The second-seeded men's lacrosse team discovered its quarterfinal opponent Saturday when Loyola topped Georgetown, 11-9, in Baltimore, Md.
The Hoyas and Greyhounds traded goals for more than half of the game, but a third quarter burst put Loyola up 9-5, and another gave them an 11-7 lead with only a few minutes remaining.
Georgetown quickly to pull within two, but the Greyhounds' goalie, Jason Born, clamped down for the remaining minutes to keep the Hoyas at bay. Born made a career-high 21 saves on the day, including 12 in the fourth quarter.
The Greyhounds' biggest win this year by far was a 14-13 thriller over Syracuse on April 7.
Princeton and Loyola have not met since 1993, when the Tigers beat the Greyhounds, 12-6, in the semifinals of the NCAA tournament.
