Rosenzweig, earning First-Team All-Ivy recognition for the second straight year, leads the Ivy League in points with 79 (30 goals and 49 assists). Her 5.27 points per-game average is the best single-season average in school history. She is one of 25 nominees for the 2019 Tewaaraton Award, which is presented annually to college lacrosse’s most outstanding player.
