The Ohio Wesleyan-Denison LAX Game' is a men's lacrosse sports rivalry between Ohio Wesleyan University and Denison University going back several decades.[1] Ohio Wesleyan was banned by the NCAA from hosting its lacrosse events due to administrative oversight and heavy use of profanity against the visiting Denison University teams in 1995. [2]

Both schools issue alerts to fans specifically for this game about unsportsmanlike behavior and profanity. [3]
