How did Cleveland State men’s lacrosse perform in the 2023 season. What key achievements and milestones did the team reach. Which players stood out with individual accolades and awards.
Cleveland State’s Inaugural ASUN Conference Season
The 2023 season marked Cleveland State men’s lacrosse team’s first year competing in the ASUN Conference. This transition brought new challenges and opportunities for the Vikings as they faced off against unfamiliar opponents.
How did Cleveland State fare in their ASUN debut? The team secured their first-ever ASUN win on March 18, 2023, with a thrilling 14-12 victory over Lindenwood at home. This milestone achievement set the tone for their conference campaign and demonstrated the team’s ability to compete at a high level in their new league.
Notable Victories and Competitive Performances
Throughout the season, Cleveland State notched several impressive wins and put up strong performances against tough opponents. Some of the standout results include:
- A 13-6 road victory over St. Bonaventure on March 11
- An 18-12 win against Canisius in their home opener on March 4
- A narrow 14-12 loss to 10th-ranked Jacksonville on March 29, showcasing the team’s ability to compete with top-tier programs
- A season-ending 14-12 triumph over Detroit on April 29
These results highlight the team’s growth and competitiveness throughout the 2023 campaign.
Individual Accolades and ASUN Conference Recognition
Several Cleveland State players earned recognition for their outstanding performances during the 2023 season. The team garnered four ASUN awards, with one player in particular standing out:
Tristan Matthews’ Triple Honor
Tristan Matthews emerged as a key player for the Vikings, earning three ASUN awards. While the specific awards are not mentioned in the provided information, this level of recognition speaks to Matthews’ significant impact on the team’s performance and his status as one of the conference’s top players.
Logan’s Defensive Prowess
Another standout performer for Cleveland State was Logan, who claimed the ASUN Defensive Player of the Week honor twice during the season. This recognition underscores Logan’s consistent excellence in anchoring the Vikings’ defense.
How important are these individual awards for the team’s overall success? While lacrosse is a team sport, having players recognized at the conference level boosts morale, attracts attention from recruits, and validates the program’s development.
Academic Excellence: USILA Scholar All-American Honors
Cleveland State’s men’s lacrosse program demonstrated its commitment to academic success alongside athletic achievement. The team received two USILA Scholar All-American honors, highlighting the student-athletes’ ability to excel both on the field and in the classroom.
What does it take to earn USILA Scholar All-American status? To be eligible, a player must be a senior with a cumulative grade point average of 3.0 or higher and must be an All-American, a member of a North/South team, or an outstanding league or conference player. This recognition speaks volumes about the character and dedication of Cleveland State’s lacrosse student-athletes.
USILA Academic Team Honors
In addition to individual academic accolades, the entire Cleveland State men’s lacrosse team was recognized for its scholarly achievements. The program earned USILA Academic Team Honors, further cementing its reputation as a well-rounded collegiate lacrosse program.
To qualify for this distinction, a team must post a 3.0 or higher team GPA for the academic year. This accomplishment reflects the coaching staff’s emphasis on academic performance and the players’ commitment to excelling in their studies.
Challenging Non-Conference Schedule
Cleveland State’s 2023 schedule featured several high-profile non-conference matchups that tested the team’s mettle against some of the nation’s top programs. These games included:
- A season opener against Ohio State on February 11
- A road game against 2nd-ranked Notre Dame on February 19
- A contest with 20th-ranked Utah on April 22
While the Vikings may not have secured victories in these matchups, competing against such formidable opponents provides valuable experience and exposure for the program. How do these high-profile games benefit Cleveland State’s lacrosse program? They offer opportunities for players to showcase their skills against elite competition, help coaches assess areas for improvement, and raise the program’s profile on a national level.
Youth Engagement and Community Outreach
Cleveland State’s men’s lacrosse program demonstrated its commitment to growing the sport and engaging with the local community through various initiatives. One notable event was the team’s Youth Day, held in conjunction with their home game against Bellarmine on April 16.
Youth days serve multiple purposes for collegiate lacrosse programs:
- Inspiring young players by exposing them to high-level college lacrosse
- Building a connection between the team and the local lacrosse community
- Potentially identifying and nurturing future recruits
- Increasing game attendance and creating a lively atmosphere
By hosting events like Youth Day, Cleveland State is investing in the future of lacrosse in the region and fostering a supportive fan base for the program.
Looking Ahead: Building on the 2023 Season
As Cleveland State men’s lacrosse reflects on the 2023 season, there are several key takeaways and areas for future growth:
Establishing ASUN Conference Presence
With their first ASUN win under their belt, the Vikings have laid a foundation for future success in the conference. The experience gained from competing against ASUN opponents will be invaluable as the team seeks to climb the conference standings in coming seasons.
Developing Individual Talent
The multiple individual awards earned by Cleveland State players in 2023 suggest a strong core of talent within the program. Continuing to develop these standout performers while also nurturing emerging talent will be crucial for the team’s long-term success.
Maintaining Academic Excellence
The program’s commitment to academic achievement, as evidenced by the USILA Scholar All-American honors and Academic Team recognition, sets a high standard for future recruiting classes. Maintaining this balance of athletic and academic success will be essential for the program’s continued growth and reputation.
Strengthening Non-Conference Performance
While Cleveland State faced tough competition in their non-conference schedule, improving their performance against top-ranked opponents will be a goal for future seasons. These high-profile matchups provide valuable experience and exposure for the program.
What steps can Cleveland State take to build on their 2023 season? Some potential areas of focus include:
- Targeted recruiting to address specific positional needs
- Enhanced strength and conditioning programs to compete with physically dominant teams
- Tactical adjustments based on lessons learned from ASUN conference play
- Continued emphasis on academic support and achievement
- Expanded community outreach and youth development initiatives
By addressing these areas, Cleveland State men’s lacrosse can continue to elevate its status within the ASUN Conference and the broader collegiate lacrosse landscape.

“Cleveland” expelled Kevin Pangos – Basketball
“Cleveland” expelled point guard Kevin Pangos (29 years, 188 cm), according to HoopsHype insider Michael Scotto.
The Canadian left the Cavaliers four days before the Euroleague transfer deadline.
Earlier, the Greek edition of Gazzetta.gr reported that CSKA Moscow agreed with Pangos on a contract until the end of the 2023/24 season for $6 million.
The former Zenit point guard has played 24 games for the Cavaliers this season, averaging 1.6 points and 1.3 assists in 7 minutes.
CSKA is shaking, but his boss didn’t hide, but wrote an open letter to Sports.ru. Honestly about the crisis and money
