VERY happy there's soon going to be another great Buff team to watch compete and root for, as lacrosse officially begins its season this Saturday, facing off against the ranked Gators in Gainesville. The Buffs will be looking for a solid start to the season, and will need it as they've lost to Florida by identical 9-16 scores the past 2 regular seasons (2018 in Gainesville and last season in Boulder), and the Gators also defeated the Buffs in the 2nd round of the 2018 NCAA tourney by a 9-13 score.
(Great that Florida is streaming the match on Youtube. Thanks to them.)
GO BUFFS!!!

BOULDER — The University of Colorado lacrosse team will start its 2020 campaign against the Florida Gators this Saturday, February 8, at 10 a.m. MT/12 p.m. ET in Gainesville, Fla.
This will be a top-20 match-up as CU starts the season ranked 18th in the IWLCA Preseason Poll while Florida is ranked 14th.
The Buffaloes finished the 2019 season with an 11-8 mark while advancing to the second round of the NCAA Tournament. UF was 14-7 last season, which included a 1-1 record in the NCAA Tournament as the Gators fell in the second round.
THE SERIES: Florida leads the series against CU, 3-0, with two of those wins coming in Gainesville during the 2018 season. The two teams met early in the regular season before meeting up again in the second round of the NCAA Tournament. Florida made its first visit to Boulder on Feb. 9, 2019, and won 16-9.
HOW TO WATCH: The game will be streamed on YouTube. Links to the live stream and live stats will be available at CUBuffs.com.
UP NEXT: The Buffs will play their season opener on February 21 against Harvard, but will have a quick turnaround as they will hop on a plane and head east to face Michigan on February 23 in Ann Arbor, Mich.
HOME GAME INFORMATION: All of Colorado's home games will be played at Kittredge Field and admission is free, as is parking in Lot 416. Overflow parking is available in the RG lot on the north side of the CU Events Center.
