The Virginia men’s lacrosse program officially announced its incoming class of 2,022 signees on Wednesday, a group that Inside Lacrosse ranked the No. 1 recruiting class in the country. The nine-athlete class includes four five-star prospects, four four-stars and one three-star, and also includes three players from the Commonwealth of Virginia and one Charlottesville native.
“The efforts of Kip Turner and Sean Kirwan have been exemplary in our quest to attract and acquire elite student-athletes to the University of Virginia,” said UVA Men’s Lacrosse Head Coach Lars Tiffany. “This collection of skilled and intense lacrosse players represents a group of men who have the drive and essential leadership qualities to support – and someday soon lead – our lacrosse program.”
