Season

edit

Just like the first season, Lafayette got a late start to the year and didn't play their first match until late February.[1] Similarly, after losing their opening match, the Leopards won the second game against Lehigh at Skytop.[2]

While there was enthusiasm from student body to keep the program going, the school decided against financially supporting the program and it was downgraded to unofficial status for the following year.[3]
