- Vassar’s women’s lacrosse team is a perennial contender in the highly competitive Liberty League. In 2019 the high-scoring Brewers competed in the league playoffs. Four of our players earned All-Liberty League honors, and one was named Rookie of the Year. The team starts each season with a trip to warmer playing fields. Last season, the Brewers played a pair of games in Port Charlotte, FL.
