VESTAL, N.Y. - The America East has established its women's lacrosse schedule for the upcoming 2021 season, as the Bearcats will play a nine-game regular season leading up to the conference playoffs in May.

Binghamton has reported back to campus and has begun to phase in their return-to-play protocol. The process will initially begin with full team technical training with no contact, building to fitness work and small sided play, and then to eventual large scale training with full contact to prepare for the season and home opener on March 6 vs. UMass Lowell.

The Bearcats open the season with three of four contests at home, with a road matchup against Albany sandwiched in. The team will host UMass Lowell (Mar. 6), Vermont (Mar. 20), UMBC (Mar. 27), Hartford (Apr. 10), and Albany (Apr. 1).

BU will travel to the aforementioned Great Danes on March 13, followed by visits to New Hampshire (Apr. 3), Stony Brook (Apr. 17) and UMBC (Apr. 24).

The team will take on Albany and UMBC twice, splitting home and road matchups.
