CHARLOTTE, N.C. – In its first year in the newly formed Big South women's lacrosse conference, the Davidson Wildcats earned the right to host the league tournament at Ricardson Stadium, April 26 & 28, after securing the No. 1 seed with a perfect record in league play as announced by the league office Sunday.
The inaugural women's lacrosse championship is presented by Musco Sports Lighting and features the top four teams in the final league standings.
The Wildcats finished the Big South season with a perfect 7-0 conference record to win the outright regular-season title and the right to serve as host.
