Over the next 2 weeks lacrosse (6-5 overall; 2-0 in the Big 12) has a 3 game home streak, with a rivalry matchup with DU sandwiched by 2 weekend conference games. 1st off is probably the biggest Big 12 challenge of the regular season as the #4 ranked Florida Gator (10-2, 2-0) come to town this Saturday starting at 11:00 AM MT. Then, the DU Pioneers (8-5, 3-1 in Big East play) are up next in a Thursday night game. Finally, the UC Davis Aggies (5-7, 1-1) are in town Sunday (4/20) at noon for another conference matchup, the final regular season home so it's also Senior Day. (After that, there's only one game (at Cincinnati) left in the regular season.)

In the NCAA RPI ratings (for games through 4/6, https://www.ncaa.com/rankings/lacrosse-women/d1/ncaa-womens-lacrosse-rpi), CU is up to #21 in RPI, while Florida is #6, DU #36 and UCD #69 .

As has been the case throughout the season for home games, video coverage for all 3 games will be available for those who have a premium ($) ESPN+ subscription. (More info and links available near the bottom of this post.)

Go Buffs!!!

Colorado Lacrosse to Face No. 4 Florida in Big 12 Home Opener​

The Buffs will go head-to-head with the Gators for just the fifth time ever, their seventh ranked opponent this season

By: Malala Pyle, Assistant Director of Athletic Communication

BOULDER –
The Colorado lacrosse team (6-5, 2-0 Big 12) hosts No. 4 Florida (11-2, 2-0) for its Big 12 home opener on Saturday, April 12. The Buffs' game against the Gators will be at Prentup Field at 11 a.m. MT.

The Buffs look for their first program win over a top-five opponent in their fifth meeting all-time with the fourth-ranked Gators. This is the second time CU has faced a top-five opponent this season and the seventh time battling an IWLCA-ranked opponent. The last time Colorado met with Florida was in Gator country in 2020, before the COVID-19 pandemic ended the spring season (Feb. 8). The Black and Gold lost by just one goal, 11-10, the closest margin in the rivalry thus far.

Colorado wrapped up its road stint last week against Arizona State with a win over the Sun Devils, 14-13 (April 6). Three CU athletes ended the game with hat tricks, including graduate attacker Kendall Havill, who reached her 200th career point. Freshman goalkeeper Elena Oh recorded a clutch save that kept the Buffs from overtime and earned her Big 12 Freshman of the Week.

And, congrats to goalie Elena Oh for the 5th weekly conference honor! (It's her 1st frosh of the week acknowledgement after 4 goalie of the week honor.)

 
Watch out for how good this team can get with Oh in net, even this year, but especially over the next 3.
 
The Buffs went up early in this 1 4-1, and in spite of FL scoring with 17 seconds left still lead 7-6 heading into the half.

Colorado Ready for Final Regular Season Home Games Against No. 24 Denver and UC Davis​

The Buffs take on their eighth ranked opponent in the Pioneers and host the Aggies for Senior Day

By: Malala Pyle, Assistant Director of Athletic Communication

BOULDER –
The Colorado lacrosse team (6-6, 2-1 Big 12) wraps up regular season home competition with No. 24 Denver (9-5, 3-1 Big East) on Thursday, April 17, and UC Davis (5-8, 1-2 Big 12) on Sunday, April 20. Both games will be at Prentup Field, and opening draws are set for 3 p.m. MT and 12 p.m. MT, respectively.

The Buffs look to snap a two-game losing streak in their series against the 24th-ranked Pioneers on Thursday. This is the 12th meeting of the teams all-time and the eighth time this season that Colorado is facing an IWLCA-ranked opponent. The last time CU met with Denver was last season on the Pioneers' turf, where the Buffs lost, 14-8. Going into their ninth meeting, the Buffs have beaten the Aggies in every matchup thus far, including in the Pac-12 Tournament last season, 13-10. CU has held UC Davis to seven or fewer goals in five of the eight games.

Colorado opened Big 12 play at home last week against No. 4 Florida. Graduate attacker Kendall Havill recorded her second game in a row with four goals, her second hat trick at CU; junior midfielder Lily Assini reached her 100th career draw control; and freshman goalkeeper Elena Oh had her third game with double-digit saves (11). Though the Buffs led in the first half and won in the draw circle (19-10), they fell to the Gators, 15-10.

After DU scored the 1st 3 and it took CU over 9 minutes to get on the board, it's tightened up and CU only trails 5-6 at the half.
