SUNY Brockport is proud to welcome USA Lacrosse, the Rochester Sports Commission, college coaches, families, and some of the top high school girls' lacrosse players in the nation to campus this Memorial Day weekend for the 93rd annual USA Lacrosse Women's National Tournament.
The prestigious national event will take place May 23-24, with all games being played at SUNY Brockport. The tournament will feature approximately 600 of the nation's top high school girls' lacrosse players competing on regional all-star teams from across the country. Champions will be crowned in three divisions, and all games will be streamed live on USALacrosseTV.com.
"We are thrilled to welcome USA Lacrosse and the Women's National Tournament to SUNY Brockport," said SUNY Brockport Athletic Director Dr. Erick Hart. "This is a tremendous opportunity to showcase our campus, our facilities, and the Brockport community while supporting one of the premier events on the girls' lacrosse calendar. We are proud to serve as the host site for an event that brings together elite student-athletes, families, coaches, and lacrosse supporters from across the country."
Dating back to 1933, the USA Lacrosse Women's National Tournament has grown into one of the top evaluation events for college coaches. The event gives high school players the opportunity to compete on regional all-star teams, allowing coaches to evaluate student-athletes in new roles outside of their traditional high school and club team settings.
Hosting the USA Lacrosse Women's National Tournament continues Brockport's strong tradition of bringing high-level athletic events to campus and Western New York. The event is expected to bring a significant number of visitors to the Brockport area, including athletes, families, coaches, officials, event staff, and spectators. Those visitors will have an impact throughout the local community, including hotels, restaurants, retail stores, gas stations, and other small businesses.
The tournament also coincides with the NCAA Division II and III Women's Lacrosse Championships, which are being held nearby at RIT from May 21-24, making Western New York a national destination for women's lacrosse throughout Memorial Day weekend.
SUNY Brockport's athletic facilities will provide the stage for one of the longest-running and most respected events in women's lacrosse. The opportunity to host the tournament further highlights Brockport's ability to support major regional and national events while showcasing the University's commitment to athletics, student-athlete development, and community engagement.
This year's USA Lacrosse Women's National Tournament sponsors include Capelli Sport, Gait Lacrosse, Go Live Sports, Halpern Travel, Lacrosse Specialties, NCSA, Rochester Sports Commission, SportsEngine, and Sports Recruits.
