Princeton Has Five All-Region Players

If you want to be a women's lacrosse All-America, you have to do two things.

First, you have to be great. Second, you have to be named All-Region first.

Not surprisingly the Princeton women's lacrosse team has five players who have crossed both of those hurdles, as the All-Region teams have been announced.

Princeton's four first-team All-Ivy League selections - Nonie Andersen, Sam Fish, Elizabeth George and Kyla Sears - are all first-team All-Mid-Atlantic Region selections. Tess D'Orsi, Princeton's leading goal-scorer for the year, was named second-team All-Region.

Andersen, the Ivy League's Defender of the Year, had 76 draw controls, second-best on the team this year (and the second-best total in a single-season in program history), as well as 17 caused turnovers.

Fish, the league's Goalie of the Year, led the Ivy League in save percentage and total saves and was second in goals-against average. After just two seasons, she is already ninth all-time at Princeton in career saves, and her 192 this year ranked fifth on the single-season list.

George was the league's unanimous Attacker of the Year after a monster senior year that saw her set the program record for draw controls in a season and career, finish third in a season in total points (87) and fourth in a season in goals (62).

Sears was a unanimous first-team All-Ivy League selection and is now Princeton's first two-time first-team All-Ivy selection after her sophomore year. Sears set the Princeton record for assists in a season with 40, and her 95 points were the second-best total in program history. She was also the MVP of the Ivy League tournament.

D'Orsi led Princeton with 64 goals, which tied for the second-highest total in program history, and her 80 points ranked sixth in a season. The junior is currently sixth all-time at Princeton with 144 career goals.

Princeton went 16-4 in the 2019 season and reached the NCAA quarterfinals before falling to Boston College 17-12 last Saturday. The Tigers won the Ivy League championship for the sixth straight year and the Ivy League Tournament for the second-straight time and had an 11-game winning streak before the loss to BC.
