The USILA D2 Lacrosse All-Americans were officially announced ahead of this weekend’s championship game. Mercyhurst will be looking for Player of the Year Winner Shawn Doran to lead them back to the championship podium. Doran was absolutely dominant this year at the faceoff-X, winning nearly 73% of his draws to go along with 13 goals and 9 assists.
Willie Grieco of Wingate took home Attackman of the Year. The two-time SAC Offensive Player of the Year is now the two-time USILA South Region Player of the Year and two-time National Attackman of the Year for the Bulldogs, putting an exclamation point on a phenomenal year. Grieco piled up 39 goals and 49 assists in 2023, ranking second in the nation in assists per game and points per game.
Anthony Caputo from Pace took home Midfielder of the Year after a dominant spring season in between the boxes. Caputo played in all 15 games for the Setters, totaling 32 goals and a team-high 26 assists to lead Pace with 58 points total. He was a force all year in the grueling NE-10 Conference.
Kyle Basch from UIndy added some more accolades to a dominant defensive season by picking up Defenseman of the Year. Basch, the graduate student, ranked second on the team in groundballs (73) and caused turnovers (29) while leading the Greyhounds to their fourth consecutive trip to the NCAA Tournament. Basch has already taken home conference and regional Defensive Player of the Year Awards.
Rounding out the positional awards is Shahé Katchadurian from Rollins, who took home the Goalie of the Year Award. A force for the Tars this season, Katchadurian helped lead the Tars to the Sunshine State Conference Championship and the No.1 Seed in the Southern bracket in their first NCAA Tournament appearance. Katchadurian posted a 58% save percentage and 9.28 goals against average, helping Rollins to its first conference championship.
