2025 Lacrosse schedule?

Post by Cluck U »

Can anyone confirm the 2025 lacrosse schedule?

IIRC, we only had 5 regular season home games last year. This year, if this is correct, it appears we have 8. :shock:

Tenn:

WLAX joining Atlantic Sun. FH still unconferenced.

From bluehens.com

"NEWARK, Del. – The University of Delaware has accepted an invitation for women's lacrosse to join the Atlantic Sun effective July 1, 2025, both organizations announced jointly on Wednesday. Women's lacrosse becomes the third program to join the ASUN after both men's and women's swimming & diving was announced last week.

The Hens will join Austin Peay, Coastal Carolina, Jacksonville, Kennesaw State, Liberty, Lindenwood, Queens and Stetson in the new nine-team league."

DC- thanks young man :D that's why I edited my post. Sad to think that our annually successful FH has to be sitting in this strange position almost into 2025. IMO -Rolf and the players deserve better from the athletic dept. Not aware if there are any defections from our program under these circumstances?

BTW- snow showers down here! My flatcoated retriever and I walked our pasture and in the woods earlier enjoying the beauty. It's a joy to walk among the volunteer beeches that retain their tan leaves way past all the other deciduous trees. I'm a dendrophile aka arborist. Thoreau comes to mind not to mention Robert Frost. Any of you folks into nature like I am? Protect our planet for our children and their children.

Looking forward to the season...figure I will make several games this season, so we should have a couple opportunities to catch up. :D

Will let you know the tailgate date...have to avoid the PSU Blue-White game (my PSU friends haven't been able to confirm that date yet).

Damn, forecast indicates it will be sunny and 31F high. Might seem like spring after these few days.

Heading down to the lacrosse scrimmage.

No tailgate…just bringing Lil’ Cluck…enjoying a little lacrosse and the bright sunshine at the Tub.

Fun day at the lacrosse scrimmage. Sunny, but chilly. 250-300 fans in attendance. The Club was open and had free access for fans - nice touch.

Our guys got themselves into a 5-1 hole, trailed 5-3 at half, but bounced back and led 8-7 at the end of the third Q. #10 Denver tied it up at 8 early in the 4th when I had to leave.

Guys were a little rusty, but they missed a day of practice (snow day) and have been practicing a lot indoors due to the low temperatures.

Physical team...loved the effort...banged bodies all over the field yet avoided penalties (first one called against our Hens was late 3rd/early 4thQ). We did well with face offs and ground balls...a good sign. Goalkeeping was solid (two Denver goals tricked in after initial stops, and our guy made some solid saves). D let up a couple goals off mistakes, but overall looked good (Denver had a couple goals on outstanding individual efforts). Offense wasn't as crisp, and I don't think we'll be winning a lot of shoot outs (not our style anyway), but we have several guys that can put the ball in the net.

It was a scrimmage, but we played some good lacrosse against one of the top teams in the nation. As one of the fans said, we can do well with the face offs and we have a good goalie. That will keep you in, and win, a lot of games.

Bonus: we have some danged fun parents and fans. :D

Bonus 2: love having several more home games this year.

Looking forward to the season.

Thanks Cluck! Attack was a question for the first time in a while. Good to see we had eight after three and competed well!
