TOWSON, Md. - Goucher College men's lacrosse first year attack Jacob Morgan (Bowie, Md./Bowie) was named the 2023 Landmark Conference Rookie of the Year on Tuesday afternoon.  Morgan becomes the second player in program history to earn the award, joining Goucher Athletic Hall of Fame member Kyle Boncaro, who earned the award in 2009.

Morgan, who joined the Gophers after finishing up with the Goucher men's basketball team this winter, totaled 28 goals and 29 assists for 57 points to lead the team in point production.  A one-time Landmark Offensive Athlete of the Week, Morgan finished with the most points and assists in a season since Owen Demmerly notched 29 assists and 60 points in 2016.  He scored at least one goal in 13 of the 15 games in which he appeared, posted seven multi-goal games, and had multiple assists on seven occasions, including a seven-assist game, one shy of the single-game program record, against Rosemont on March 22.
