Patriot League expected to expand lacrosse tournaments to six teams, giving Navy hope

The Patriot League is expected to announce at some point this week it is expanding its men’s and women’s lacrosse tournaments by two teams, multiple sources have told The Capital.

When the Patriot League initially announced the format for spring sports, it split schools into North and South Divisions. Initially, the Patriot League tournament for men’s and women’s lacrosse was going to be limited to four teams — the top two finishers from the North and South.

Under the updated plan expected to receive final approval this week, the quarterfinal round of the Patriot League tournament would be reinstated.
