Good thing for Carthage and Tri-State. Without them, there would be no college lacrosse in the midwest...

New Division III programs help fill college lacrosse void in Midwest

Aug. 23, 2007

by Clare Lochary, Lacrosse Magazine Online Staff

Butler University's abrupt cancellation of its men's lacrosse program in January was sad news. Any erosion of the game makes its fans a bit nervous, but the Bulldogs were one of the few non-Eastern-Seaboard schools sponsoring a Division I men's program, so it was particularly disheartening to see a geographic outlier expunged from the map of lacrosse.

Fortunately, for anyone interested in watching or playing lacrosse in the Midwest, it's Division III to the rescue.

Two Division III schools - Carthage College in Kenosha, Wisc., and TriState University in Angola, Ind. - have recently added both men's and women's lacrosse teams.

Yeah, of course no REAL college lacrosse in the midwest right? HA I would love to see the top teams in the CCLA play these teams. It would be a close game, for a quarter or so.

This article is so bad I can hardly comment. First off, What about Adrian? They don't even get all the facts right about varsity lacrosse, how can we expect them to include MCLA?

is it time to start ignoring Lacrosse Magazine?

It looks like Dave Neff, Illinois Alum, is coaching at Carthage.

This is a pretty exciting step for lacrosse in Wisconsin.
