Obviously the good players are all in the ACC. Do you realize how good you have to be to be named an AA if you ain’t from the ACC or Big Ten? You have to make it hard for them not to select you.

Obviously all the good coaches are in the Ivy league, coaching up all those non all american players and getting all their teams into the big dance (sans the green one)

28% shooting, pumped up by three games against Marquette and Syracuse twice (43% across those games). Without those games, he shot 23%!

25 goals, but onlly 16 if you drop those three games.

39 assists, but only 24 if you drop those three games.

Yes he got 39 groundballs, but he’s an attackman, and he should be judged primarily on scoring efficiency.

Piatelli or Kirst should have his spot.

It is also weird not to see Long, Khan, Murphy, or Zapitello on the list. Geppert should at least be an HM.

A ridiculous number of ACC all Americans for all the talk about an inferior level of lacrosse compared to the Ivy, which had three ALl Americans on the 1st 2nd and third teams

those guys on the ivies don't care about individual awards. they are about team accomplishment, they'd much rather have that. and that starts a new chapter this weekend.

maybe he shows up on one of the other AAs
if he and UVA have a string tournament.

Guess they didn’t use RPI for AA determination.

So the kid Frank Urso said was the greatest player he ever saw, who just broke Stanwicks all time points record and who was picked 4th in the PLL draft - doesn’t make HM?

Has anyone confirmed that this is actual a record ? It’s a pretty remarkable stat
