SPARKS, Md. – USA Lacrosse revealed its NCAA Division I women's All-Americans on Thursday, honoring the top individual performers of the 2026 season. Among the honorees was senior attacker Alexis Morton, who earned USA Lacrosse All-America honorable mention honors.
Â
Morton was one of 102 players recognized across 36 Division I programs and the lone student-athlete from the Atlantic 10 Conference to earn All-America honors.
Â
Â
All-Americans were chosen by USA Lacrosse Magazine staff with input from coaches and conferences across the country.
Â
Â
Morton capped a record-breaking senior season by earning Atlantic 10 Offensive Player of the Year honor, first-team all-conference recognition and ILWomen Nike Lacrosse Midseason Media All-America honorable mention accolades. She also was a three-time Atlantic 10 Offensive Player of the Week selection.
Â
In 17 games, Morton totaled 99 points on 57 goals and 42 assists. She finished with a .765 shots-on-goal percentage and a .559 shooting percentage while adding seven ground balls and seven caused turnovers.
Â
Morton helped lead Richmond to one of the nation's top offenses. The Spiders ranked sixth nationally in scoring offense and points per game, ninth in total points, 17th in goals per game and 19th in assists per game. Morton also ranked 20th nationally in shooting percentage.
Â
Within the Atlantic 10, Morton led the conference with 5.82 points per game. She ranked third in goals per game at 3.35 and second in assists per game at 2.47.
Â
Morton also set the Richmond single-season record with 99 points and tied the program's single-game record twice with 11-point performances against VCU and Duquesne.
