NEW YORK | The Skyline Conference's eight head men's lacrosse coaches have cast their ballots on the 2022 edition of the all-conference team, and for the second season in a row, Farmingdale State College senior attackman Terrence Haggerty (Centerport, N.Y.) has been tabbed as the Offensive Player of the Year.
Haggerty headlines a quartet of Rams student-athletes named to the all-conference first-team, including senior mid Johnny McMahon (Albertson, N.Y.), junior defender Gino Luchetti (Farmingville, N.Y.) and sophomore face-off specialist Antonio Kaminskey (Lindenhurst, N.Y.). Additionally, senior attack Jake Wandle (Rocky Point, N.Y.), junior mid Hunter Lyons (E. Islip, N.Y.), freshman defender Christian Lembo (Farmingdale, N.Y.) and junior goalie Kevin Loonie (Lynbrook, N.Y.) garnered second-team accolades. Senior defender Jack Conklin (Wantagh, N.Y.) earned a spot on the All-Sportsmanship Team.
A three-time USILA honorable-mention All-America selection, Haggerty repeats as the winner of the Skyline's top offensive honor after leading the Skyline in goals (54, 3.38/gm.), assists (39, 2.44/gm. – second in Skyline) and points (93, 5.81/gm.). He holds national per-game rankings in points (15th), goals (32nd) and assists (37th).
McMahon collected 62 points (34g, 28a) and 58 ground balls in the FSC midfield, causing 19 turnovers in the process. His 3.88 points per game are the third-best mark in the Skyline, as are his 1.75 assists per contest.
Luchetti caused a team-high 29 turnovers on the Rams' backline, while his 1.93 per-game average is the third-best mark in the Skyline.
Kaminskey led the Skyline in both ground balls per game (10.38) and face-off winning percentage (.674), ranking Nos. 8 and 16 in Division III, respectively.
Wandle repeats as a second-team all-conference selection after scoring 34 goals (2.27/gm. – 5th in Skyline), dishing out 22 assists (1.47/gm. – sixth) and collecting 56 points (3.73/gm. – fourth).
Lyons earned career-highs in goals (26), points (33) and ground balls (26) as a regular on head coach Sean Chamberlain's first midfield line, scoring a career-high four goals in the March 19 triumph over New Paltz.
Lembo started in 14 of his 15 appearances as a true freshman on the Farmingdale State backline, scooping 33 ground balls and causing nine turnovers in the process.
Loonie ranks No. 2 in the Skyline in goals-against average (8.33) and save percentage (.591) – marks that rank Nos. 23 and 27 in Division III, respectively.
Conklin started all 16 games on the backline for the Rams – his first season as a full-time starter, registering 13 ground balls and eight caused turnovers in front of Loonie.
