Aug. 25, 2015 LOS ANGELES - The first day of class for the 2015-16 academic year is technically Monday, but the weekend preceding it will be a busy one on the LMU campus. And LMU Athletics will be at the center of it with men's soccer, women's soccer and women's volleyball all in action.
Move-in Weekend as it is called will start with a triple-header of action on Friday with women's soccer taking on Bucknell at 4 pm. Women's volleyball will then start their season against Virginia in Gersten Pavilion at 5 pm. Men's soccer will then end the day with their season opener at 7 pm against San Jose State.
