Colleges are back in session throughout the region, and new college lacrosse seasons cannot be far behind.
It’s not too early to spotlight some of the top players from the region we’ll have an eye on next spring. These can be players coming off award-winning seasons, transfers looking to make a name for themselves in their new homes, or freshmen set to make impacts.
By conference, we will identify five players to watch this coming season. In this post, we look at men from the Northeast Conference, whose eight teams include Bryant and Sacred Heart, as well as Merrimack, which is preparing for its second season in Division 1. It no longer includes Robert Morris, winner of the last two league titles.
