Not sure if anyone here is following UM Lacrosse, but this scrappy bunch is going for their National Championship!! They are seeded 4th. They need lots of support, they aren't supported by the Athletics Department and are raising all their own travel monies.

Here's the latest!

Go Griz!! :wink:
 
I wasn't even aware that UM had a LaCrosse team. I know it is a club sport but after reading about the team in the Missoulian I have started to follow them. I hope that the game is on my sports TV package. I have noticed that some LaCrosse games have been shown.
Hopefully they will raise the $7000.00 for travel expenses.
Congradulation to them.
Go Griz LaCrosse.
 
I was surprised to see them practicing the other day...I also had no idea.
I think it's a great sport with very fast action to watch.
Way better than soccer.

It's hockey without the ice... :)
 
Good way to describe it. I love Hockey.

Wasn't Jim Brown one of the all time great Lacrosse players?

Yes, he was, and playing lacrosse definitely influenced his NFL career too. Here's a good link on him...

Huzzah to them! Congratulations all-around.

Can't wait to see what next season brings. 100% returning... :)
 
Greetings!

For those who are following UM Lacrosse (or want to follow) the only home game of the Fall preseason is going to be this SUNDAY October 16th at 2pm at Dornblaser Field. They will be taking on Montana State.

Montana beat Montana State 14-5 in Bozeman two weeks ago so it should be a great game. Regular season starts in the Spring with all players returning from last season. :thumb:

There is an article in the student newspaper today, but the website is down so I can't link to it at the moment. I'll try later.
 
Been a while since anything was said about these guys....Doing a great job! Next stop, the Championships...
