Lacrosse Preparing for Fall Scrimmages
10/1/2019 1:07 PM | Lacrosse
Fall practice continues for the Utah lacrosse team with several scrimmages coming up.
Utah will play a Red/White game on Saturday, Oct. 5, at 10 a.m. on Crimson Field (the Ute Field practice field). The Utes will also host a round-robin tournament with BYU, Westminster and Utah Valley on Saturday, Oct. 12, beginning at 1 p.m.
Tournament Schedule (Oct. 12)
1:00 p.m. – Utah vs. Utah Valley; Westminster vs. BYU
2:15 p.m. – Utah vs. Westminster; BYU vs. Utah Valley
3:30 p.m. – BYU vs. Utah; Westminster vs. Utah Valley
All Utah games will be held at Ute Field with the non-Utah game on Crimson Field. Bleacher seating is available at Ute Field and we encourage fans to bring blankets and/or chairs for seating at Crimson Field. The Ute and Crimson Fields are located west of the McCarthey Track and Dumke Softball Stadium off South Wasatch Drive. Food trucks will be available.
Head coach Brian Holman is hoping to see the things the Utes have practiced all fall come together for a good day of scrimmages in the coming weeks.
"I'm looking for that culmination of what we've been teaching - teamwork, organization, stick work, having a high level of communication," Holman said. "I want to see the older players be more accountable. How do the freshman respond to a competitive environment? I want to see us compete, which has been an emphasis from the first day. It's going to be a unique challenge competing against three different teams with three different styles, and seeing how everyone handles that. After that we'll move into phase two of fall, when we get into a lot more technical stuff, doing more individual work and mixing in things like basketball. We'll have a good base as we push towards spring."
We're continuing to finalize the 2020 schedule, we'll post that as soon as we can!
Recognition continues for Will Manny and Marcus Holman following the PLL season. Holman earned All-Pro honors while Manny was announced as the final points and goals leader.

A tough, intangible defender, and an influential playmaker from our program's roots on Long Island join our #Ute Family.
The young men who understand, want to be here.
