UAlbany Men's Lacrosse Jumps Back Into the National Rankings After a 2-0 Week

ALBANY, N.Y. -- After posting wins over then-ranked UMass (#9/13) and Canisius last week, the UAlbany men's lacrosse team has regained its national ranking, coming in at 19th in the USILA Coaches' Poll and 20th in the Nike/Inside Lacrosse Media Poll.

The Great Danes posted a 15-9 win over UMass on Tuesday at home, handing the Minutemen their third straight loss. On Saturday, UAlbany traveled to Buffalo to take on Canisus, and posted a 12-11 win over the Golden Griffs. The Great Danes were receiving votes in both polls during the preseason, then vaulted to 16th on both charts after a season-opening victory at Syracuse.

UAlbany will visit Bryant in non-conference action on Saturday.
