2023 All-Section Five List Released
June 17, 2023 - For the eighth time and after a brief absence, Section Five Lacrosse leadership has selected first, second and honorable mention lists of All-Section players.
The 2023 first team lists fifteen players and includes the six All-Americans previously announced. "It`s always difficult to choose from so many talented players," said Section Five Chairman, Mike Simon.
To be nominated each player was required to be selected to their first team all-league (except Independent teams). The lists were selected from a pool of seventy-nine players. The selections were reviewed by Chairmen of each of the three leagues, two at-large coaches the Lacrosse Coordinator and Assistant Coordinator.
Although grade and league were not major factors in selection, the lists show the skills that are found throughout the section. Twelve Monroe County teams were represented on the lists, with the rest representing Finger Lakes (5), GRALL(2) and Independents (1). Showing that the "Best of the Best" can come from any age group, there were 28 seniors, 7 juniors, 4 sophomores, and 1 freshman listed. Distribution among the positions shows 9 midfielders, 12 attackmen, 7 defensemen, 4 FO specialists, 3 LSM, 1 SSDM, and 2 goalies.
