For the first time in nearly 80 years, a school will host back-to-back games in The Rivalry.

To coincide with the celebration of Lafayette’s bicentennial anniversary during the 2025-26 academic year, the location of the 2024 and 2025 Rivalry games have
been swapped, meaning Lehigh will host both the 2023 and 2024 games at Goodman Stadium. Lafayette’s Fisher Stadium in Easton will host the 2025 and 2026 games.

In 2027, the teams will return to Lehigh and resume alternating locations.
