TOWSON, Md. – Senior defender Alexa Demski of the Towson University women's lacrosse team has been selected to play in the Intercollegiate Women's Lacrosse Coaches Association (IWLCA) North/South Senior All-Star Game on May 26.

Demski, is one of 20 athletes who will make up the North Squad for the game. In total, there will be 40 Division I seniors from 31 schools participating in the event. She will have a chance to play with athletes from Loyola and Stony Brook, two of the schools the Tigers faced during the 2013 campaign. Demski will have a chance to play against athletes from James Madison, Richmond, UMBC and Old Dominion, all teams the Tigers played this season.

“Well it's a huge honor to be asked to be a part of this game and it will be a fun experience getting to play with people I've been playing against for four years,” said Demski. “Though things always get physical and aggressive on the field during games that's just the nature of players' passion for the sport. At the end of the day we have to respect the hard work we all have put in during our four years and share a common love for the game. It's just going to be fun and different getting to work with these players instead of competing against them!”

Earlier this month, Demski earned All-American honors from the IWLCA for the second time in her career. She was a second team selection this year after being a third team pick in 2012. Demski earned IWLCA first-team All-Region honors all four years of her career. She became the second Tiger to earn the Colonial Athletic Association (CAA) Defensive Player of the Year award (Julie Ondrako-2009). She was a first team All-CAA selection for the third straight season.

One of the Tigers' tri-captains, she started all 19 games in 2013 and helped the Tigers win their second straight CAA title. Demski was often given the task of guarding the opponents' top scorer, including during the NCAA Tournament game against Stony Brook. She led the team in ground balls (41) and caused turnovers (22). Earlier this season against Drexel, she had a career-high six caused turnovers and finished her career ranked second in school history with 99 caused turnovers.
