HOBOKEN, N.J. (March 27, 2014) – The Stevens Institute of Technology women's lacrosse team – featured in several areas of the latest NCAA statistical rankings release – will hit the road for a pair of conference contests Friday and Saturday afternoon.
 
Stevens will take on E8 foe Utica College at Charles A. Gaetano Stadium Friday at 4 p.m. and then travel to Elmira College to battle the Soaring Eagles Saturday at 3 p.m. The Ducks are coming off a 14-9 conference win at Hartwick College last Saturday to move to 3-5 overall and 1-0 in the Empire 8.
