NEC MEN’S LACROSSE PLAYER OF THE WEEK
Ben McIsaac, LIU
Jr., A, Toronto, Ontario, Canada/Humberside
McIsaac was a key cog in the LIU offense that had one of the best performances in program history on Saturday. The Sharks defeated Mercyhurst, 25-6, with the junior scoring six times. Every shot McIsaac put on frame found the back of the net, putting him at 30 goals for the season. The Toronto native is averaging a hat trick per game, good for the second best goal-scoring rate in the league. He also sits second in the NEC in points (38) and points per game (3.80). LIU's offensive eruption tied a school record for team points in a game, with the Sharks racking up 45 points on the day. With the win, LIU improved to 10-1 on the season and 4-0 in NEC play.

NEC MEN’S LACROSSE DEFENSIVE PLAYER OF THE WEEK
Lucas Winger, Le Moyne
Jr., G, Glenview, IL/Glenview
Winger was outstanding in Le Moyne's 6-4 win over Detroit Mercy last weekend. The 2025 NEC Defensive Player of the Year helped the Dolphins climb back to .500 in conference play by making 12 saves and maintaining a .750 save percentage. Eight of Winger's saves came in the second half, allowing Le Moyne to come from behind and claim the victory. The junior stifled the Titan offense in the fourth quarter, shutting them out while his team scored three goals in the period. Winger leads the NEC in both save percentage (.573) and saves per game (13.85).
