2025 schedule is out. Just 6 home games and we play teams like Iona and Siena on the road. OMG how this program has fallen. Never thought i would see it come to this.

Ok so we beat Iona, playing its first college lacrosse game ever, 20-2...not much to take away from this but a win is a win to start the season.

We're picked 6th in the conference out of 8 teams that says something.

Preseason polls aren't always very accurate. Look at the MBB poll from Oct 2024:

Just pointing it out for sure they're not accurate so are you saying JoJo we're a better team then the prediction??

Time will tell, TripleC.

I don't know anything about the other CAA teams, but I do think we have a lot of hungry, talented athletes who will be competing for playing time this season. Here are two:

We dominate Wagner17-5 today
Rory Jones with four goals also a couple of new names scoring three goals each
We started strong and ended strong. Only weakness. I see so far is the face off where we were fair at best.

Stu - Hope you are doing well. So far so good, but creme puff schedule so far. I hope this program can find its way back.

So for you guys that know something about lacrosse is this like P5's getting fat in the beginning of the season off of mid-majors?

Iona and Wagner much lower competition than CAA teams
Maybe on par with Hampton

Actually Iona is better than Hampton
And only their second game at a D1 level I only beat Hampton on the road13-9
Hampton open the season with a 23-3 loss against Mercer

We have another home game -- Siena, Friday, 2 pm:

Siena played its first game last week, losing 9-7 to BU. Conor Hufnagel, who was here for two years, but didn't get much playing time, led Siena with 4 goals.

JoJo, thought Siena was a road game...

Just saw that, thanks! Date changed too!

Anyone watching the beat down being deliver by Siena at Shuart this afternoon. Thought the lacrosse program could not sink much lower but unfortunately i was quite wrong.

17 - 11 Siena is the final. We suck.

Horrible showing. Don’t know anything about Siena but this beardown has to be embarrassing.

Nice win by men's lax. 13 - 12 in OT over SJU.
