2021 Kentucky Colleges Lacrosse

[Bluegrasscard]

Regular season and some conference tournament play has been completed.  Overall Kentucky colleges faired well during the 2021 season. 

Bellarmine (Men) - Missed post season conference tournament when Air Force upset Richmond the last weekend of conference play.  The Knights finished 11-8 on the season. 

Centre (Men) - Won their conference tournament (Southern Athletic Association) and will play in the NCAA Div III tournament.  Overall (so far): 11-1

Centre (Women) - Reached finals of conference tournament.  Overall record: 9-4.  

Transylvania (Men) - The Pioneers are #1 seed and favored to win their conference and earn an NCAA Div III tournament bid.  Overall record (so far):  11-2

Transylvania (Women) - Won their conference and will play in the NCAA Div Women's tournament on Saturday, May 8th against SUNY Courtland.  Overall record (so far): 11-4.

 

Transylvania Men will join the College Conference of Illinois and Wisconsin (CCIW) next year.

Big day coming to Danville this Saturday. 

Centre is host to a "pod" for the first round of the DIII NCAA tournament. 

Transylvania will play #18 Colorado College at 2 p.m.

Centre will play #15 Dennison at 4 p.m.

The winners of the games above will play in the second round Sunday at Centre. 

 

I believe this is first NCAA tournament men's lacrosse games in Kentucky. 

Good luck to the Pioneers and Colonels.

Centre goes out in second round to Colorado College 19-6.

Tough to pull off two upsets in a row, even on home field.  But a great showing by Centre.  The win over Denison will be noticed in the LAX community.  This will help the Colonels and Kentucky college lacrosse, in general, with recruiting.
