Weekday lacrosse games aren’t the most exciting on paper, but can provide some good excitement if you tune in to some of these games. And it’s rare that there’s a top five matchup on a weekday. The highlight of the work week comes from Division III, where a top five matchup will take place Wednesday in Maryland, with No. 2 Lynchburg taking on No. 5 Salisbury. This game was originally…

They also are almost ready to compete for a Patriot League title, or at least a chance to play in the conference’s tournament. Much of the early success for the young program can be attested to recruiting, and after a 9-5 victory over Providence on Saturday, which opened with a goal…
