It’s senior year which means that this is the time for these athletes to go out in style. With all of the hard work that they’ve put in throughout their four years in school, this was their last opportunity to put on that uniform and showcase what makes them so great. These players aren’t just exceptionally skilled, but they also have strong leadership skills as many of them are looked upon as role models for the younger players. As their college careers are coming to a close, here are the top senior athletes in college men’s lacrosse in a list created by the LILJ.
