Seven days will have been the longest break in between games that Florida lacrosse has had so far this season.
Just four games into the season, Florida appears to have found its groove.
On a frigid night at Donald R. Dizney Stadium, Florida continued its recent trend of domination to win its third game in a row and move one Gator even closer to history.
Following up a breakout freshman year can put a lot of pressure on a young player, especially one who is asked to do so much.
Any successful team is made up of more than just a talented starting lineup and a well-respected head coach.
Florida’s opening day loss is a thing of the past for the Gators, even if it was just a week ago.
Florida lacrosse showed no love to Michigan on their Valentine’s Day matchup.
Florida was calling it a bounce-back game, a game to fix the problems it encountered on opening day against North Carolina, the No. 2 ranked team in the nation.
In only the second game of the regular season, Florida is looking to right the ship.
Different year, same result. In 2014, Florida opened its regular season with a game against North Carolina and was humbled by a 20-8 loss. On Saturday, the No. 4 Gators (0-1) hosted the No. 2 Tar Heels (2-0) in Florida’s regular season opener and fell 17-11.
For the second straight year, North Carolina was able to upend Florida in the Gators’ season opener. This time, however, Florida can take with it a bit more confidence heading into the regular season than in years past.
In sports, the beginning of a season is refreshing for a team.
After five successful years of playing in the American Lacrosse Conference, Florida lacrosse is taking its talents to the Big East to join one of the most competitive conferences in women’s college lacrosse.
For a team that reached the NCAA quarterfinals last season, Florida lacrosse is looking to go even further and get even stronger this year with national title implications on its mind.
Five Florida recruits for the 2015 season made an appearance at the Under Armour All-America game on Saturday in Towson, Md.
With the dissolution of the American Lacrosse Conference, Florida is moving to the Big East.
It was an important year for Florida.
As the season ended for Florida in a devastating 12-11 loss against then-No.5 seed Northwestern (14-7) on May 17, the Gators are already working toward boosting their roster for 2015.
It was a season of breaking records and defying expectations.
It was a bitter end to an incredible season.
