One of the most successful programs at any level of collegiate
athletics, Limestone College lacrosse began its legacy in Gaffney, South
Carolina, in 1990 and has since built a tradition and reputation unique
to all others. The four-time NCAA Division II National Champions paved
the way for the sport of lacrosse in the state of South Carolina, as
well as much of the southern United States. The first southern program
in the sport's history, Limestone quickly fought off the stigma that it
would not be able to compete, becoming a top contender even in the
program's infancy. Just 10 years after its inaugural season, the Saints
broke through with the most coveted prize of all--a national
championship. Since then, Limestone has added three more crowns and has
appeared in the championship round 10 times. While the popularity of
lacrosse continues to grow in South Carolina and the surrounding area,
so too does Limestone's lore. The Saints continue to push forward and
will forever remain innovators of the sport's heritage.
