We asked University of Bristol Men’s Lacrosse to look back at their BUCS season and give us their top highlights from the team. Read more for UBMLC #BUCSlookback.
UBMLC has had a fantastic season for Performance. The Men’s 1st team had a fourth consecutive unbeaten league win, securing themselves a spot in the national quarterfinals. They played at home against Loughborough, in aid of CoppoFeel. Four of our 1st team players attended England University trials (scroll down for photos) and three were selected for the squad!
Our 2nd team had a hard-fought season with some close games, eventually securing fourth place overall in the league, joint in points with the team in 3rd place.
Our 3rd team saw some of their first wins in seasons, which was amazing – even more so as they were a team of players who were all new to the sport and hadn’t played in matches before but were all keen to push themselves and become better players!
A highlight, as it is every year, was the first -team BUCS home game against Exeter, which was played in memory of Ottie Uden (a member of our sister club, UBLC) who sadly passed away.
