Additionally, the Duke University women’s team led the nation with five of its incoming freshmen making the esteemed list. The University of Michigan men’s program and Marquette University’s women’s program also signed their first Under Armour All-Americans.
At the high school level, the boys squad from Conestoga High School in Berwyn, PA witnessed four of its players make the All-America South team. The girls programs at Garden City High School in Garden City, NY and McDonogh School in Baltimore, MD each had three seniors earn spots on the roster as well.
2012 also marks the third year that Canada will be represented in the game with Johns Hopkins University- bound attackman, Mikey Morris. It is also the first time the Boys Classic will have multiple athletes representing the state of Colorado.
