The Jumbos were awarded with six All-NESCAC First Team honorees, while also adding two Second Team selections as voted on by the league coaches. Tufts saw senior attack
Jack Regnery and
Brooks Hauser join middies
Garrett Kelly and
Will Emsing on the First Team, while first-year defender
Jack Donovan and sophomore goalkeeper
Jack Old also picking up a top team spot.
Defenders
Ben Frisoli and
Logan Lee also were picked to the All-NESCAC Second Team.
The All-NESCAC pick for Regnery was the third First Team pick of his career, as he was the 2025 NESCAC Player of the Year as well. Kelly was also a repeat All-NESCAC First Team selection after picking up Second Team accolades as a sophomore, while the picks for Hauser, Emsing, Old and Donvan were their first All-NESCAC honors.
Frisoli was a First Team selection at LSM as a junior, while Lee also earned his first league honor Thursday.
Regnery ranks fourth in the conference in goals per game with 2.94, while his 5.06 points per game are third-most in the NESCAC. Hauser is third in the conference in goals per game with 2.94 per contest, ranking second on the Jumbo squad with 63 points.
Emsing is fourth on the Tufts team with 56 points from the midfield line, while his 29 assists ranks second on the team. Kelly ranks fourth on the team in goals scored this year with 31, adding three game-winning goals.
Donovan has been an impact close defender for the Jumbos in his first season, causing a team-high 25 turnovers while adding 23 ground balls in 16 starts for Tufts. He has been sound in front of first-year starting keeper
Jack Old, who is stopping a stellar 59.5 percent of shots between the pipes for Tufts. Old has allowed just 8.67 goals per game.
Lee is second on the team in caused turnovers as a junior with 22, adding three assists and 22 grounders. Frisoli has missed some games recently, but he is among the team leaders in ground balls while also netting six goals in transition for the Jumbos.
Bowdoin's Casey Ryan was the NESCAC Player of the Year, while Nico Schermer of Bowdoin was the Defensive Player of the Year. Bowdoin also picked up Coaching Staff of the Year, and Colby College newcomer Eli Chilicki was the NESCAC Rookie of the Year.
