It's Summa, summa, summatime and IL's Terry Foy, Dan Aburn and — most importantly — ILPreps Director Dan Kaplan are back to recap the first 12 days of the summer recruiting circuit. An incredibly dense 80 minutes starts by discussing the standouts from Maverik Showtime, which — if history is any indicator — will have an outsized impact on informing the market for players on Sept. 1 (and, by extension, IL's Class of 2026 rankings). From there, they revisit Best in Class, ML8's High School Summer National Championship, the Prime Time Summer Invitational and Great VIII, examining the stars from each event with a heavy focus on the Class of 2026.

For the final episode of the 2024 season, IL's Terry Foy and Nick Ossello look inward, reflecting on their best and, more importantly, worst takes of the season, the funniest moments of the year, their best listener interactions and so much more.

But first, hear what it's like to break news in real time as Nick gets word of who's taking over as Merrimack's head coach.

Onto 2025!

As spring transitions to summer, Director of ILPreps Dan Kaplan brings on Detroit Country Day (Mich.) coach Chris Garland and Urbana (Md.) coach Gavin Donahue to discuss their teams run to state titles, and to kick things off, he and and Terry Foy look back at the first week of summer recruiting and look ahead to the big upcoming second weekend.

Nearly two weeks removed from the national championship game and the end of the season, IL's Terry Foy and Nick Ossello reflect on the season in total, discussing the following categories from an a non-Notre Dame and a fully Notre Dame perspective:


Best Game
Best Goal
Best Non-Goal Highlight
Best Upset
Best Player
Best Teammate
Best SSDM
Most Improved Player
Best Season-Long Coaching Performance

Check it out, and check back next week as we tackle the off-field topics for the 2024 season.

What a year in college lacrosse! We felt back in January that the 2024 season would be special, and it definitely delivered. The D-Fly and Dixie Podcast presented by Simplicity Group recaps Championship Weekend in Philadelphia, looks at USILA post-season awards and ties up some other loose ends. Dixie also makes his Tewaaraton Award prediction. 

In this week’s picnic-inspired Give & Go, the guys get excited about summer BBQs and chat about their favorite foods off the grill and on the picnic table. Also, in terrific tandem with the Fighting Irish, congratulations to the People’s Champ, chicken parmigiana, for running away with the #MaggianoMadness title.

Live from Lincoln Financial Field in Philadelphia, IL's Terry Foy and Nick Ossello unpack Notre Dame's 15-5 win over Maryland to win the program's second NCAA Championship. From Chris Kavanagh's MOP showing to the weather delay to what it's like to be in the building as a fan, they dive into the tactics and personnel behind ND's dominance, then touch on their Semifinal win over Denver and the Terrapins' 12-6 win over Virginia.

From there, they head downstairs to find attackman Jake Taylor and coach Kevin Corrigan. Come for Nick trying to pin down Taylor on who should win the Tewaaraton, Pat Kavanagh or Liam Entenmann, and stay for Corrigan's prediction for next season.
