Inside Lacrosse revealed the 2019 Face-Off Yearbook: Preseason Media All-Americans today. It is voted on by media members who vote in the weekly Media Poll and consists of 1st, 2nd, & 3rd Teams, and Honorable Mentions.
I’ve gotten the email the last couple years, but I always submit a combined ballot with help from Chris, Adam, Jake, & Ryan. This year The Kid Chris will also be voting in the weekly Media Poll, and as such submitted his own ballot for the 2019 Preseason Media All-Americans. You should definitely check out his post on his ballot, which you can find here.
Seeing as transparency and accountability are important to us here at College Crosse, you can find the Preseason Media All-Americans ballot that I submitted to IL (with the help of Chris, Adam, Jake, & Ryan) directly below.
