MEDFORD, MA (May 4, 2026) -- The No. 4 Tufts University women's lacrosse team was selected as a NCAA Division III Women's Lacrosse Tournament host for the First and Second Rounds this upcoming weekend, as the Jumbos will take on the winner of Endicott College and Haverford College on Bello Field May 9-10.
Endicott, the winner of the Conference of New England with a 15-4 overall record after topping Roger Williams 17-11 in the CNE title game, will take on Haverford from the Centennial Conference Saturday at 1 p.m. on Bello Field. Haverford earned an "at-large" bid after falling to Franklin & Marshall College in the CC title game on Sunday. The Fords (13-6) are making their third straight NCAA Tournament berth. The winner of Saturday's First Round contest will take on Tufts Sunday afternoon at 1 p.m. in the NCAA Second Round.
Tufts is making its 11th all-time appearance in the NCAA Tournament, and eighth straight dating back to the 2018 season. Tufts has played Haverford once prior, defeating the Fords 11-10 back in 2011, while holding a perfect 16-0 record over Endicott all-time.
The 2026 NCAA Division III Women's Lacrosse National Championship is scheduled for Sunday, May 24 at Judson Stadium in Rochester, N.Y.
