BREVARD COUNTY • MELBOURNE, FLORIDA – Reid Chaconas was named a 2020 Maverik Division II Media First Team All-American by Inside Lacrosse on last Wednesday.

The senior midfielder becomes the first player in program history to collect first-team honors. Chaconas is the fourth Panther to be selected as an All-American, joining Addison Abramson (3rd Team, 2017), Grant Hughes (HM, 2017) and Logan Sweeney (3rd Team, 2019).

Chaconas is one of eight players from the Sunshine State Conference featured on the 2020 All-American teams. Tampa faceoff specialist, Ross Dickerson, accompanies him on the first team.

Tabbed a Preseason Second Team All-American this season by Inside Lacrosse, Chaconas played in all eight games for the Crimson & Gray this season and recorded 17 goals and four assists to go along with 15 ground balls.

The Westminster, Md. native scored at least one goal in every game in 2020, including a season-high four goals against No. 18 Saint Anselm. Chaconas recorded a season-best five points in two games this season.

A three-time All-Sunshine State Conference selection prior to this season, Chaconas currently ranks fifth in program history with 105 career points on 86 goals and 19 assists. His 86 goals rank second all-time, and just 10 behind former Panther Andrew Conley (96).
