Adelphi Pulls Historic All-America Haul

Panthers Win Six Major Awards, Highlight 31 NE10 MLAX All-Americans

NORTH ATTLEBORO, Mass. - The Northeast 10 pulled in the largest cadre of Division II All-American honors in the country Thursday, earning 31 nods from the United States Intercollegiate Lacrosse Association (USILA), headlined by a record six Adelphi student-athletes winning major awards.

NE10 Player of the Year, Adelphi's Kyle Lewis, was named the Lt. Raymond J. Enners Outstanding Player of the Year.  It marks the third straight year a Panther has won the honor, following goalkeeper Dylan Renner in 2024 and 2025.  Lewis was also named the Lt. j.g. Donald MacLaughlin Jr. Outstanding Midfielder, repeating an honor he won in 2025.  Lewis heads into Sunday's national championship with 115 career goals, including the game-winner in last year's NCAA title game.

AU has been ranked No. 1 in the country all season, in large part because of its glut of riches across the lineup.  Lewis is joined by the Lt. Col. JI Turnbull Outstanding Attackman in junior Braden Donnellan, the William C. Schmeisser Defensive Player of the Year in junior Ries Bower, the Ensign C. Markland Kelly Jr. Outstanding Goalie in junior Christian Tomei and the Long Pole Midfielder of the Year in junior Carter Linkletter.  Donnellan, Bower and Linkletter all win those trophies for the second consecutive season.  The six major honors are the most won by a single DII program in a given year since at least 2015.  The wins are the most by a single conference since 2018, when the NE10 won seven.

In total, the NE10 earned 31 All-America honors: seven on the first team, seven on the second team, two on the third team, and the remaining 15 as honorable mentions.
