UVA women's lacrosse is set to host LIU in the first round of the NCAA Tournament on Friday at Klockner Stadium, Virginia's first home NCAA Tournament game since 2019.
In her first season leading the Virginia women's lacrosse team, Sonia LaMonica kept alive the program's streak of now 28-consecutive NCAA Tournament appearances and for the first time since 2019, has the Cavaliers hosting first and second round NCAA games in Charlottesville. Virginia earned the No. 5 seed in the 2024 NCAA Women's Lacrosse Tournament and is set to host Long Island University in the first round on Friday at 3pm at Klockner Stadium.
"Our schedule is definitely hard for a reason, just to prepare us for times like this," said graduate midfielder Kiki Shaw. "And I think we are definitely prepared." Shaw echoed her coach's sentiment that the loss to Syracuse gave Virginia plenty to work on in the two full weeks between that game and Friday's contest against LIU.
"LIU is certainly going to be a tough game for us. They're on a 10-game winning streak, just coming off their conference championship, first time for them," said LaMonica. "They're riding high, so we need to be ready to step out with tons of energy, a lot of fire, and to be able to execute the little things, the basics well, and I think we'll earn an opportunity for Sunday if we can do that.
