MANCHESTER, N.H. – Senior Tyler Mello (Acushnet, Mass.) of the Southern New Hampshire University men's lacrosse team was named an Inside Lacrosse Division II Preseason All-America on Thursday, as the publication released its annual preseason national honors. Mello earned a place on the Third Team.
A two-time All-Northeast-10 Conference and All-New England selection, Mello enters his final season on the heels of the strongest campaign of his career. He was named to the All-NE10 Third Team at the conclusion of his junior year after starting in each of the 13 games in which he appeared in. Mello collected a career-high 31 ground balls and caused 13 turnovers to anchor Southern New Hampshire's defense while also chipping in with an assist.
