BEVERLY, Mass. — The Endicott Athletics & Recreation Department has announced schedules for the following spring varsity sports — baseball, men's lacrosse, women's lacrosse, softball, men's tennis, women's tennis, women's track and field, and men's volleyball. Meanwhile, the men's golf schedule will be posted at a later date.
Please note, with the safety of the Endicott community as our top priority, no spectators will be permitted at any Endicott home sporting event that is conducted in 2020-21.
Lastly, the format and times for all Commonwealth Coast Conference (CCC) championships have yet to be finalized.
BASEBALL
NOTES: The CCC has split up the conference into pods. Endicott will play in "Pod B" against Gordon, Suffolk, and Wentworth. Meanwhile, "Pod A" features Curry, Nichols, Roger Williams, Salve Regina, and Western New England. Weekend doubleheaders will be played in a 7-inning/9-inning game format and count towards the conference standings. If game one of the doubleheader goes into extra innings then game two will revert to a 7-inning contest. Mid-week games against league opponents and contests versus non-pod teams will not factor into the conference standings. Any additional games against opponents in Endicott's pod will not affect the conference standings. A mercy rule of 10 runs after seven frames will also be in effect for all league bouts.
MEN'S LACROSSE
NOTES: Weekend games will count towards the conference standings, while mid-week games will not except for the last week of the season (i.e., 4/28 vs. Curry).
WOMEN'S LACROSSE
NOTES: All league games will count towards the conference standings, as normal.
SOFTBALL
NOTES: Much like the CCC's baseball format, Endicott will play in "Pod B" against Gordon, Suffolk, the University of New England (UNE), and Wentworth. Weekend doubleheaders will count towards the conference standings, while mid-week games will not. Any games played against non-pod opponents also will not affect the conference standings. Any additional games against opponents in Endicott's pod will not factor into the conference standings. Regular mercy rules still apply (8 runs after 5 innings).
MEN'S TENNIS
NOTES: Endicott will compete in "Pod B" against Curry, Gordon, and Wentworth. The Gulls will play two Saturday conference matchups against each team in the pod. Any other matches against "Pod B" opponents will not affect the conference standings.
WOMEN'S TENNIS
NOTES: Endicott will compete in "Pod B" against Curry, Gordon, and Wentworth. The Gulls will play two Saturday conference matchups against each team in the pod. Any other matches against "Pod B" opponents will not affect the conference standings.
WOMEN'S TRACK AND FIELD
NOTES: The Gulls will compete in at least two meets against conference-only programs prior to the CCC Championship.
MEN'S VOLLEYBALL
NOTES: The Gulls will play in 11 regular season matches this season. All New England Collegiate Conference (NECC) matches will be played on back-to-back days, preferably weekends, or as doubleheaders. Springfield, which normally competes as an independent school, has been added to this year's NECC schedule as a scheduling partner to allow programs in the NECC and Springfield to meet the minimum match requirement to qualify for NCAA Tournament play. Lastly, Endicott will play Wentworth in a non-conference matchup on 3/31.
