Lane Stadium makes an interesting Lacrosse Venue.

I'm watching the broadcast of the ACC Women's Lacrosse Conference Tournament Semifinals on CSN. I had forgotten that the tournament was being hosted at Lane Stadium. I started watching and thought it strange to see Syracuse and Notre Dame playing with VT in the middle of the field, but they faded the football lines enough to make it work.

I thought the lacrosse venue at VT is Thompson Field, but Lane Stadium works. They have banners all along the sides with the ACC logos and the sponsors. This is an event that would be great on a Channel.

The steep incline makes it work IMO, as opposed to Michigan's Big House -- Stech 04/30/2016 08:40AM

Tech's WLAX program is far behind all the other ACC programs. -- Old Line Hokie 04/29/2016 10:53PM

Like everything else, it's coaching and recruiting. -- HOO86 04/30/2016 11:40AM

Probably a correct impression. -- Atlee Hokie 04/30/2016 2:50PM

Hoping someday for a Men's team -- VaTechHokiesACC 04/29/2016 8:57PM

I'd like ice hockey fwiw. ** -- Maroon Baboon 05/01/2016 9:41PM

I'd love it too, but I want all other sports to be fully funded before -- HokieDevil 05/01/2016 1:01PM

I'm with you! Living in Maryland for 27 years made me appreciate the sport ** -- Old Line Hokie 04/29/2016 10:47PM

Let's be blunt it's cash want the indoor fac or lacrosse -- Mercury 04/30/2016 11:49AM

VT would have to do what UR did- drop a men's sport -- PadrosWindup 04/30/2016 1:33PM

That is one option -- Mercury 04/30/2016 5:18PM

The money to cover the startup cost to sponsor men's lax may not be the -- VTHokie2000 05/02/2016 1:08PM

Field Hockey and Gymnastics have comparable scholarship #s to men's Lax. -- HOO86 05/02/2016 1:53PM

Even though both sports could work -- VTHokie2000 05/02/2016 2:18PM

All Lacrosse is Spring. All Soccer is Fall. Field Hockey is Fall. -- HOO86 05/02/2016 3:25PM

We don't have the money for that. ** -- Atlee Hokie 04/30/2016 01:25AM

An ACC Network bringing in BTN or SECN type money might... -- Old Line Hokie 04/30/2016 10:29AM

Until they show me something, I consider a well paying ACCN a pipe dream. ** -- Atlee Hokie 04/30/2016 2:53PM

"A work in progress" isn't enough? ;) ** -- Old Line Hokie 04/30/2016 4:01PM

However that revenue is already allocated -- Mercury 04/30/2016 11:51AM

How about let's let Whit Babcock figure this out - -- KnoxHokie 04/30/2016 2:25PM
