  • Matchups

    Game 1: 2:00pm
    Colgate vs Navy

    The first game is a Patriot League match-up with Colgate facing Navy at 2:00 p.m. The Face-Off Classic places Colgate's electrifying attackman Peter Baum on the big stage. The reigning national Player of the Year headlines an explosive offense coming off a run to the NCAA Quarterfinals. Under second year head coach Rick Sowell, a resurgent Navy team is ready to use the event to announce its return to the national spotlight. The Midshipmen look to build momentum in 2013 after impressive wins over Colgate (12-11) and Johns Hopkins (8-2) a year ago showcased the team's potential.

    Game 2: 4:30pm
    Virginia vs Johns Hopkins

    The second game at 4:30 p.m. features a heavyweight battle of perennial contenders for the national championship, Virginia vs. Johns Hopkins. Led by do-it-all midfielder Chris LaPierre, the Cavaliers will look to reload after losing an influential senior class. Johns Hopkins welcomes back a balanced lineup loaded with experience, with senior long-stick Tucker Durkin considered by many to be the nation's best defender. The Blue Jays have appeared in every edition of the Face-Off Classic since its inception in 2007.
