Cardinal Athletes Having Exceptional Spring Season

The Cardinals are having an incredible spring season. The baseball team locked up a NESCAC tournament spot with a double-header sweep at Middlebury April 20. At 7-2 in league play (and in the tournament for the first time since 2010), the team has a showdown with 8-1 Amherst this weekend. The winner of that series will be the top seed in the West and host the tournament May 10-12. Softball is on the cusp of clinching a playoff spot for the first time since 2010, when they won the NESCAC title.

An 8-7 come-from-behind home victory over Tufts, April 20, clinched a first-round NESCAC tournament home game for men’s lacrosse. The opponent for April 27 is still TBA as Wesleyan could finish as high as second in the seedings or as low as fourth.
