HAMDEN, Conn. — The Quinnipiac women's lacrosse team heads down the homestretch with three games left in the regular season and two are in Hamden, starting Saturday when the Bobcats take on Iona at 3 p.m., at the Quinnipiac Lacrosse Stadium.
The Bobcats currently stand one games out of the last playoff spot in the league with three to play as they chase a quarterfinal place in the MAAC playoffs.
