LOUISVILLE, Ky. – The United States Intercollegiate Lacrosse Association (USILA) announced its All-America teams on Thursday, May 22, with three Landmark Conference student-athletes earning Honorable Mention recognition.

2025 USILA All-America Teams

Victor Rosado (Catholic University), Jake Rainero (Drew University), and Zachariah Palinkas (University of Scranton) were all honored.

Rosado, the 2025 Landmark Offensive Player of the Year, capped a stellar senior season with team highs in goals (39), assists (37), and points (76), while also collecting 51 ground balls — third-most on the team. His 37 assists are tied for eighth in Landmark single-season history, and his 76 points rank sixth. He graduates as Catholic’s all-time leader in both assists (103) and points (223).

Rainero, the Landmark Conference Rookie of the Year and a First Team All-Conference selection was dominant at the faceoff X. He won an astounding 74.8 percent of his attempts (305-for-408), picked up 209 ground balls, and added 11 points on six goals and five assists. Nationally, he ranked third in Division III in faceoffs won, faceoff winning percentage, and ground balls per game (12.29).

His most remarkable performance came in the regular-season finale when he went 31-for-35 on faceoffs and collected an NCAA Division III-record-tying 31 ground balls in a Landmark win at Juniata. He posted 20 or more faceoff wins in five games, including a perfect 20-for-20 outing at Wilkes — becoming just the 30th player in Division III history to achieve 20 faceoff wins without a loss. For the season, Rainero set Drew single-season records for faceoff winning percentage, faceoffs won, and ground balls, while also establishing new Landmark Conference records in the latter two categories.

Palinkas, the Landmark Conference Defensive Player of the Year and a First Team All-Conference pick, anchored a Scranton defense that allowed just 51 goals in Landmark play and posted a perfect 9-0 record against conference opponents. He ranked second on the team in caused turnovers (23) and third in ground balls (46), helping lead the Royals to their third consecutive conference title.
