Emmet Carroll, GK – First Team
A consensus second-team All-America between the pipes in 2024, Carroll also was Tewaaraton Award nominee and first-team All-Ivy selection last season. He finished with a .594 save percentage, leading the nation in that category, and posted a 10.82 goals-against average. That included his scintillating performance in the Ivy League Tournament, where Carroll came up with a career-high 19 saves in a semifinal win over Cornell and followed it up with another career high (20) in the final against Princeton. Carroll also landed fourth nationally on Inside Lacrosse's Top 50 Players For 2025 list, announced on December 16.
 
Brendan Lavelle, D – First Team
Lavelle was a consensus first-team All-America and unanimous first-team All-Ivy selection in 2024 and is looking to repeat those accolades in 2025. His most noteworthy performance last year came against No. 1 Duke, when he totaled six ground balls and two caused turnovers and held reigning Tewaaraton Award winner Brennan O'Neill to just one goal on eight shots as Penn handed the top-ranked Blue Devils their first loss of the year. Lavelle also landed tenth nationally on Inside Lacrosse's Top 50 Players For 2025 list.
 
Tyan Walsh, A – Honorable Mention
Walsh led Penn in assists (22) and points (45) last season and was third in goals (23). He enters the 2025 campaign with 41 career goals and 41 assists for 82 points. The senior attackman had ten multi-point games and seven multi-goal outings in 2024, including four-goal performances against Dartmouth and Harvard and a seven-point game (2g/5a) against Delaware.
 
Cam Rubin, M – Honorable Mention
Rubin was Penn's leading goal scorer last year, with 31 tallies, and he enters the 2025 season with 77 career goals and 96 career points. His top performances in 2024 arguably came against Cornell and Harvard, as he scored six goals in both of those regular-season contests. His sixth goal against the Big Red was the overtime winner, and he also had the winner in Penn's 14-12 victory over No. 1 Duke (the program's second-ever win against a No. 1-ranked team).
 
Penn—which was ranked 12th in USA Lacrosse Magazine's Preseason Top 20—opens the 2025 season on Saturday, Feb. 15 at Georgetown which is ranked 14th in the preseason poll. The Quakers' 2025 schedule features eight games against teams in the USA Lacrosse Magazine preseason poll—five of them against Top 8 teams—as well as UAlbany and Villanova which were among five teams in the "also receiving votes" section.
