COLUMBUS, Ohio - The Ohio State men's lacrosse team is in the middle of its fall schedule and will hold its annual alumni game Friday night under the lights at the Harmon Family Football Park. Beginning at 6:30 p.m. the current Buckeyes will take on the alumni squad, followed by an alumni game and the Scarlet vs. Gray game for the current players on adjacent fields about 7:15 p.m. The games are open to the public.
The team will wrap up the fall schedule with three games at Delaware Sunday, Oct. 24. The Buckeyes will take on Delaware, Navy and Sienna in Newark, Del.
Friday marks the second alumni gathering for the Buckeyes this fall. Sept. 17 the team held the Lindner Family Memorial Golf Outing on the Scarlet Course at the Ohio State Golf Club. The outing, which was run in conjunction with the Ohio State Men's Varsity O organization, raised more than $10,000 for the Aidan W., Daniel P., and Angela M. Lindner Memorial Athletic Scholarship Fund.
