FULL RELEASE
BALTIMORE- Two Boston College women's lacrosse players highlight the Inside Lacrosse Preseason All-American List, which was released last week.
Senior midfielder Sarah Mannelly garnered Preseason First Team All-American accolades while fellow midfielder Caroline Margolis was selected as an Inside Lacrosse Preseason Second Team All-American.Â
The two seniors, who have each had crucial roles in the Eagles offense over the past three seasons, look to continue their success as they complete their final season at Boston College in 2016.Â
Mannelly, who last season was selected to the Inside Lacrosse Preseason Third Team All-American list, paced the Eagles with 50 goals and 17 assists on 117 shots in a season that saw Boston College advance to the second round of the NCAA Tournament after going 15-3 during the regular season. She is the fourth Eagle to be selected to the Inside Lacrosse Preseason All-American First Team in the last three seasons. Â
The New Canaan, Conn. native was the first-ever Boston College Tewaaraton Award finalist after she recorded four game-winning goals during the 2015 campaign. Her 21 caused turnovers were a team-high while her 31 groundballs and 40 draw controls were second best, respectively. Mannelly's 67 points were the eighth-most points recorded in a single season at Boston College.Â
Joining Mannelly is Caroline Margolis, who led all Eagles with 28 assists while totaling 37 goals for 65 points in 2015. Named to the 2015 All-ACC Academic Team and the IWLCA All- Northeast Regional second team, Margolis picked up 28 ground balls and won 34 draw controls.
A product of Raleigh, N.C., the midfielder's 65 points were the ninth most in a single season by a Boston College women's lacrosse player.Â
The Inside Lacrosse Preseason All-Americans lists are put together after consideration by IL's staff and longtime contributors, according to the release. Of the 31 members on the Inside Lacrosse Preseason First and Second All-American Teams, 13 players are from ACC schools. Â
Both Mannelly and Margolis were recently selected as two of the four team captains for the 2016 season by head coach Acacia Walker. They will kick off the season on February 14 at Boston University.Â
