Notes
Most 1 Goal Wins: Duke (5)
Most 1 Goal Losses: Princeton (4)
Princeton lost 3 overtime games
Both semifinal games ended in overtime, of course those match ups could have been different if you swapped out all four teams one goal game records
Virginia's second one goal loss overall came against Duke, their second time losing to the Devils, was a one goal game thanks to a 6-3 4th quarter by the Wahoos after the game had long been decided
