2026 Schedule Tidbits

[Archbold44]

I think 11 is the minimum. And there's a maximum that includes scrimmages. Maybe it's 16. I'm sure someone else knows for sure.

Such a wide gap.

 

[OrangeXtreme]

17.15.5.1 Maximum Limitations -- Institutional.
(a) Men. An institution shall limit its total playing schedule with outside competition during the institution's playing season to 17 dates of competition, except for those dates of competition excluded under Bylaws 17.15.5.3 and 17.15.5.4

ACC Tournament and NCAA Tournament doesn't count.

Scrimmages against an Alumni Team doesn't count.

Two scrimmages in the same day counts as only one "date of competition".

Believe it was 18 at one point with fall and spring scrimmages but think its constantly changing

As usual OE is all over it

Gonna need this squad to run up the score against Hobart and get immediate reports so I can lurk in the weeds to see Hobart fans react to it.

SU's likely to experiment with a lot of lineup combos and get a lot of guys PT in the second half. I wouldn't anticipate a 23-4 type of game.

I don't think starters will see much time in the second half, Gait and Co. will want to see what the youngsters can do against another team. Also, you don't want to risk injury in a meaningless scrimmage.

I don't expect main line players in the 2nd half, just want to see reports starters on starters was a lopsided affair.

 

[BBCuse]

I was sent a few game times - I guess they could change since they aren't on schedule.

St. Joe's - 12pm
Maryland - 6pm
Duke - 2pm
UVA - 4pm
Colgate - 1pm

Happy to see that Maryland faceoff time.

Reason 1,567 why having two indoor facilities is so huge for SU. Gonna be about 7 tomorrow and 70 inside Ensley.

yes on a lot of things. tho unless something's changed very recently, 10 has been the mimimum of games for a very long time.

 

[JeremyCuse]

Take it for what its worth but apparently St. Joes beat Hopkins in a scrimmage today and was up 9-4 at half against the starters.

It's going to be a long year for the Jays.

Obviously all the usual caveats about scrimmages but it's going to take some time to work out all the new players in the lineup. Best I can really hope for is an upward trajectory and some competitive games by the end of the season.

Their chance to win it all was two years ago when Million's blue cleats were indiscernible from the blue Towson crease (just let me have this one). Tough for a guy like Collison but they're another year (or likely two) away from being truly competitive again imo.

Watching Cuse and Hop lose in back to back games from those stands was not a fun day.

The Orange should be scared of everyone, that's how you don't lose to teams you shouldn't. All it takes is a hot goalie and fogo for an upset.

They shouldn’t be scared of anyone ever. They should, however, have respect for everyone.

Yeah, I probably used the word "scared" incorrectly, but respect didn't seem to carry the sense of urgency I would like to see them play with consistently.

 

[Powellfan]

While we wait, some other results …

Sounds like Rutgers 17 BU 11
Georgetown 13 Maryland 3 (????)
UVA beat Navy but was close at halftime
Penn State lopsided win over Army after losing to Loyola earlier.

Take all results with an oceans worth of salt.

 

[LSyndicateM]

Are any of these games available anywhere? I have a hankering to watch some lacrosse.

Scrimmages aren't usually available to the public.
