Interestingly, as part of UB's push to D1A/the MAC, women's lacrosse was a sport that was going to be added but it never came to fruition

 

Interesting meeting notes from way back then

So is Buffalo going to field a team? Seems like if other MAC programs can do it, Buffalo should certainly be able to find a way too.

I feel like it would cause an issue because we just cut 4 teams

You cannot just add teams.  In order to add a team of either sex you then need to balance out Title IX requirements.

Yes I know, I meant more from a PR perspective. If we were to add women's lacrosse I would love to see us add Men's Hockey too.

Seeing as we have the facilities and the conference, soccer and S&D would make more a lot more sense.
