Description

Lacrosse legend Bob Scott describes Johns Hopkins’s 2005 men’s lacrosse season as “the greatest within the university’s history.” The last time the Blue Jays claimed the NCAA lacrosse championship, in 1987, Head Coach David Pietramala used to be at the field as a sophomore defenseman. In Undefeated, photographer James T. Van Rensselaer and author John Jiloty of Inside Lacrosse magazine tell the exciting story of the Blue Jays’ perfect season and their dramatic play within the NCAA tournament.

Van Rensselaer’s spectacular color photographs capture this unforgettable season in all its grit and glory. His lens brings you so close you’ll be able to feel the intensity of a the most important faceoff, hear the ball rip in the course of the net, see the sweat dripping into the eyes of a focused defender, and you almost have to flinch at collisions that seem only a split second away.

All of what made this season THE season for the Jays is hereā€•from the seniors who led the team to four grueling additional time victories to the young players who performed so well in memorable games against perennial powers like Duke, Virginia, and Princeton. Undefeated bears witness to a high point within the long and illustrious tradition of Hopkins lacrosse and celebrates the players who brought this system back to the top.
