Penn State Abington announces addition of men’s and women’s lacrosse programs
Penn State Abington announced January 3, 2008, it would sponsor men’s lacrosse and women’s lacrosse beginning in the 2008-09 academic year. This brings the total number of varsity programs to eleven.
“We are thrilled to be able to offer two more sports, especially ones as popular in Suburban Philadelphia as men’s and women’s lacrosse”, said Karen Weaver, Director of Athletics.
“Lacrosse has strong roots in Pennsylvania—there are a number of youth and developmental programs within a 30 mile radius of campus as well as current students on our campus who tell us this will be a great fit,” said Weaver.“We believe it is a great fit because of the strong academic profile that lacrosse players traditionally bring, and it fulfills a well established demand in our own service area.”
