The UNC men’s lacrosse team revealed its schedule for the upcoming 2020 regular season this past weekend, with the Tar Heels slated to play seven of their 15 games against teams who qualified for last year’s NCAA Tournament.

To start the season, UNC will play three straight games in Chapel Hill at Dorrance Field against Colgate (Feb. 1), Mercer (Feb. 8) and Lafayette (Feb. 15).

Conference play begins in Durham for UNC, when it travels to take on Duke in a rivalry showdown on March 26.

Next on the docket is a home date against Virginia on April 2, with a trip to Syracuse to follow on April 11.

The regular season concludes in Chapel Hill against Notre Dame on April 18.
