Duke presents the new season's captains

Duke University men's lacrosse head coach has announced the appointment of Ned Crotty, Sam Payton, Max Quinzani and Parker McKee as team captains for the 2010 season. The quartet of veterans will lead the Blue Devils in their quest for a fourth straight ACC Championship and NCAA Tournament appearance.

Crotty and Payton both served as captains in 2009, while Quinzani and McKee also earned their teammates recognition for their leadership skills. The captains are decided solely on a team vote.

"I'm delighted that the team overwhelmingly vote to return [Ned Crotty] and [Sam Payton] as captains this year," Danowski said. "It shows great confidence in their abilities to lead the team."

"For Max and Parker, I'm really happy for them," Danowski said. "These two guys came here not knowing what to expect or if what the program was going to be. They have been rewarded for their loyalty and vision of what could be for Duke lacrosse. These four guys will undoubtedly do great things for us on and off the field of competition this year."

Hopefully the Blue Devils can get to a championship and them and UNC can battle it out, of course UNC will win but there's nothing like a Duke vs. UNC game, in any sport..
