Notre Dame's men's lacrosse team secured their second consecutive national championship with a commanding 15-5 victory over Maryland. The Kavanagh brothers, Chris and Pat, played pivotal roles in the win. Chris scored five goals, tying the program record for goals in an NCAA Tournament game, while Pat set a program record with five assists in a tournament game. The victory was highlighted by Chris's hat trick and his 22 points in the tournament, just three shy of the record. Goalkeeper Liam Entenmann, from Chaminade High School in Long Island, also made a significant contribution with 16 saves. This win marks Notre Dame's second title in program history. Kevin Corrigan's team has now achieved back-to-back national championships.

WATCH: 2-time national champ Pat Kavanagh credits the famed Thompson Brothers (Lyle and Miles) as an early inspiration for the “crazy trick shots” he and brother Chris brought from Long Island to #NotreDame lacrosse. “5150” indeed. https://t.co/68nRpVdxUk

one of the most dominant teams in any sport I’ve ever seen at ND. @NDlacrosse stamping an all-time season.
Gooooooo Irish! @NDlacrosse @NotreDame ☘️☘️☘️☘️☘️ https://t.co/Ws08nea8Wa
It's all Kavanaghs. Pat has set the program record for assists in an NCAA Tournament game (5) and Chris has tied the program record for goals in an NCAA Tournament game (5). #GoIrish☘️ https://t.co/dVvKh33TXM
The Kavanagh brothers are in the conversation for best duo in sports right now. They’re unbelievable to watch @NDlacrosse
The lax equivalent of an ally-oop dunk: A high pass from Will Angrick across the crease that Chris Kavanagh jumped up for and slammed into the cage in one motion. Notre Dame up 13-4 midway through third quarter. Kavanagh now has 22 points in the tourney, 3 shy of record.
THATS THREE FOR NOTRE DAME’S CHRIS KAVANAGH https://t.co/p7x15QgDdm
Bullseye. 🎯 Make that a hatty for Chris Kavanagh. 📺 ESPN #NCAAMLAX x @NDlacrosse https://t.co/ZrMu4Gf6RW
ANOTHER ONE! Chris Kavanagh wraps around the crease and finishes high. Watch on ESPN. #GoIrish☘️ https://t.co/ecpQU2kthZ
While we wait for the DI men’s lacrosse championship game between @NDlacrosse and @TerpsMLax to begin, here’s the story on @AdelphiMLax winning the DII title in rousing fashion yesterday ⤵️ https://t.co/Bh5LxdAM8s
Ready? This could take a while, but here are all of the Long Island players who just won the DII National Championship for @AdelphiMLax! The thread:
If Adelphi & Notre Dame win their men's lacrosse titles we could have championship goalies for all 3 divisions who went to high school in the same Long Island town: Notre Dame's Liam Entenmann at Chaminade Adelphi's Dylan Renner at Mineola Tufts' Conner Garzone also at Chaminade
Three goals is a hat trick. But what do you call three goals in a game that are each scored AND assisted by two brothers from Long Island? It’s a Kav Trick! And yesterday it propelled @NDlacrosse to Monday’s championship game. https://t.co/iW4sWxXVEQ
