In a dramatic game against RIT, Stevenson University’s men’s lacrosse team won the title game of the 2013 NCAA Division III Men’s Lacrosse Championship with a 16-14 victory at Lincoln Financial Field in Philadelphia, PA.

The video captures Stevenson’s journey to Philly and making its end-goal come true. The team, motivated by the mantra “12 Feet Tall,” used the term as a visualization technique to believe no one is better than their team. The team also had the pleasure of listening to Super Bowl Champion Baltimore Ravens Head Coach John Harbaugh speak at practice. Great season Mustangs!
