NCLL DIVISION I FINAL
May 3, 2009
Charlottesville-Playing through a steady rainfall, the Cavaliers battled back from a late 4 goal deficit to defeat visiting Salisbury University 13-10 in the Division I National Championship. Down 9-5, Virginia scored the next 5 out of 6 goals to even the game at 10-10 early in the 4th quarter. Dominating possession at the faceoffs, Virginia controlled over 70% of groundballs to keep their comeback hopes alive at a packed Carr's Hill field. Playing in front of a bi-partisan crowd of Maroon and Gold supporters and the Cavalier faithful, the Division I Championship was not decided until the final minutes when Virginia salted away the clock as they were led by Final Four MVP midfielder Kevin Mahoney's 4 goals. Instrumental to the comeback victory were attackmen John Pomeroy's and midfielder Scott Cortes' hat trick apiece. All-Tournament Team Goalie Jeb Bryant was just as formidable on the other side of the field with many solid stops to give Virginia a chance at victory. Senior midfielder David Sibley scored two hard fought goals to round out the top midfield production of 9 goals.

NCLL DIVISION II FINAL
May 3, 2009
Charlottesville-Completing a quest as long as their travel time from up state New York, Cortland State jumped out to a quick lead and survived a comeback bid by Lynchburg late in the 4th quarter at Carr's Hill Field on the host campus of the University of Virginia for a 12-9 victory. Led by Kevin Keown's 3 goals, Cortland's high powered offense was up to the task of taking home the coveted Frederick Cup and NCLL National Championship. Not backing down from the challenge were Brad Hannon's 4 goals as Lynchburg battled the elements to keep the outcome in question until the final whistle. Led by attackman and All Tournament Team member John Crosse and an array of capable midfielders, Cortland answered each Lynchburg comeback attempt with a quick goal of their own to keep the momentum from favoring the local red and white. Brendan Grace pitched in with 2 goals and 2 assists for the winning cause and played spectacularly throughout the weekend to capture Final Four MVP honors.
