The Pace University Women’s Lacrosse moved to 2nd place in the International Women’s Lacrosse Coaches Association (IWLCA) yesterday. 

With the publication of the IWLCA’s release, the 2023 Pace WLAX team now owns the highest-ever ranking in the history of Women’s Lacrosse. 

The team’s 2nd seed national ranking is surpassed only by the 1999 Pace Men’s Lacrosse team, which had a record of 14-1 and ranked #1 in the country. 

Pace’s Saturday win over #5 Le Moyne College marked the team’s 3rd win over a Top 5 ranked opponent and first ever over the fellow NE-10 school. The final score was 16-5.
