May 14, 2021

Today, I’m asking you, and all Crusaders, to go ALL IN.

All year, our student-athletes have dedicated themselves to looking towards the future, growing stronger as individuals and teammates athletically, academically and personally.

With fortitude, we are continuing to prepare our 700 Crusaders to compete at the highest level. Just as they are committed to training and learning, to capitalizing on the opportunities in front of them, we are committed to our vision – delivering a transformative student-athlete experience driven by competitive success. 

Year after year, regardless of the circumstances, one thing remains constant — the strength of Crusaders when we go ALL IN for one another. Every dollar you give today will be dedicated to continuing our tradition of developing champions. And today, thanks to the Hope + Access campaign, all new and increased gifts are being matched 100% for financial aid. 

Together, we are strong. Together, we shape our future. Together, let’s go ALL IN for Crusader student-athletes.

Go Cross Go!

Alumni & Crusader Lacrosse Supporters,

It has been an exciting time on The Hill since January 22nd. I couldn't be more excited that my family has joined the Holy Cross family. There is great potential in the current team and the program's future. We have much work to do to maximize this potential and take advantage of our opportunities. Everyone I have met so far has been extremely welcoming, helpful and excited about the lacrosse program.

The team has been together conducting workouts since January 25th. We are in a phasing plan to get them back into playing shape and keep them as healthy as possible. We scrimmaged full field for the first time on Saturday and will continue full team practices this week. It has been a joy to be back on the field and be together. We appreciate each day we are on the field and work hard to improve as we prepare for the season. Our Patriot League schedule has been released and our focus is on our March 6th league opener at Colgate. As of now, fans are not allowed to attend games in person, but please continue to monitor opponents' sites for their policies regarding attending games.

I have been pleased with the team's attitude, work ethic and overall demeanor on and off the field so far. My overall vision for the team and the program is an "Approach to Excellence." To achieve this vision, the coaches and leaders of the team identified our core values: Selfless, Aggressive, Disciplined, Execution, Relentless. My goal is for our team to embody this vision and live these core values in everything we do, both individually and collectively. I am motivated each day to use these values to develop and prepare the young men of Crusader lacrosse for their lives after graduation.

Please let me know if you have any ideas, suggestions or feedback. We are all working to make this an excellent experience for our student-athletes as well as everyone supporting the program.

Go Cross!

J.L. Reppert

Head Coach

We are in awe of and so very grateful for our supporters who continue to go All In for our student-athletes. Your generosity allows us to prepare our Crusaders for a stronger tomorrow as they strive to succeed and lead in athletics, in the classroom and in their communities.

Please accept our heartfelt thanks for your support! Holy Cross would not be what it is today without the participation and dedication of Crusader Nation.  

Holy Cross student-athletes are dedicated and resilient. When our world — and in turn, our campus life — changed this year, we adapted. Through challenge after challenge, our commitment to our education and our athletics never faltered. And today, we remain focused and hopeful for the future.

This is why we are asking the Holy Cross community to come together right now in support of our student-athletes.

Whether you make a gift to the Fund for Athletics Excellence or to one of our 27 varsity teams, your generosity helps position us for an even stronger return to competition.

In the face of unprecedented challenges, we know that one thing remains constant — the strength of Crusaders when we go all in to support one another. On this Giving Tuesday, your gift is for our future. With your support, our next great moment awaits.
