Key Games

4/9 vs Lafayette: Holy Cross recorded their second win of the Reppert era, and only in conference last season, over Lafayette. This is a game that the Crusaders will want to win again this season to help themselves rise up from near the bottom of the Patriot League.

4/29 vs Colgate: In a snowy overtime battle in early March, the Crusaders fell to the Raiders 11-10 in a game in which A.J. Fox made 12 saves and Dean DiNanno and T.J. Lynch combined for eight points. A win over Colgate would certainly help Holy Cross if they want any chance of moving up this spring.
