Weekend Round Up: April 7
Baseball (14–19, 4–8): The Lancers are in a very tough patch of their schedule but getting swept at Gardner-Webb was certainly not supposed to be in the plans. Longwood has lost 9 out of their last 11 and it won’t get any easier this week with Virginia Tech and Liberty on the slate.
Last Week: L 6–4 vs Richmond, L 6–1, L 9–8, L 4–3 at Gardner-Webb
This Week: 4/9 at Virginia Tech, 4/11–13 vs Liberty

Softball (25–7, 12–2): Softball is on quite the roll winning their last seven games and 18 out of their last 20. This week will be big for the Lancers as they seek revenge against JMU, a team that bounced them from the NCAA Regionals a year ago. Longwood also has a series against an always tough Campbell team. The Lancers only trail the 8–1 Coastal Carolina Chanticleers in the Big South Standings.
Last Week: W 8–4, W 6–4 vs Virginia, W 8–0, W 5–1, W 4–3 at Gardner-Webb
This Week: 4/9 at JMU (DH), 4/10 vs Hampton (DH), 4/12–13 vs Campbell
Lacrosse (5–7, 2–0): The tough out-of-conference schedule is paying off as Longwood went 2–0 to start Big South play with 13–9 wins over at Coastal Carolina and Winthrop. Kacey Norwood was named the Big South Player of the Week after tallying 8 goals and two assists on the week. Longwood and High Point are the only 2–0 squads in the Big South.
Last Week: W 13–9 at Coastal Carolina, W 13–9 at Winthrop
