Ole Miss Men's Lacrosse Club Travels to Tuscaloosa

The Ole Miss Men’s Lacrosse Club is looking to get their season back on track this weekend with games against the University of Alabama and the University of Georgia.


The Rebel’s Lacrosse Club began their season with a bit of a rocky start after suffering two loses in two weekends.


“We lost two games to West Virginia and Georgia Tech by one goal each and that close of a game can real break a teams spirit.” Rebel goalie Nick Loverde said.


Following those two demoralizing loses the Rebels hosted a three game weekend in Vaught-Hemingway stadium against Louisiana State University, South Carolina University and Auburn University. The weekend bred similar results for the Rebels after they suffered loses to both South Carolina and Auburn.


“Beating LSU in the first game definitely was a boost but then to turn right around and get beat by South Carolina and Auburn.” Rebels Head Coach John Wheat said.


After their three game weekend in Oxford, the Rebels released some of their frustrations in Memphis when they played Rhodes College destroying them by a score of 24 - 3.


The Rebels opponents this weekend are very different teams. Alabama has had a fairly successful start with only two loses to Top 25 ranked teams. Georgia however, has posted similar results to the Rebels.


This Saturday the Rebels will face off against two rival SEC schools in Tuscaloosa Alabama with hopes of getting their season back on track.
