Mar 24 | Men's Lacrosse
PISCATAWAY, N.J. (March 24, 2010) – Senior midfielder Justin Pennington (Flemington, N.J.) of the Rutgers men’s lacrosse team was named to the 2010 Tewaaraton Watch List, the Greater Washington Sports Alliance announced. Pennington is one of 70 players named to the men’s list.
Pennington leads the squad in assists (8), is second in points (17) and is third in goals (9). His 1.33 assists and 2.83 points-per-game averages rank fourth and sixth in the BIG EAST, respectively.
The Watch List selection is one of many accolades Pennington has earned early this season. He was named an Inside Lacrosse Preseason All-American Honorable Mention, an All-BIG EAST Preseason Selection and has been named to the conference’s Weekly Honor Roll three times so far this season.
The list is made up of the top lacrosse players across all three divisions of collegiate lacrosse and is the early hopefuls for the 2010 Tewaaraton Trophy, which is the premier award for college player of the year. Watch list nominees are screened and selected by two Selection Committees. The Selection Committees are comprised of college coaches, one committee for the men and one committee for the women.
The 2010 Tewaaraton Trophy will be presented on June 3 at the Smithsonian National Museum of the American Indian in Washington, D.C.
Pennington and the rest of the Scarlet Knights open BIG EAST play at Notre Dame on Saturday in a noon game.
