BREVARD, N.C - Head Coach Kristin Rosato has announced the schedule for the Brevard College Women's Lacrosse program for the upcoming 2020 Spring season. 

Brevard's 2020 calendar features six home regular-season dates as well as one exhibition contest at Ives-Lemel Family Field. The Tornados will compete in 15 total regular-season competitions, 11 of which being USA South Conference competitions. 

"We have a young, talented group of athletes that have set high expectations for the upcoming season," commented Rosato on Brevard's upcoming 2020 season. "There are no easy games on our schedule, so we will have to be diligent in our preparation. This team has all of the qualities to be successful and I am looking forward to debuting that on February 1."

Brevard's season begins on the aforementioned date of February 1 when the Tornados open up with an exhibition against Lees-McRae College for a Saturday competition beginning at 1 p.m. at Ives-Lemel Family Field.
