Potentially the US Lacrosse HQ in Sparks? Quite a few games are played there.

I'd guess either in Sparks or borrowing Loyola's Ridley Field or UMBC's stadium. I can't imagine having it played at the Naval Academy or Homerwood.

I don't know if I would rule out Homerwood. They have had lots of non-Hopkins games there. The lacrosse hall-of-fame is there.
Last year, Hopkins had PSU at home that weekend (Apr 16), so Hopkins will probably be at PSU that weekend. Last year, Loyola played BU at Ridley (Apr 16), so they probably will be on the road that weekend also.
UMBC's stadium seems a little small and they have Binghamton at home on Apr 15.

Navy has Lafayette at home on the Apr 15. UMd will probably be at OSU that weekend.

Another option is Stevenson. The public state finals have been held there on occasion. Nice play to watch a game.I don't know if I would rule out Homerwood. They have had lots of non-Hopkins games there. The lacrosse hall-of-fame is there.

I can’t see them playing at another D1 school that isn’t involved in the actual game. Maybe if there is a double header? Are there any high school fields that have large capacity? Penn and Duke played at a high school on Long Island last year. Obviously SU and UNC are playing in Maryland for recruiting reasons so I wouldn’t rule out a high school.

Was hoping it would be at Audi Stadium but heard it will be played at a local HS. It’s UNCs “home” game so they pick location I assume.

UNC had a fall ball matchup with OSU in 2019 at Calvert Hall.
5000 capacity, which might be enough

Well it is Wagner. Even Michigan and Rutgers thought that was schedule was a little weak.
Wagner willl probably finish with a losing record vs that schedule too. They were bad last yr and their two best players transferred to St Joes.

Shout out to DMV an AD both were spot on with the schedule info.
Only thing undetermined is where the away UNC game will be played as its listed as TBD. Seems like someplace in Maryland, interested to see how this flushes out.
A couple of quick general thoughts on the schedule itself.
Obviously SU needs to get out to a 3-0 start. Vermont, Albany and Holy Cross are all games SU should win but the first two will be no pushovers to say the least. Vermont game itself will be very interesting as SU will likely have a major issue at the X going against Vermonts AA FOGO. Defense will need to be ready to go from the start. Albany lost almost no one off of last years team but did finish 5-10 (and beat us in one of the worst games I have ever watched) so hard to know what to expect there. They do lose their goalie and appears several players who had the ability to comeback for their COVID year decided to leave. Don't look like a great team on paper but will need to see what their roster looks like before I can comment further. Holy Cross is well Holy Cross, they should be better then last years team but clearly that's a game that should be over by the end of the 1st quarter. Interesting note that Albany on Fri and Holy Cross that Sunday is the first time I can recall SU playing two games on the same weekend. Desko was never a fan and is probably shaking his head somewhere.
The 4 game stretch after that is brutal, Maryland, UNC, Duke and Hop, although 3 of the 4 are at home. Need to be 2-2 out of that stretch. Obviously Maryland is a less then stellar matchup but hopefully we can at least keep it close. Feels like we matchup well with UNC and have always played Duke well. Hop is a bit of a mystery, they should be very solid defensively but offensively they're clearly a work in progress.
Hofstra, Bonnies and Hobart next three. Again needs to be three wins. Only real concern here is probably Hobart and if they couldn't get it done last year its hard to see them doing it this year barring SU having major issues at the X and on defense (with injuries again).
The last 5 games are clearly the gauntlet and will define the season. ND, Princeton, UNC, UVA and Duke. I've given up trying to even be competitive with ND so I won't even comment on that matchup. Overall need to get at least 2 wins out of those 5 games. Ending with UVA and Duke is less then optimal but it is what it is. Good news is we only see ND and UVA once and Princeton late in the year I think gives us a better shot then an early matchup.
Overall a pretty tough schedule that won't really miss Army or Cornell if I am being honest. I like the balance and the fact that there are more "less stressful" type games. Would have liked to have had St. Bonnie or someone else real late to break up the gauntlet but overall this feels like a really good schedule and much more balanced then last years or the last few under Desko. SU should always try and play 15 regular season games.
