The Johns Hopkins Blue Jays lacrosse team, founded in 1883, is the school's most prominent sports team, which has won 44 national titles - nine NCAA Division I (2007, 2005, 1987, 1985, 1984, 1980, 1979, 1978, 1974), 29 USILA, and six ILA titles. Hopkins' primary national lacrosse rivals are Princeton University, Syracuse University, and the University of Virginia; its primary intrastate rivals are Loyola College, Towson University, the United States Naval Academy, and the University of Maryland. Maryland is considered their most prominent rival in college lacrosse, the schools having met 103 times, with two of those meetings being in playoffs.

The women's lacrosse team is also building into a top ten-level team, ranking number 8 in the 2007 Intercollegiate Women's Lacrosse Coaches Association (IWLCA) Poll for Division I. The team's only losses in 2007 were to Princeton University, Georgetown University, the University of Maryland, the University of Pennsylvania, Vanderbilt University, Duke University, and Northwestern University (regular season and conference playoff).

The Lacrosse Museum and National Hall of Fame, governed by US Lacrosse, is located on the Homewood campus and is adjacent to the home field for both the men's and women's lacrosse teams, Homewood Field. In the past, Johns Hopkins lacrosse teams have represented the United States in international competition. At the 1928 Summer Olympics in Amsterdam and 1932 Summer Olympics in Los Angeles lacrosse demonstration events, Hopkins played for the US and team members received Olympic Medals. Hopkins is the only US college team to have members awarded Olympic Gold Medals. They have also gone to Melbourne, Australia to win the 1974 World Lacrosse Championship.
