About Our Organization: 

The Marist Club Men’s Lacrosse Team provides an opportunity for undergraduate students to participate in competitive intercollegiate lacrosse as a member of the NCLL Division II New York Metro Conference. The club welcomes players of all experience levels; however, as a competitive team with a limited roster, the priority is fielding the strongest lineup to give the team the best chance to win. The Marist Club Men’s Lacrosse team helps student-athletes develop leadership and athletic skills while fostering sportsmanship, camaraderie, and teamwork. Beyond player development, Marist Club Men’s Lacrosse seeks to build and maintain a strong community of alumni, students, faculty, staff, and administrators dedicated to supporting the team’s continued growth and success. 

After capturing the NY Metro Conference Championship, the Marist Club Men’s Lacrosse Team earned an invitation to the NCLL National Tournament, held annually in Annapolis, Maryland, and hosted by the Navy Club Lacrosse Team. The tournament takes place each year in May, featuring the top eight teams from across the country competing for the National Championship Trophy. Marist has proudly qualified for Nationals in 2022, 2024, and 2025, and the team continues to set its sights on bringing home the title in the upcoming season.
