Hobart College Lacrosse Head Coach T.W. Johnson recently introduced the 14 student-athletes who will comprise his team's Class of 2013. The newest members of the Statesmen lacrosse program will face their first intercollegiate competition on Oct. 10, when Hobart scrimmages Harvard (noon) and Georgetown (2:30 p.m.) at Navy.
