Four Princeton women's lacrosse players, the most of any school in the nation, have been named IWLCA/USLacrosse Division I first-team All-Americans.
Junior Lindsey Biles, Princeton's leading scorer in 2004 with 55 goals and 71 points, is one of six attack players on the first team. Biles, an Annapolis, Md., native, came within one goal of tying Cristi Samaras's Princeton single-season goal mark of 56 and also finished second on the team with 44 groundballs.
Senior Katie Norbury, a defender, earns first-team honors in 2004 after notching second-team All-America honors as a junior in 2003. A first-team All-Ivy League selection, Norbury, a native of Berwyn, Pa., finished second on the team in 2004 with 27 caused turnovers while playing nearly every minute of every game.
Junior Elizabeth Pillion also moves up from the second team in 2003 to the first team in 2004 after a spectacular season in the midfield. In addition to finishing third on the Tigers with 34 goals and 51 points, the Villanova, Pa., native was Princeton's leader in both groundballs (48) and draw controls (44) and tied for second on the team in caused turnovers (27). Theresa Sherry, a senior and team captain this season along with Norbury, earns first-team All-America honors for the third straight year after a terrific senior season. She finished second on the team with 48 goals, her third-straight 40-goal season, and tied for the team lead with 44 draw controls. The Baltimore, Md., native finished her career third on Princeton's goal-scoring list with 161 and fourth all-time at Princeton with 197 points.
Sophomore Lauren Vance also earned All-America honors for Princeton, placing on the third team. Vance led Princeton with 29 caused turnovers while playing nearly every minute for a Tiger team that finished No. 1 in the nation in scoring defense.
Princeton had four first-team selections, while Virginia had two and 10 schools had one first-team pick. Princeton's five total All-America selections were the most of any school in the nation.
