There are 10 auto-bids to the lacrosse NCAA tournament to go along with 8 at-large bids. We are unlikely to get all 3 in unless things break our way in these last couple of weeks and either Georgetown or Marquette wins the BE bid.

Georgetown has a chance to raise their stock by knocking off #10 Virginia this weekend.

Yeah, if MU pulls off a win over #6 Duke this weekend and then #5 Denver next weekend (both home games) there's no way we don't pick up an at-large. Then we just need Georgetown to beat Virginia, PC, and get to the finals in BE tourney (and maybe some help from other conferences).

i love how well the conference has exceeded expections this year with 3 ranked teams. certainly nothing is set in stone at this point, but it would be mildly to moderately surprising if an at-large was garnered.
