BUCKHANNON, W.Va. – West Virginia Wesleyan College has made a leadership change in its women's lacrosse program, announcing a national search for a new head coach.

Given the timing within the semester, the team will suspend competition until the 2026-2027 academic year with a focus on recruitment growth and support for current players during that time. 

Vice President for Intercollegiate Athletes Kyle Hoffman MBA '06 said,  "After numerous meetings with our student-athletes, it became clear that we did not have the level of participation needed to complete the 2026 season.  While we know this was a difficult decision to make, we continue to prioritize the health and safety of our student-athletes first.  We look forward to competing again in 2027."
