Sarah Reznick tabbed to Second Team; Becky Browndorf, Emily Heller and Emma LoPinto earn Third Team nod
GAINESVILLE, Fla. – Four members of the Florida lacrosse team added another postseason honor to their resume as the ILWomen All-Americans were announced Thursday morning.
Sarah Reznick earned a spot on the Second Team, while Becky Browndorf, Emily Heller and Emma LoPinto each found themselves as Third Team All-Americans.
This is the second ILWomen All-America honor for the trio of Reznick, Heller and LoPinto, while Browndorf earned the first All-American nod of her career.
This quartet also found themselves on one of the two IWLCA All-Region Teams, announced on May 11. Reznick, Heller and LoPinto each earned a spot on the All-Region First Team, while Browndorf was named as a Second Team honoree.
The Gators finished the 2023 season with a 17-4 record overall and a 5-1 run in conference play. For the 10th time in program history, including the ninth-straight year, the Gators were able to hoist the conference tournament championship trophy, having defeated then-No. 6 James Madison in the AAC Championship game.
In the seventh year of this award, ILWomen staff and contributors were asked to select four first-team, four second-team, and four third-team attackers and defenders, then three first-team, three second-team and three third-team midfielders, and finally one first-team, one second-team and one third-team draw specialist and goalkeeper. The teams were selected based on the cumulative total of votes received, with honorable mention honorees receiving more than one vote.
