Garden City, N.Y. - On Saturday, April 15, the Adelphi women's lacrosse team is scheduled to host LIU Post in non-conference action at 1:00 p.m. on Motamed Field. Prior to the game, the alumni from both the Pioneers and the Panthers will match up for a cause to play their own game in honor of alumni day.
