2024 Schedule...

Not sure if it’s true or not. Better than having to play at Homewood. If they are playing UNC in a neutral site game as well, I can’t imagine they are also playing Princeton in a neutral site game as well.


As long as Hop is losing the home game.

It looks like Hopkins is indeed the home team. I’m guessing they find a neutral field for the 2025 matchup?

Stealing this from a Hopkins fan but last years Crown City classic against High Point and Jacksonville had less than 1k fans. Having SU and Hopkins involved should drive up ticket sales but I’m still not sure I understand the reasoning for having the game in Charlotte.

There isn’t much of a recruiting benefit (unlike last years game against UNC in DC). I don’t see a #growthegame angle since Chapel Hill and Durham are 2 hours away. Hopkins is due to play UNC in North Carolina next season anyway. Not sure SU will, as I think the Duke game is in Syracuse and the UNC game is neutral field, but the ACC tournament is in NC, so they hopefully will. Any other normal year they would play at least once in North Carolina. Maybe organizers are throwing a decent amount of money at them? Just seems strange.
 
Small point but we have been on a 2 and 2 streak with hop for a bit now. 16-17 at hop, 18-19 in the dome, 20 and 2022 at hop, and last year in the dome. You could technically say we are owed another home game to complete the cycle, but I will at least take not having to play at homewood after playing in the dome. The band will likely be harder to hear!

Front row middle blue section.. $35 +Tax each
 
Any one but navy blue.

(FFS...that's Virginia)

I don't hate the blue for 1-2 games a season but what's the deal with the gray part, they couldn't make that orange? Also not a fan of the Orange chrome, would much prefer to go back to the regular shade of Orange they wore for years.

Syracuse Athletics can't get away from duct tape gray.

Damn you, Nike!!
 
Color me biased (or Orange) but I thought the all-Orange unis (helmet/jersey/shorts) that 'Cuse wore on the road in the mid-teens was the most distinctive look in all of D-1 lacrosse. Sigh.

MD Cuse fan... beg to differ!

The metallic orange helmet would look primo combined with all white (home) and all navy (away)
