Add Vermont to the 2022 schedule, Sunday 2/6 at Koskinen.

could they switch the game to Vermont for my convenience? (it would require snow shoes).

seems like a good time for a road trip … if you can find your car and dig it out.

If the ACC goes back to the traditional single round robin, I would expect we would play at Cuse 3/24-27, at UNC 3/31-4/3, home to ND 4/7-10, and home to UVA 4/14-17. Some of those games will likely be moved to Thursday night for ESPN to showcase.

Any truth to the rumor we're sticking with the 6 game ACC schedule in lieu of the ACC tournament? That would take care of the 5-team tournament problem along with the extra game to fill after the ACC Tournament. We would just flip last year's schedule. This would also hold in 2023/2024 with UVA/Syracuse as doubles instead of UNC/ND.

Congrats to Kenny Brower, Jake Caputo, Jake Naso, and Brennan O’Neill, who were today named to the 23-man U.S. roster for next year’s U-20 world championship.

Duke and Yale co-lead with four selections each.

Penn is back on the schedule after missing last year due to Ivy League COVID restrictions. Sat 2/26, location TBD.

Richmond @ Duke Sat 3/5 probably a noon game. https://richmondspiders.com/sports/m.../schedule/2022

We might have 1 more non-conference game along with the 6 ACC games. The delay is probably picking Th night lax games for ACCN.

Nice addition. As a volunteer assistant coach (no pay?) is he hoping to eventually become a paid assistant? Or is he part-time with a regular day job (Master of Science degree in environmental sustainability)?

You've got to love his statement, "It was any easy decision to join the Duke men's lacrosse staff as they have one goal in mind, to be champions at the end of Memorial Day weekend."

He took Ned Crotty's spot. Ned had a regular job in addition to playing at the same time.

I've pieced together the remaining schedule through unconfirmed sources except for the location and Th v. Sat of the 2 UNC games. We should get the real version pretty soon as the schedule starts in 3 weeks.
