Army men’s lacrosse continues its march up the ladder in national polls, securing 16th in the Inside Lacrosse Media Poll and 17th in the Intercollegiate Lacrosse Association Coaches Poll this week. The Black Knights are 7-2 and sit in 3rd place in the Patriot League standings. After a strong win over Colgate last weekend, Army still has a number of tough opponents ahead prior to the Patriot League Tournament, including Boston University and #6 Loyola.

Army women’s lacrosse is also enjoying success, riding an 8-3 record with notable losses to Villanova and #10 Loyola. After a tough three game stretch, it was good to see them get back to winning against Holy Cross in midweek action. It was critical to pick up their first Patriot League win after dropping their first two.
