D3 lacrosse AND D1 football

[Anonymous]

. Does a college exist with this combination? If you know please share.

You can't be a scholarship athlete and play DI and D3 sports. And to be honest, your DI coach will almost assuredly not let you play a D3 sport.

To be fair, some coaches do let players play another DI sport - Anthony Faison plays on the ND Lax team and is a WR for the ND football team.

Some guys will play 4 years of football and then play a graduate year of lax. Can't remember his name but some guy just did it between Stanford and UVA. The WR for the pats that just retired Hogan did something like that.

A couple of other guys will do the Pat Spencer and Jared Bernhardt. Play lax and then play other sport bball or football, respectfully.

Don't think there is one. Hopkins is the reverse.

Is Anthony Jordan Faison's brother? Jordan is off to a great start, 6 goals thru 3 games. Coming off an MVP performance in the bowl game, it appears ND has a good process in place to accomadate multis-port athletes. Sam Assaf is a walk on football and lax player at ND.

Maryland doesn't seem to have the same synergy with football, with Dante Trader once again not playing lacrosse this spring and Bernhardt wasn't offered a chance to play football at Maryland.

OP here - kid plays lacrosse but wants what Dad & I had at Big 10

But he’s not D1 lax player- so that’s where I was going with question (though additional responses great for archival searches)

Doh. I meant Jordan Faison, not sure where I got Anthony.

You almost never see someone good enough to play D1 football but only D3 lax, mostly due to the difference in the quality of athlete in the two sports at the college level (the vast majority of the best athletes of that body size are playing football and basketball (in some instances soccer) and not lax). Is your kid a long-snapper or kicker or other specialist?

Are you saying he wants to play D3 lacrosse, but wants a Big 10 type experience?

There are a few schools that are D3, and have one D1 team, in some area that the school specializes in. Hopkins for lax, MIT for crew, some of the Northern schools for skiing or hockey, or coastal schools for sailing. I have never heard of it for football though.

Could he go to a D1 school with a strong club lax team? Maybe one that didn't have NCAA lax so the strongest players play club?

Or play for a D3 school near a big football town?

I thought Bernhardt wasn't eligible to play football for Maryland and had to transfer to play.

He only wanted to play qb.

I think schools like Auburn and other big southern football schools have D-3 or high end club lax teams.
