Former Alabama QB Tyler Buchner wins lacrosse national title at Notre Dame

Former Alabama quarterback Tyler Buchner is now a national champion lacrosse player.

After playing one season with the Crimson Tide, Buchner entered the NCAA transfer portal where he would return to Notre Dame, not to play quarterback, but rather pick up a lacrosse stick.

The Fighting Irish defeated Maryland 15-5 on Monday as it secured its second straight national title. Buchner came off the bench during the game as a junior midfielder.
