WASHINGTON, D.C. – The Greater Washington Alliance announced today they added 10 men, including Virginia’s Adam Ghitelman and Chris LaPierre, to its Tewaaraton Award Watch List. On March 4 the original watch list also included UVa’s Chris Bocklet, Shamel Bratton and Steele Stanwick.
Ghitelman is one of the nation’s top goalies, sitting in a tie for No. 6 all-time with 44 career goalie wins, tops in the ACC. His 500 career saves rank No. 3 all-time at Virginia. LaPierre is a valuable asset to the Cavaliers all over the field. He leads the team with 58 ground balls and on the side has succeed on 51.6 percent of faceoffs (16-of-31).
The Tewaaraton Award was formally established in August of 2000 by The University Club of Washington, DC and is the pre-eminent lacrosse award, which is awarded annually to the NCAA male and female lacrosse players of the year. Tradition dictates that each year the Tewaaraton Award celebrates one of the six tribal nations of the Iroquois Confederacy: the Mohawk, Cayuga, Oneida, Onondaga, Seneca, and the Tuscarora. The 11th annual Tewaaraton Award event is set to recognize the Year of the Tuscarora.
This year’s Tewaaraton Award will be presented on June 2, 2011 at the historical Warner Theatre in Washington, D.C. Event details and ticket information can be found at www.TewaaratonAward.org.
