Games to Circle

2/13 @ Denver: The battle between Colorado’s only DI lacrosse teams. This matchup being one of the first games for both teams has grown into somewhat of a tradition over the past decade with six of the past ten meetings between these two being in February. Denver leads the all-time series 21-2, winning the last 12 meetings. Air Force’s last win over Denver came in 2009 when they won 10-7 on the road. Denver won last season’s meeting, 13-7.

2/27 @ Duke: The Blue Devils always loose to a SoCon team in February, right? Could that team be Air Force for the second season in a row? Led by an eight-point performance from freshman Brandon Dodd and 17-save performance from Braden Host, the Falcons beat Duke 14-13 last season. They have beaten the Blue Devils three times (2016, 2017, 2020) in the past five seasons.

4/24 vs High Point: During the last full season in 2019, the High Point Panthers were the only SoCon team to hand Air Force a regular season loss. The Panthers led 6-4 at half and stretched that lead out to 13-6 early in the fourth. Air Force was able to get three straight down the stretch but couldn’t complete the comeback as they lost 13-9.
