Weekend Round-Up: March 24
Baseball (11–12,3–3): It was a rough week on the diamond for Buddy Bolding’s squad losing on the road at William & Mary and then winning just one game in a three game set against VMI.

Softball (22–10,8–4): Softball got their first taste of adversity in the conference this week getting swept by preseason favorite Coastal Carolina at home. Kathy Riley’s squad responded nicely though, sweeping Gardner-Webb to move to 8–4 in conference play. It’ll be a slow week on the softball field as their only game is in-state rival Radford coming to Wednesday for a Big South clash.
Next Week: 3/27 vs Radford
Lacrosse (6–3,2–1): It was an up and down week on the Lacrosse field. Longwood took down in-state rival ODU on the road 17–11. The Lancers then dropped their first Big South game of the year at Davidson 17–7 to move to 2–1 in conference play. Things get tough this week as LU heads to play preseason Big South favorite High Point.
Next Week: 3/27 at High Point, 3/30 vs William & Mary
