Fairfield University Lacrosse is set to open the 2024 season this weekend, with the men’s and women’s teams both in action on Saturday, Feb. 10. The men will host Lehigh at noon on Conway Field at Rafferty Stadium, while the women will trek to Holy Cross for a 1 p.m. clash with the Crusaders.

Admission is free for all fans to all men’s lacrosse home games in the month of February, and for all women’s home games throughout the 2024 regular season.

Led by fifth-year head coach Andrew Baxter, Saturday’s meeting with Lehigh begins the 32nd season of varsity men’s lacrosse at Fairfield. The Stags return reigning CAA Rookie of the Year and Preseason All-CAA selection Will Consoli ’26 as well as graduate student Bryce Ford ’23, who was tabbed as a Preseason All-CAA Honorable Mention. Also in February, Fairfield will host Wagner on Saturday, Feb. 24 with complimentary admission for all fans.

Tickets for the Stags’ five remaining home games are on sale now at FairfieldStags.com/TIX. Students can claim a free ticket to every home game in every sport via the Super Stags app.

The five-time defending champions of the MAAC, Fairfield Women’s Lacrosse begins the ninth season led by Laura Field on Saturday at Holy Cross. The Stags then kick off the Rafferty Stadium ledger with back-to-back home games against UConn on Feb. 14 and SUNY Albany on Feb. 17. Fairfield was selected as the preseason favorite in the MAAC, with the graduate student trio of Lindsey Barnes ’23, Libby Rowe ’23 and Elizabeth Talluto ’23 named to Preseason All-MAAC.
