While the number of participants in lacrosse continues to increase rapidly, the number of college programs adding teams has remained relatively stagnant.
So it’s noteworthy whenever a college adds a program.
That was the case this week when Mount Olive in North Carolina announced it would be fielding a men’s team starting with the 2013 season. It will compete at the Division II level.
Former St. Andrew’s coach Mike Lawson was named as the first coach in program histroy.
Here’s more info on Mount Olive’s addition of lacrosse.
