Selections and seedings for the NCAA Division I, II and III men’s tournaments will be made tonight. With the influx of parity throughout all levels of lax, this year’s selections will be especially interesting.

The West Islip Lions would have been just perfect last season had it not been for an 8-7 regular-season loss to Ward Melville. Today, the two teams meet for the first time a year to the day since that May 5, 2009 meeting. It’s one of several Suffolk showdowns on tap for today.
