Women’s Lacrosse Picked Fourth in 2026 MAAC Preseason Poll; Scarduzio Named to Preseason Team

EDISON, NJ - The Iona women's lacrosse team was selected fourth in the 2026 MAAC Women's Lacrosse Preseason Coaches' Poll, as announced by the conference. Graduate student Kacie Scarduzio also earned a spot on the MAAC Preseason Team, recognizing her as one of the league's top returning players heading into the season.

The Gaels are coming off a historic 2025 campaign that saw the program make its first-ever appearance in the MAAC Championship game. Iona's postseason run marked a significant milestone for the program, as the Gaels advanced to the title game before falling in the championship matchup.

Scarduzio's preseason honor highlights her continued impact and leadership for the Gaels. Entering her graduate season, she has been a key contributor throughout her career and is expected to play a central role once again in Iona's pursuit of another deep postseason run.

The fourth-place preseason ranking reflects the confidence of the league's head coaches in Iona's returning talent and competitive trajectory within the conference.

The Gaels will open the 2026 season on Saturday, February 14, hosting Central Connecticut in a home matchup to kick off the new campaign.
