Despite reaching the semifinals of the Men’s Collegiate Lacrosse Association National Championship for the seventh year in a row, the #5 UCSB men’s club lacrosse team was unable to get a shot at repeating their 2006 championship with a 12-8 loss to #1 BYU.

The loss ends a streak of national championship finals appearances for the Gauchos that began in 2003.

“For the last seven years there has been turnover with the guys,” UCSB Head Coach Mike Allan said. “And the program has stayed competitive with the top four teams in the nation.”
