Check out Detroit Mercy’s 2020 schedule.

The University of Detroit Mercy men’s lacrosse team will get to enjoy playing in front of its home crowd as the Titans are set to play nine home contests as the 2020 schedule was officially released today.

Seven of the nine home games will take place on Titan Field - including the first home night game in school history against Robert Morris in March - while the other two will be indoors at Ultimate Soccer Arenas in Pontiac.

Also, make sure to read Chris’ breakdown of Detroit’s calendar.

The Detroit Mercy Titans are the 40th team in our 2020 men’s college lacrosse schedule preview series and the third team from the MAAC. Detroit Mercy finished 8-7 overall in 2019 and 5-2 in MAAC play. The Titans fell to Quinnipiac in the MAAC semifinals.

’Tis the season of giving: University of Albany lacrosse head coach Scott Marr gives Albany football a hand with its chain gang.

University at Albany football coach Greg Gattuso was standing on the sideline before Saturday’s NCAA playoff game when a member of the chain gang greeted him. “I just kind of went, hey, how are you doing,’’ Gattuso said. “I was getting ready for the game, and then I thought, he looks really familiar.”

She said “Yes!”: PSU football player Pat Freiermuth helped out former PSU lacrosse player John Von Neesen with his pregame proposal.

Before Penn State’s game against Rutgers Saturday, tight end Pat Freiermuth helped former lacrosse player John Von Nessen propose to his then-girlfriend and now-fiancée Lauren Piotrowski, also a Penn State alum.

Here’s another great clip from @LaxFilmStudy.
