No. 11 Johns Hopkins (8-4) welcomes rival Loyola (10-3) to Homewood Field Saturday for a key late-season matchup.

In correlation with Homecoming, Hopkins will be celebrating its 11 seniors as they play their final home game. Watch the game live on ESPN or listen to the JHU broadcast here.

-- Women's Lacrosse Travels to Ohio State for ALC Finale --
The Blue Jays (9-6, 1-3 ALC) head to Columbus, OH Sunday for a bout with Ohio State (7-8, 1-3 ALC) in a tune-up for the ALC Tournament. Ironically enough, the two teams will play each other again in the first round of the conference tournament no matter the outcome. The winner of Sunday's matchup will be the fourth seed, while the loser will be the fifth. A win would do well to bolster the Jays' NCAA Tournament hopes, however. Click here for all news and notes.
-- Baseball Looks to Secure Regular Season Conference Title --
Coming off back-to-back losses for the first time this season, the No. 3 Hopkins baseball team (30-5, 12-3 CC) can secure the rights to host the conference tournament by sweeping three games this weekend against Washington College and Muhlenberg (DH). The Blue Jays currently hold a narrow one-game lead over red-hot Gettysburg. Click here for the mid-week report.
Matthew Futterman of the Wall Street Journal notes the Blue Jays have "figured out the algorithm for winning"
-- Conference Unbeatens Meet in Women's Tennis Action --
No. 6 Hopkins travels to Swarthmore Saturday in a critical matchup to determine the regular season conference champions. Both teams are unbeaten at 9-0, as the Blue Jays look to capture their seventh consecutive undefeated conference season.
-- Men's Tennis Eyes Another Undefeated CC Season --
With the regular season crown already locked up, the No. 8 Blue Jays hope to capture their seventh straight undefeated conference season with a win versus Washington College Saturday. Hopkins also plays NC Wesleyan later in the day.
-- Men's and Women's Track Compete at Penn Relays, Shippensburg Invite --
