BRYN ATHYN, Pa. - The Colonial States Athletic Conference (CSAC) announced the women's lacrosse end of season awards this morning. The Lions had seven players recognized: junior Payton Gormley, junior Paulina Storck, junior Tori Titano, junior Jenessa Lombardi, freshman Lindsay Kinsky, freshman Nicole McCurdy, and freshman Raven Bozek. 

Payton Gormley was named Offensive Player of the Year and First Team All CSAC. Gormley is the first Bryn Athyn women's lacrosse player to be named Player of the Year in the conference. Gormley was an offensive force all season tallying 32 points, 23 goals, and nine assists. The junior attack was top five in all offensive categories in the CSAC. She ranked tied for first in goals, second in goals per game, second in points, third in points per game, and fourth in assists. This is Gormley's second All-CSAC nod of her career. 

Nicole McCurdy put together the best season from a true freshman in the CSAC, and was recognized as a First Team All CSAC performer. She was one of the best playmakers the conference had all season long. McCurdy logged 22 points, 11 goals, and 11 assists in her inaugural season. The freshman midfielder ranked tied for tenth in goals and second in the conference in assists. McCurdy was also a force on the defensive side of the field ranking top three in ground balls per game and second in draw controls. 

Freshman Lindsay Kinsky rounded out the first team selections for the Lions. Kinsky was a stone wall on the defensive side of the field. Kinsky athleticism and competitiveness shined as a defensive menace. Kinsky was apart of the group that had the second best defense in the conference. Kinsky picked up eight ground balls in her debut season. 

Freshman Raven Bozek was named second team All CSAC for the Lions. Like Kinsky, Bozek was apart of the defensive group that was ranked second in the league. Bozek logged one goal on the season and scooped 12 ground balls on the way to her second team all conference selection. 

Junior Paulina Storck was a rock all season for the Lions. Storck was named Second Team All CSAC after producing a 10 point, seven goal, and three assist season. Storck also picked up 13 ground balls on the season. The most memorable moment for Storck this season was her game winning goal in overtime against Wilson College on April 17 to lock up the two seed in CSAC playoffs for the Lions. This is Storcks second All CSAC nod of her career.

Junior Tori Titano was recognized as Second Team All CSAC for the Lions after a strong offensive scoring season. Titano was top ten in the conference in goals. She logged a 12 point season to go along with 11 goals and one assist. This is Titano's first all conference nod of her career.

The final award given to the Lions went to Jenessa Lombardi who was named to the CSAC All Sportsmanship team. Lombardi was a brick wall in net for the Lions helping lead the team to one of the top ranked defenses in the conference.

The Lions finished the season 4-1 in the CSAC and secured the two seed in CSAC Championship Playoffs before COVID-19 protocols forced the Lions to withdraw from the tournament. Congratulations to the team and the seven individuals who were recognized for all conference awards. Go Lions!
