Announcement

With the completion of games in Round Rock, Texas this past weekend, we have come to the end of the inaugural season of the WCLO! The week was filled with many action-packed games and a renewed sense of energy for the game of non-varsity women’s lacrosse. The Loyola Greyhounds made history by becoming the first WCLO National Champions after being seeded 1st all season long. This is the hounds 4th consecutive National Championship. 

Below, you will find all of the game recaps from the tournament as well as our 2023 WCLO All-Tournament Team! The All-Tournament Awards are given to members of each team who exemplify what it means to be a leader on and off the field. These are the players who showed up and performed when it meant the most at the tournament. Each recipient of this award will receive a custom Brine 2023 All-Tournament shaft for their hard work.
