Pretty incredible schedule for WLax. Playing all the best teams. Likely the toughest schedule in the NCAA.

Don't know about Skane, but Izzy Scane should be back and ready to go.Is Skane back and healthy?

She's back.
Which is not good, given that they were in the finals last year and lost to #1 UNC by a single goal.Cats come in at #4 in pre-season ranking.

What’s the atmosphere like for LAX? I’m thinking maybe I’ll make the trip in for a game this year (though, yeesh, only one home game in April).ST renewals are out. We get assigned seating this year LOL

See, I’m such a good lax fan I had no idea NU played indoors…I watch a maximum of two games a year at this point.They're a lot of fun. Not too many students though there is usually a contingent of football players at games given they're up at the Fieldhouse a good portion of the day anyway. Lots of grade school and high school age girls. I think the season ticket base is a lot of the old timers (I guess I qualify lol) that basically have ST's for every sport. Obviously a good chunk of crowd is parents (of both teams).
Don't lock yourself into a Martin Stadium April game. Indoor games at the Fieldhouse are very nice.
They preschedule. NU doesn't play outdoors in Evanston until March 26.Do they preschedule in or out, or is it simply based on weather?
If NU started a men's team, I would want to keep Johns Hopkins in the B1G. They're a lacrosse power and, since they're also an academic power, if it opens any doors to cooperation on that front, that's a good thing.If NU started a team, the carpetbagging JHU Bluejays could be booted out of the B1G
I wish NU would start a men's team. The fieldhouse would make NU a popular early season location for many of the northern powers in February and March. Although the demographics of the sport are changing, the cost of an NU education would not deter many players from the traditional powers. NU has the facilities in place and the men's team could be built on the coattails of the women's team. They even have a convenient men's coach in assistant coach Scott Hiller. 12.6 scholarships do not go very far in a 35-40 man roster but Duke and ND have made it work.

You have not experienced JHU fans. JHU lacrosse has declined in recent years but at its' height, JHU fans felt they were the entitled royalty of lacrosse and expected to be treated as such. If JHU lost, they were intolerable whiners.If NU started a men's team, I would want to keep Johns Hopkins in the B1G. They're a lacrosse power and, since they're also an academic power, if it opens any doors to cooperation on that front, that's a good thing.
As I've stated several times before, that's a dumb idea.What sport would you downgrade? I’d vote men’s swimming and diving.
Is NU hurting for money with all their B1G bucks? They should just add another women's team.What sport would you downgrade? I’d vote men’s swimming and diving.
The only B1G sports that NU women don't currently compete in are Track, Gymnastics and Rowing.Is NU hurting for money with all their B1G bucks? They should just add another women's team.
Who said it has to be a B1G sport? They just need to balance the men's schollies with the women's; the conference doesn't matter. NU has a beach; they could field a beach volleyball team. They could field a rifle team.The only B1G sports that NU women don't currently compete in are Track, Gymnastics and Rowing.

Adding more women's teams.If we add men’s lacrosse something has to go in order to balance Title IX. We can downgrade swimming and diving like we did men’s fencing. Heck, we don’t even have a men’s cross country team. I prefer to keep wrestling along with men’s tennis and golf. What other options are there if we are going to add men’s lacrosse?
The other option would be not adding men's lacrosse. Men's lacrosse is a much different animal than women's lacrosse, and I believe it would take us a long time to be a factor nationally Plus, we have a rich history of highly successful men's swimmers, including NCAA and Olympic champions.If we add men’s lacrosse something has to go in order to balance Title IX.
