Syracuse women’s lacrosse falls just short of upsetting No. 1 North Carolina
The undefeated Tar Heels ruined SU’s perfect home record in front of an all-time Carrier Dome crowd.
www.thenewshouse.comHere’s the latest on Syracuse Orange women’s lacrosse as of now:
- Syracuse has been riding a strong stretch, with reports noting a nine-game winning streak and a top-3 ranking in Inside Lacrosse’s poll in late March 2026. This marks the program’s latest climb into the top three after a series of wins, including a win over Pittsburgh and a prior win against UAlbany as part of that streak.[2]
- The team sits at 9-3 overall and reached No. 3 in the latest rankings, reflecting its recent success and improvement within the ACC landscape. Maryland, North Carolina, Syracuse, Northwestern, and Yale round out the top five in that poll.[2]
- For context on notable recent performances, Syracuse has had non-conference and conference wins driving the momentum, with a 17-4 win over Cornell highlighted in 2024 and continued ACC play in 2025-26 shaping their season trajectory.[3]
Notes:
- If you’d like, I can pull the most current game-by-game results, upcoming schedule, and Covid/APR or NCAA tournament implications for this team from official sources and summarize them in a quick bullet list. I can also track changes in the latest poll through the next update.
Would you like me to fetch the latest official game schedule and current rankings from the Syracuse athletics site and the Inside Lacrosse poll for the exact dates and records?[7][2]
