Duke Lacrosse -- Up From The Ashes

This is a story that has to warm the heart of anyone with a sense of decency and fair play. After having their season canceled last year and three teammates falsely accused of rape, the Duke lacrosse team is back -- and at the top of its game.

The Duke lacrosse team defeated North Carolina 19-11 to advance to the final four of the NCAA tournament. Carolina jumped to an early 6-1 lead, but from that point on Duke outscored the Tar Heels 18-5. Last week, Duke defeated Providence 18-3, so it's becoming clear how dominant this team can be when it's clicking.

Next up is Cornell, a team that finished the season unbeaten, defeated Duke in Durham, yet somehow received only a fourth seed in this tournament. Cornell got by Albany with a 12-11 overtime victory in its quarterfinal match.

Final Four, baby --capping a season which saw their teammates vindicated and their persecutor brought down. These young men have to be the sentimental favorite of the nation -- except for rabid racists, feminists, and other moonbats.
