ALFRED, NY – The next Alfred Cup event is set for Wednesday, February 25 at 4:00pm as the Alfred University men's lacrosse team meets Alfred State at Pioneer Stadium.
 
To this point, Alfred University has earned points towards the Alfred Cup overall scoreboard following wins in women's soccer, volleyball, and men's basketball. Alfred State has picked up points following victories in men's soccer, men's cross country, and women's cross country.
