TheHobart Statesmen men's lacrosse team represents theHobart College inNational Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA)Division Icollege lacrosse. The program was created in 1898 and plays its home games at Boswell Field. The Statesmen competed in theNortheast Conference from 2014 to 2022, with previous conference membership in thePatriot League and theECAC Lacrosse League as a Division I program.[2] Starting with the 2023 season, Hobart will play in the newly established men's lacrosse league of theAtlantic 10 Conference (A-10).[3] Through 2022, the team has an all–time record of 801-521-20.[4]
Hobart has captured 16 national championships, including twoNCAA Division II championships and 13NCAA Division III championships.[5] The athletics program elevated its team toNCAA Division I in 1995 to preserve its historiclacrosse rivalries with Cornell andSyracuse. Despite an effort to reclassify the Statesmen back to Division III in 2008 by the college’s Board of Trustees, a strong response from Hobart’s alumni base prevented the change and kept the program in Division I.[6]
In 2014, Hobart joined theNortheast Conference (NEC) as an associate member in men’s lacrosse, increasing the conference’s membership to 7 teams.[7] During their stint in the conference, the Statesmen won league tournament and regular season championships in 2016 and 2017 respectively, making their fifth NCAA tournament appearance at the Division I level in2016.[8] Hobart left NEC men's lacrosse after the 2022 season to join the newly established A-10 men's lacrosse league.
