Thanks guys. Hope to see a bunch of you college lacrosse fans out there.

Stay Warm Guys!

Wish I could be there. Good luck to everybody

Carthage has to play 5 games in one day haha wow.

Given that NCAA programs are limited to a specific number of competition days, this makes a lot of sense - and most of the other teams are playing at least 4. When ND and Army came to Minnesota last year they each played 2 long scrimmages and a full-length game. Gotta get your bang for the buck.

None of the games are full length - they'll total just over 2 games worth of actual play.

Great chance to get everyone on the field and try different combinations.

Division 3 teams are specifically limited to just one competition day, so as stated, its not uncommon to see them sneak in four to five games on these days.

Results?
