I’m not going to cover women’s lacrosse in any depth on this site (aside from the occasional blurb like this), but I’d be remiss to mention that Michigan Men’s Lacrosse isn’t the only top-level club team in Ann Arbor.
The women were ranked #12 by Lacrosse Magazine (HT: 412 Lax) in preseason in the WCLA, the top-level women’s club league. They opened their season on Sunday with a 20-2 scrimmage pasting of Central Michigan, and scrimmage NCAA D-III Ohio Wesleyan this Saturday at 1. The men face off against Kenyon at 7 in their final scrimmage, so if you’re going to be around for the latter, might as well make it a double-header.
Later this season, the women will face off against top-20 WCLA squads in # 1 Colorado State, # 2 Santa Clara, #4 UC Davis, # 5 Lindenwood, #6 UC Santa Barbara, # 9 BYU, # 11 UCLA, # 13 Georgia, # 16 Pittsburgh, and # 18 Minnesota. Quite the murderers row of opponents, so best of luck to the women this season.
