LOUISVILLE, KY – The Skidmore College men's lacrosse team continued its national rise, climbing to No. 15 in Week 9 of the United States Intercollegiate Lacrosse Association (USILA) Division III Men's Coaches Poll, as revealed by the organization late Monday afternoon.

Improving two spots from the previous week, the Thoroughbreds leaped past a pair of NESCAC programs in Amherst and Middlebury after a road victory over Vassar this past Saturday. Other Liberty League teams in the poll include RIT at No. 6 and St. Lawrence at No. 19.

Skidmore continues league play this Saturday with a road matchup at Clarkson, scheduled for noon.
