The wait is (almost) over.

After a historic 2025 that featured UR’s first NCAA Tournament win and an Atlantic 10 title, the Spiders men’s lacrosse team returns to Robins Stadium on Saturday, January 31.

The nine-game home slate kicks off against 2025 national runner-up Maryland and features top opponents like Virginia, Georgetown, Delaware, and Saint Joseph’s — all leading up to the 2026 A-10 Championships this April.

If you’ve been counting down the seconds, we’re right there with you.
