I like lacrosse. I went to games at my first collegeâŚthey played dII, I believe. Lax is fun to watch. I might come to 1 or 2 games a yearâŚabout the same amount of baseball games I go to nowâŚ
oh okay i get it - sorry about the title IX confusion - i have never actually read it - i just know what iâve understood from others - but i see your point now - the thing is everyone was always talking about adding sports, so I figured thats what was required.
On to the real question - I would support a lacrosse team - Its a fun game to watch. In highschool one of my coaches actually told me that he thought it would be the next biggest thing on a highschool level to football in a few years - it just hasnt caught on yet - but if that happened Iâm sure it would reflect onto the college level
If/when we get a football teamâŚ
Look out for womens field hockey and Equestrian.
The Equestrian club team is a new sport here at UNCC but already a very successful one. They have a coach who won the national championship 3 years ago. When I say National Championship, I mean the real deal, not the âclubâ nat. championship. They are a club team but they compete in meets against other schoolsâ REAL team (by real I mean Varsity); schools including:
Duke, UNC, ECU, Virginia Tech, Virginia Intermont, Wake Forest, Saint Andrews, NC State and othersâŚ
And they BEAT Them all.
Currenty the season just finished and UNCC finished 3rd, 4 points behind St. Andrews (an Equestrian School) and behind defending National Champions Virginia Intermont, in argueably the toughest region in the United States.
So, just to let you guys know⌠here are the probable title IX teams once we get football.

In addition to everything uncommon pointed out, Iâd like to add that the equestrian team has expressed support to the football cause as per Jimmyhatâs âIf you want football, READ THISâ thread.

âŚso whatâdya know - some acc schools actually do man up and play us in something occasionally⌠or women up⌠or whateverâŚ
field hockey though? wouldnt that require a turf field?
..so what'dya know - some acc schools actually do man up and play us in something occasionally... or women up... or whatever...field hockey though? wouldnt that require a turf field?
NoâŚI believe the field is smaller than a soccer fieldâŚgrass works in the games Iâve seen. Field hockey is fun to watch. Itâs like polo without the horses but coolerâŚ
If you want Lacrosse, itâll have to be the womenâs version. We canât add menâs lacrosse & football per Title 9.
Yes, field turf would be required. They have a required switchover date but I donât remember what it is.
Wake Forest has played on it for several years and theyâre a great field hockey school (7 consecutive national semi-final appearances, 3 NCAA championships: 2002, 2003, 2004).
Field turf is long lasting too, high cost to install but little to no upkeep for 7-10 years.
Iâll donate if they invite me to the Lax Stripper Parties! LOL.
I was thinking Title IX problems. Seems to me that a Lacrosse team wouldn't be too expensive. How many scholarships does a Lacrosse program offer?
I finally found the answer to that question: 12.69 for a division 1 team
