BEVERLY, Mass. – The Endicott men's lacrosse team, ranked No. 20 in the latest Inside Lacrosse Preseason Rankings, has announced its 2016 schedule.
Endicott will play seven teams in 2016 that reached the NCAA Tournament last season including Tufts University, the two-time defending national champion, and Lynchburg who lost to the Jumbos in the title game.
Six of those seven teams on the schedule that reached the NCAA Tournament a year ago are also ranked inside the top-15 in the Inside Lacrosse Preseason rankings – Tufts (1), Lynchburg (2), Amherst (3), Bates (7), Middlebury (10), and Union (15).
