Just under 10,000 people showed up for the women’s final on Sunday night, while 29,000 fans made their way down Broad Street to take in the men’s final on Monday afternoon.

Going into the national championship, Duke face-off specialist Brendan Fowler had already earned the NCAA single-season record for face-off wins.

After all, it was on his shoulders that Duke became the national champions, going on a 16-6 run from the second quarter until the end of the game to come back from an early Syracuse lead, ultimately winning, 16-10. Fowler won 20 of 28 face-offs, allowing Duke (16-5) to maintain possession for the majority of the contest. “Obviously winning face offs and getting the ball back makes it a lot easier to score goals,” Fowler said.
