Moreno, Ortega Are Tewaaraton Award Nominees
April 25, 2019 | Women's Lacrosse
CHESTNUT HILL, MASS.—University of North Carolina sophomores Taylor Moreno and Jamie Ortega are both among 25 nominees for the 2019 Tewaaraton Award, the top individual honor in women's lacrosse.
The Tewaaraton Award committee made the announcement on Thursday after it narrowed down its initial watch list to these 25 nominees.
Moreno, a goalie, and Ortega, and attacker, both earned first-team All-Atlantic Coast Conference honors this season. Moreno is among the national leaders in save percentage and goals-against average, while Ortega has already broken the Carolina single-season points record and is among the national scoring leaders.
The Tewaaraton Award committee will narrow down the list of 25 nominees to five finalists later this spring.
