Agreed. Would be nice to see a lacrosse player win the big overall award, but it’s never happened before so I won’t hold my breath

Softball and basketball usually are big wins or any Olympic sport

As a co-captain of our 2022 team, Jamie’s leadership, hard work and dominant performances were keys to our undefeated, national championship season,” continued Levy. “Simply put, she is a champion who represents the University of North Carolina and the sport of lacrosse in a first class manner.”

I'm not sure I recognized the great accomplishment by JO, winning the Honda award. The award recognizes what that JO is a complete, unselfish attacker and led her team to an undefeated season, capped by winning the National Championship and beating BC for the 3rd time this season.

Congrats to the "GREATER ONE"

Well deserved . Undefeated champion, all time points leader in ACC. And as humble as can be. Someone that Girls should emulate .

Not Division 1 but still worth posting here.

Congratulations to Erin Nicholas for being named Division III Athlete of the year. She is a very impressive young woman. All American in field hockey and lacrosse. 4 NCAA championships in field hockey and 2 in lacrosse. A nice example of what it means to be a student-athlete.

Definitely worth posting here and incredibly impressive. A lot of kids choose the D3 route for just this reason, to be able to play multiple sports instead of choosing one.
