ANNAPOLIS, Md. – Junior attacker Kelly Larkin (Alexandria, Va.) was selected Intercollegiate Women's Lacrosse Coaches Association (IWLCA) First Team All-South Region. It is the second time in her three-year career that Larkin has been named First Team IWLCA All-South Region.
 
Larkin joins Jenna Collins (2015-18), Jasmine DePompeo (2010-13), and Loren Generi (2012-15) as the only Midshipmen in school history to earn multiple IWLCA All-Region distinctions. The trio of Collins, DePompeo, and Generi were each named All-South Region three times. Collins and DePompeo both earned first-team honors as seniors en route to All-American accolades. Larkin is the first Midshipmen to earn first-team recognition in multiple seasons (2018, '19).
 
Larkin earned her third overall All-Conference accolade and second consecutive first team distinction earlier this year. She was named Attacker of the Year for the first time in her career, becoming the first Navy player to earn the award since Jasmine DePompeo (2010-13) earned Offensive Player of the Year in three consecutive seasons (2011, '12, 13).
 
She is the first player in Patriot League history to record three 100-point seasons. In addition, the junior holds the Navy and Patriot League record for career points with 346, passing DePompeo for the all-time record. She ranks second in Navy history with 161 assists (six shy of first place) and fifth in career goals with 185 (39 shy of first place).
 
Larkin led the team with 121 points on a team-high 69 goals and team-best 52 assists. The Alexandria, Va. native played and started all 21 games on the season. She scored at least one goal in all 21 games, including netting hat tricks in 14 games. She notched at least one assist in 15 games with multiple helpers in 12 games. Larkin converted 10 free-position opportunities and netted six game-winning goals. In addition, she added 26 ground balls and eight caused turnovers on the year.
 
The IWLCA has honored 128 student-athletes in Division I with a selection to one of the All-Region teams for 2019. These student-athletes are now eligible to be named to a national IWLCA All-American team. The IWLCA will celebrate the 2019 All-Americans during Divisional All-American Specials, which will be aired on Lax Sports Network in mid-June.
