The honor is awarded to only the top 100 lacrosse athletes in the country and is the first All-American lacrosse honor awarded to a Woodside High student, according to U.S. Lacrosse, the national governing body of lacrosse.

The athletes were nominated by their coaches and supported by their respective leagues.

A presentation of the award was made recently at Woodside High School, where Alex was a graduating senior. He plans to attend Kenyon College in the fall. He is the son of Cathy Oyster, a Woodside High School alumnae, and Carlos Lopez.

Among Alex Lopez honors at Woodside High, he was named senior male athlete of the year and received an Athletic Boosters scholarship award.
