The Division 1 women’s college lacrosse season is starting, and Boston College plans to begin with a busy schedule. The national runner-ups have a quick start to their 2020 season with two games in the next five days, including Saturday’s season-opening tilt against UMass that is the pick of the weekend in New England. Here are five games to watch in the region as the season commences.
