The America East Men’s Lacrosse Championship will go through Albany. The UAlbany Great Danes captured their first #AEMLAX regular-season title since 2018 with a win over Binghamton on Saturday.
Vermont, UMBC and Merrimack earned the other three bids as the seeds and matchups for the 2024 America East Men's Lacrosse Championship, which takes place May 2 & 4, were finalized up on Saturday.
The final seeds for the 2024 #AEMLAX Championship are:
- UAlbany (6-1)
- Vermont (5-2)
- UMBC (4-3)
- Merrimack (4-3)
In a wild final day of the regular-season, three teams secured bids while two others who came into the day tied for second place, were eliminated. Vermont beat UMBC,15-13, to secure its bid while Merrimack beat Bryant, 16-14, to eliminate the Bulldogs. That result put the Retrievers in the tournament, but the Warriors did not clinch until the Great Danes knocked out the Bearcats with an 18-10 win.
The semifinal winners will go head-to-head for the 2024 conference championship on Saturday at 3 p.m. The game will be national televised on ESPNU.
