The honor marked the first time any GW lacrosse student-athlete has earned the award since 2018.Â
SCOUTING THE PATRIOTS Â

Inducted into GW's Hall of Fame in 2016, Laura Hostetler set GW lacrosse's all-time program record with 153 goals in just three seasons from 2004-06. Hostetler appears in GW's single-season top 10 list three different times for her school-record 54 goals in 2005 and 2006 and her 45 goal-effort in 2004. Hostetler owns GW's single-season points record with 79 and holds three other top-ten marks in that category. Hostetler was a key part of the program's first-ever A-10 Tournament appearance in 2005. She is the program's only All-American and the only player to earn All-Conference First Team selection three times.Â
