After nearly nine months of down time, the college lacrosse season is just around the corner.
To preview what's in store, New England Lacrosse Journal presents its preseason coaches poll, featuring input from over 25 coaches throughout the region.
Submissions were made anonymously about New England's top teams, then point totals were sorted from highest to lowest to determine the order. As results came in, four first-place votes went to Amherst, while a whopping 22 were submitted for Wesleyan, defending national champions.
The below poll features 15 of New England's top teams, with a heavy emphasis on the NESCAC. Let's get right into it.
