Senior attacker Madison Taylor has won the 2026 Tewaaraton award, the most prestigious honor given to an NCAA lacrosse athlete.
The accolade was announced at the Tewaaraton Award Ceremony in Washington D.C. on Thursday evening. Taylor becomes the fifth Wildcat to win this award and the first since Izzy Scane did so in 2023 and 2024.
This marks Taylor’s first time receiving the Tewaaraton. She wins it after a strong final season in purple where Taylor had a conference-high 139 points along with 97 goals and 42 assists.
Taylor adds the Tewaaraton to a stacked resume of accomplishments, including breaking the NCAA D1 single-season goals record last season with 109 scores.
