Nike/US Lacrosse Preseason Poll

A trio of Centennial Conference men's lacrosse teams are ranked in the Nike/US Lacrosse Division III Men’s Preseason Top 20 as Ursinus (No. 5), Gettysburg (No. 9) and Franklin & Marshall (No. 14) each received preseason recognition in rankings compiled by US Lacrosse Magazine staff and contributors in consultation with college coaches.

The 2020 season was cut short due to the COVID-19 pandemic and prior to conference play beginning. In non-conference action last spring, Ursinus boasted a perfect 7-0 record while Gettysburg (6-1) and F&M (3-1) each had one loss. In total, CC teams were 33-20 prior to the season being cancelled. 

Ursinus remains the defending conference champion after defeating Gettysburg 10-8 in the 2019 CC title game.
