Congratulations to the players, coaches, administrators, families, students and fans. What a season it's been.

- National Champions of Division III (First in program history)

- VI.2 regular season and tournament conference champions (Fourth regular season championship, fifth tournament championship, third double championship in program history)

- 45 wins (Most in program history)

- 34 game win streak to end the season

- .565 RPI (Highest in program history)

- 153.5 TPI (Highest in program history, 3rd in DIII)

- First tournament win(s) in program history

- Eight straight home sellouts to end the season

What a year. On to V.1. We look forward to the challenge.


Sep 03 2037: The Great Advance - by quinnkkelly on March 8th, 2024

After a rather successful 2037 season, we at LUMO are not oblivious, and recognize that the current level of talent on the roster combined with the incoming recruiting class will not likely be able to maintain the level of competitiveness from this year.
With that said, we are looking forward to this opportunity to start fresh, and rebuild our program, constructing a roster capable of sustainably competing at a high level.
Head coach Matthew Browning has our full support and commitment to recruit and develop the players we need to achieve our goals, and we believe he has what it takes to be the man to lead this program to the promised land.
Geaux Tigers.
