Ohio State  came in at a 3 seed and showed what they were really about by beating Towson  11-10.  It was a back and fourth game but Ohio State prevailed in the semifinals for Ohio  state to go to the championship. Next, Maryland came in at a 1 seed and they didn’t waste there time to  show what they are about. They  beat Denver  9-8 in a close game then went on to the Championship to beat Ohio State 9-6.
