Dartmouth's Bonacci Named to Lowe's Senior Class First Team

May 28, 2007

BALTIMORE, Md. - Senior Nick Bonacci (Crofton, Md.) of Dartmouth men's lacrosse was voted to the Lowe's Senior Class All-Senior All-America team.

Bonacci earned a spot on the first team as a result of a nationwide vote of coaches, media and fans.

Twice a first team All-Ivy and All-New England honoree, Bonacci was a three-year starter and four-year letterwinner for the Big Green. He will graduate in June with a degree in economics after compiling a GPA of 3.88.

Cornell goalie Matt McMonagle was named the inaugural Lowe's Senior CLASS award winner. Bonacci and McMonagle joined three other athletes as first team selections, and five more were tabbed second team.

Earlier this year, Lowe's announced the addition of men's lacrosse and three other NCAA sports to the award program that originally was launched in 2001 with basketball. An acronym for "Celebrating Loyalty and Achievement for Staying in School," the Lowe's Senior CLASS Award has grown into a premier tribute to college seniors. The award identifies personal qualities that define a complete student athlete, with criteria including excellence in the classroom, character and community as well as competition in sports.
