged up most of the season, the Mids produced a 12-4 record, claimed their second-consecutive Patriot League Tournament title and made a return trip to the NCAA Tournament as the fifth seed. The Mids produced a first-round victory over Delaware at -Marine Corps Memorial Stadium, but dropped a two-goal decision against sixth-ranked Virginia at Homewood Field in Baltimore in the quarterfinals. The last time won back-toback first round games was the 1987, 88 and 89 seasons in which the Mids claimed opening-round wins over Brown, Harvard and Penn, respectively. Seven of s last eight games of the season were against nationally-ranked opponents and the Mids posted a 4-3 record which featured a pair of victories over arch rival Army. has won ninestraight games against the Black Knights, claiming eight-consecutive N-Stars. The Midshipmen also posted a 9-8 win over Maryland during that eightgame stretch, their first win over the Terps in Annapolis since It also marked the first time since 1980 and 81 in which has won back-toback contests against Maryland.
