How to Watch Lacrosse on TV

Lacrosse has more TV coverage than ever across college and professional leagues. ESPN+ carries the bulk of NCAA Division I games, with ESPNU, the ACC Network, and the Big Ten Network picking up conference matchups and ACCNX and B1G+ streaming many more. During the college season (late January through Memorial Day weekend), you can find 20 or more NCAA games on TV and streaming every week.

The biggest college games of the year air on ESPN networks, and the 2026 men's and women's national championships both aired on ESPN. If you are following a specific team, ESPN+ is the best single subscription for most regular-season games. ESPN+ is now sold as ESPN Select in the ESPN app; ESPN Unlimited adds the ESPN TV channels.

The 2026 titles went to Princeton (16-9 over Notre Dame) and Northwestern (14-11 over North Carolina). The 2027 college season is expected to start late January to early February 2027, building to men's championship weekend May 29-31, 2027 at Lincoln Financial Field in Philadelphia.

The National Lacrosse League is the top indoor/box lacrosse league in North America.
