WALTHAM, Mass. – Four players from the Bentley women's lacrosse team were voted All-North Region by the IWLCA, it was announced on Friday. Junior goalie Lauren Ochs' (Rochester, N.Y./Irondequiot) selection to the first team highlighted the selections.

Along with Ochs, senior midfielder Meredith Hart (Fairport, N.Y./Fairport) was named to the second team. While senior attacker Kelsey Howard (Scarborough, Maine/Scarborough) and sophomore defender Paige O'Neill (Amityville, N.Y./St. John's) landed on the third team.

All four were key contributors to Bentley's record breaking season which saw them run off a program record 11 game winning streak, advance to the Northeast-10 semifinals and just miss out on the school's first NCAA Tournament berth.

Ochs was previously named the NE-10 Goalie of the Year and first team All-Conference. She played every minute of every game this season. She ranked 3^rd in the NE-10 in total saves (163), 4^th in save percentage (47.7) and 5^th in goals against average (9.42).

Hart had earlier garnered second team All-Conference honors. An all-around midfielder, she led the team in both ground balls (46) and caused turnovers (18) and was second in draw controls (49). Offensively, she finished the season 4^th on the team in both goals (32) and points (37).

Howard put up big offensive numbers in her final season. She finished 2^nd on the squad in each of goals (38), assists (17) and points (55). Howard finished her career with 121 points, which ranks 11^th most in the program's history. She was previously selected second team All-Conference as well.

O'Neill started all 19 games Bentley played this season as only a sophomore. She helped the Falcons post the 4^th lowest team GAA in the NE-10 (9.42), while collecting 19 ground balls and causing eight turnovers. She previously earned the distinction of becoming Bentley's first All-Conference defender since 2008.
