WASHINGTON, May 7, 2015 – The Tewaaraton Foundation has announced the men’s and women’s finalists for the 2015 Tewaaraton Award, presented by Under Armour. Five men and five women were selected as finalists and will be invited to Washington, D.C., for the 15th annual Tewaaraton Award Ceremony on May 28, 2015.
The five men’s finalists are University of Denver attackman Wesley Berg, Duke University midfielder Myles Jones, University of Notre Dame attackman Matt Kavanagh, Syracuse University attackman Kevin Rice and University at Albany attackman Lyle Thompson
The five women’s finalists are University of Maryland midfielder Taylor Cummings, University of Florida midfielder Shannon Gilroy, Boston College midfielder Sarah Mannelly, University of Notre Dame defender Barbara Sullivan and Syracuse University attacker Kayla Treanor.
The Tewaaraton Award annually honors the top male and top female college lacrosse player in the United States. Finalists come from a pool of 25 men’s and 25 women’s nominees. The selection committees are comprised of 15 men’s and 14 women’s current and former college coaches.
Syracuse attacker Kayla Treanor, the ACC Offensive Player of the Year and ACC Tournament Most Outstanding Player, is a Tewaaraton finalist for a second consecutive season. The junior from Niskayuna, N.Y., leads the Orange with 53 goals and ranks second on the squad with 27 assists, 80 points, 26 ground balls and 15 caused turnovers. She ranks second in the conference in both points and assists, and her five game-winning goals, including two in the ACC Tournament, are best in the conference. A first team All-ACC performer and U.S. Women’s National Team member, Treanor scored the double-overtime game-winner to lift the sixth-seeded Orange to its first ACC Championship. She would be the program’s first Tewaaraton Award winner.
