BOSTON - Graduate students Roy Meyer and Patrick Morrison of the Boston University men's lacrosse team were named preseason All-Americans by Inside Lacrosse, the publication announced on Monday.

Meyer landed on the first team while Morrison was an honorable mention selection. Both standouts were also named USA Lacrosse Magazine preseason All-Americans in addition to securing spots on the preseason All-Patriot League Team.

Meyer has firmly established himself as the best LSM in the country over the past two seasons. The only two-time First Team All-American in program history, Meyer once again helped BU rank first in the NCAA in caused turnovers per game (12.07). He finished the year with a team-high 32 caused turnovers and was fourth in the country with 2.29 caused turnovers per game, finishing the season with 11 caused turnovers over his last three games. Meyer recorded at least two ground balls in all 14 games and his 64 ground balls ranked second on the squad behind only faceoff specialist Conor Calderone. Meyer also scored a career-high three goals in 2023.

A two-time First Team All-Patriot League and Academic All-Patriot League honoree, Meyer is the only active player in the NCAA with over 100 caused turnovers. He tops the Terrier record book with 118 caused turnovers and is also fourth all-time (second among non-faceoff specialists) in program history with 183 ground balls. The E. Ray Speare Award winner as the department's top male senior scholar-athlete, Meyer has recorded an impressive 90 caused turnovers and 145 ground balls over the past two seasons.

Morrison was the Terriers' top close defender in 2023 en route to a second consecutive First Team All-Patriot League accolade. Typically tasked with covering the opponent's top attackman, Morrison set career highs with 46 ground balls and 26 caused turnovers en route to four Patriot League Defensive Player of the Week awards. He closed season with two caused turnovers in five straight games and averaged 4.0 ground balls per game over final three regular-season contests. Morrison gathered six ground balls and two caused turnovers in the regular-season finale at then-No. 9 Army West Point, including a caused turnover and ground ball late in the fourth quarter to set up the game-winning possession that help secured a second straight PL regular-season title.

A three-year starter on defense, Morrison has recorded 113 ground balls and 56 caused turnovers during his illustrious career. He is a two-time First Team All-New England honoree who ranks fifth all-time at BU in caused turnovers and eighth all-time at BU in ground balls. His 113 ground balls is fifth all-time among non-faceoff specialists.
