5 BLUE DEVILS EARN ALL-AMERICA Justin Guterding, Brad Smith and C sade Van Raaphorst garnered USILA first team accolades for the first time in their careers to highlight Duke s five selections. JT Giles-Harris collected third team honors and Peter Conley honorable mention. Duke s three first-team picks are the most since having three in 2008. Van Raaphorst is the first close defenseman to earn the distinction since Casey Carroll in 2007. DUKE RETURNS TO CHAMPIONSHIP WEEKEND With the 14-9 win over Johns Hopkins, Duke returns to championship weekend for the first time since winning the title in 2014. This marks the first trip for the Duke seniors, a distinction much discussed prior and during the season. The Blue Devils are the lone program to have every one of its senior classes advance to a national semifinal since 2004. Maryland, Johns Hopkins and Syracuse were all close, but all suffered droughts of more than four years at one point. DUKE, DANOWSKI AIMING FOR NCAA TITLE 4 Duke, the winner of the 2010, 2013 and 2014 NCAA crowns, is one of eight programs to own multiple NCAA titles as it goes for No. 4 this weekend.

JOHN DANOWSKI 2007-P 398-193 (35 seasons) 179-54 at Duke (11 seasons) Cemented as one of the top coaches in college lacrosse, John Danowski has led the Duke men s lacrosse team to unprecedented success and himself to the top over the Division I men's lacrosse wins list. Danowski was introduced as Duke s eighth head men s lacrosse coach on July 21, 2006, and quickly led the Blue Devils to some of the most successful lacrosse seasons in school history, to three NCAA Championships in five seasons. In Danowski s 11 years at the helm of the Blue Devils lacrosse program, he has compiled an impressive 179-54 record in leading Duke to seven ACC regular season titles and four ACC tournament titles, eight straight appearances in the national semifinals from 2007-14, four in the NCAA title match and ultimately to the 2010, 2013 and 2014 national titles. The 2014 NCAA crown put Danowski, a winner of 398 career games, among a small group of nine coaches to win three national titles and among eight to capture consecutive crowns. Meanwhile, Duke s run of eight straight NCAA semifinals rank as the second most of any program since 2000 with Syracuse. Most recently, Danowski passed Dom Starsia as the winningest Division I lacrosse history, garnering his 376th win with a 13-6 victory over Jacksonville in 2017. A winner of nearly 80 percent of his games at Duke, the individual awards Blue Devil players have garnered is equally impressive. In 11 seasons, Danowski mentored 64 All-America selections, 41 All-ACC choices, two Tewaaraton Trophy winners, a pair of USILA Attackman of the Year honorees, a USILA Defenseman of the Year, three USILA Midfielder of the Year award recipients and 21 USILA Scholar All-America picks. While the success on the field is unsurpassed in Duke lacrosse history, the student-athletes excellence in the classroom also is unrivaled. The Blue Devils consistently lead the ACC in All-ACC Academic picks as well as players on the ACC Academic Honor Roll.
