PROVIDENCE, R.I. – Three Bears – Devon McLane, Connor Theriault, and Trevor Yeboah-Kodie – were named USA Lacrosse Division I Preseason All-Americans, announced by the publication earlier today.
McLane and Theriault picked up spots on the Preseason Third Team with Yeboah-Kodie garnering Honorable Mention accolades. All three Bears earned USILA Honorable Mention All-America honors a season ago.
McLane led the Bears in goals (47), assists (24), and points (71) as a junior in 2022. His 71 points are tied for the tenth-most in a single season in Brown program history alongside Dylan Molloy's senior campaign in 2017.
The Westwood, New Jersey native was also honored with First Team All-New England and Second Team All-Ivy honors last season.
Theriault enters his junior campaign after a standout sophomore season in 2022 that saw him pick up First Team All-Ivy and Second Team All-New England honors. The Mount Herman, Massachusetts native started 15 games a season ago, finishing the campaign with double-digit saves in 10 games along with a .537 save percentage and 11.54 goals against average.
Yeboah-Kodie rounds out the Preseason All-Americans with Honorable Mention recognition a season after picking up First Team All-New England and Honorable Mention All-Ivy accolades. The short-stick midfielder posted seven goals and 13 points as a junior and chipped in 27 ground balls.
Among the 76 named Preseason All-Americans, there are 22 student-athletes representing the Ivy League. Penn and Princeton lead the conference with five selections apiece, followed by Cornell (4), Brown (3), Yale (3), and Harvard (2).
The 2023 Bears rank 12th per the Nike / USA Lacrosse Division I Men's Preseason Top-20. Brown is one of six Ivy League programs ranked in the preseason poll. The Bears open the season at Stevenson-Pincince Field against the Quinnipiac Bobcats on Saturday, February 18.
