USA Lacrosse Release

HENNIKER, N.H. - USA Lacrosse named its NCAA Division-III men's All-Americans on Wednesday, recognizing the top players in the country in 2025. Junior midfielder Daniel Varga (Hampton, N.J.) of the NEC men's lacrosse team earned an honorable mention nod, a high honor to cap off his remarkable season for the Pilgrims. 

Varga started all 17 games for the 'Grims, totaling 97 points with 58 goals scored and 39 assists. His 97 points ranked first in the Great Northeast Athletic Conference (GNAC) points and was the fifth best single season mark in program history. He sat third in goals in the league and added 57 ground balls and 20 caused turnovers. He was one of the top players in the GNAC all season, ultimately being named to the GNAC Second Team All-Conference. He was one of just three student-athletes from the GNAC to earn All-American honorable mention status.

Varga earns this national recognition after his elite season placed him near the top of multiple offensive categories at the national level. Varga finished sixth in Division-III in points per game (5.71) and 21st in goals per game (3.41). He also sat inside the top-50 nationally in assists per game (2.29).
