BETHLEHEM, Pa. – Lehigh men's lacrosse senior Craig Chick, currently third in NCAA history for caused turnovers, has garnered another honor as he was named to the Tewaaraton Award Watch List, as announced Thursday night. One of just 50 honorees nationally and five in the Patriot League recognized, Chick marks Lehigh's Tewaaraton Award candidate in as many years – following classmate Andrew Pettit who was added to the watch list in late March. Chick is Lehigh's first honoree named to the initial watch list since Dan Taylor in 2015.
The Tewaaraton Watch Lists include the top players across all three divisions of NCAA lacrosse and highlight the early contenders for the 2019 Tewaaraton Award, which honors the top male and female college lacrosse player in the United States. The selection committees are made up of premier collegiate coaches and are appointed annually by The Tewaaraton Foundation.
Through four games in his senior season, Chick owns 19 groundballs and nine caused turnovers in 2019 to up her career caused turnover total to 127. He needs 31 more to tie, and 32 to break, the all-time record of 158 held by Detroit's Jordan Houtby.
Chick was an Inside Lacrosse preseason All-American after garnering honorable mention then second team laurels following his sophomore and junior seasons, respectively. Chick also garnered USILA honorable mention All-America recognition following his junior campaign. The two-time first team All-Patriot League honoree entered his senior season with 167 groundballs, 118 caused turnovers, six goals and 10 assists. He recorded a nation's leading 37 caused turnovers as a freshman and school-record 40 as a sophomore, before breaking his own mark with 41 as a junior.
Chick and the Mountain Hawks will open Patriot League play on Saturday, Mar. 2 at No. 16/19 Colgate. Opening faceoff is set for 12 p.m.
