FOXBOROUGH, MA -- Curtis Dickson, who ranked among the nation’s
leading scorers and led the University of Delaware men’s lacrosse team
to the Colonial Athletic Association semifinals this spring, has been
named to the United States Intercollegiate Lacrosse Association
honorable mention All-American team.
Dickson, a sophomore from Port Coquitlam, British Columbia (Riverside
High School), was among the top offensive players in the country
throughout the season and led the CAA in goals scored and total points.
Prior to the NCAA Championships, Dickson ranked fifth in the NCAA in
goal scoring with 2.88 goals per game and ninth in the NCAA in point
scoring with 3.81 points per game.
Dickson, who earned CAA All-Rookie team honors a year ago and first team
All-CAA honors this spring, led the Blue Hens with 62 points on 46 goals
and 16 assists and ended the season with a goal-scoring streak of 25
straight games, the third longest in school history. His 46 goals was
the most by a Blue Hen player since Randy Powers tallied 47 goals in
1985 and his 62 points was the most by a Delaware player since Jason
Lavey scored 71 points in 2000.
Delaware has now had a player named to the USILA All-American team four
straight years.
A finalist for the Tewaaraton Trophy as the top player in the nation,
Dickson scored three or more goals eight times on the season with a
career-high six vs. league champion Drexel. He also earned a spot on the
CAA All-Tournament team after scoring twice in Delaware’s 9-7 CAA
semifinal loss to eventual league champion Hofstra. Delaware finished
with a 9-7 overall record for its fifth straight winning season.
Dickson was among three CAA players to earn a spot on the All-American
team, joining honorable mention goalkeeper Bruce Bickford from Drexel
and honorable mention midfielder Anthony Muscarella from Hofstra.
