Women's Lacrosse Coming to Southwestern

After hefty donations, Southwestern University is launching a new program. By Sydney McMinn

Southwestern University is launching a Division III women’s lacrosse team, thanks to $6 million in donations from two former student-athletes. The new women's lacrosse team will begin competition in the spring of 2014.

“Southwestern was on the forefront when we added men's lacrosse as a varsity sport,” said Southwestern Athletics President Jake B. Schrum in a press release. “It naturally follows that women's lacrosse would also become a varsity sport at Southwestern.”


Southwestern will join the University of Dallas as the only two universities in Texas to offer varsity lacrosse for women.
