PRINCETON, N.J. – Four Bears were named to postseason All-Ivy teams, announced by the conference Tuesday afternoon. Lucy Adams and Lexi Pellegrino headline the Bears with First Team All-Ivy honors with sophomore Julia Hitti earning Honorable Mention All-Ivy accolades.
Additionally, senior Lindsey Ross was named to the Academic All-Ivy team.
Brown's picks up two First Team All-Ivy selections for the first time since 2014 and just the tenth time dating back to 1986. Adams and Pellegrino are the first Bears to earn First Team honors as first-years.
Adams is one of four midfielders and one of four first-years named First Team All-Ivy. The Andover, Massachusetts native started all 17 games for the Bears in 2022 and ranked second on the team in goals (5) and points (15). Her five assists ranked third.
Adams was one of six Bears to start all 17 games this fall. Notably, she recorded points in seven straight games in the middle of the season and had a goal and assist in Brown's 2-0 win at Dartmouth.
Pellegrino joins Adams as one of four first-years to earn First Team accolades after leading the team in goals (10) and points (24) in 2022. The Westwood, Massachusetts native recorded at least a point in her first nine collegiate games and was one of three in the Ivy League with double-digit goals. She scored a goal in seven straight during the stretch and capped the scoring run with consecutive game-winners over Sacred Heart and Dartmouth.
Pellegrino ranked ninth in the NCAA in goals among first-years.
Hitti picks up All-Ivy honors for the second straight year in 2022 after captaining the team as a sophomore. The Ashland, Massachusetts native made 15 starts for the Bears and led the team with four defensive saves. Hitti was one of 22 players in the NCAA to record four or more defensive saves this season and was tied for second in the Ivy League alongside Dartmouth's Myah Pease.
The four saves match the fourth-most in a single season in program history alongside her 2021 total and two other Bears. With eight career defensive saves, Hitti is tied with Clayton Christus '15 and Kristen Vincent '06 for third in program history.
