6/19/2008

The UMBC men’s lacrosse program was selected to receive the 2008 Henry Ciccarone Award, given by the Touchdown Club of Annapolis, Md. to the collegiate men’s lacrosse team of the year. The award was presented to Head Coach Don Zimmerman on June 18, 2008 at the club’s annual lacrosse cook-out at the Class of 1953 Pavilion at the Navy-Marine Corps Memorial Stadium.

 

This past season, the Retrievers (12-4) set a new school record with 11 straight wins before a tough 10-9 loss at second-seeded Virginia in the first round of the championships. UMBC climbed to a school record ranking of No. 5 by the USILA in mid-April and was ranked No. 6 in the final poll.
