PERRY, N.Y. – Three Towson University men's lacrosse players will have the chance to suit up once more as collegiate athletes as the trio earned a roster spot for the upcoming USILA North/South Game.
 
Redshirt senior goalie Tyler White, senior defenseman Mike Lowe and senior attackman Spencer Parks all earned a place on the South team's roster. High Point University headman Jon Torpey will coach the Division I & II team, along with assistant coaches Mike Corrado (Villanova), Pat Tracy (High Point) and Ryan Cassidy (High Point). Gene Corrigan (Washington & Lee, University of Virginia, Notre Dame, ACC) will serve as the Division I & II game's Legendary Coach.
 
Reserved for players in their final year of eligibility, the USILA North/South Divisions I & II Game will be played for a 75^th time on Friday, May 27 at 5:30 p.m. in Radnor, Pennsylvania at Cabrini College. The Division III game will take place at 3 p.m. from the same location.
 
White, who hails from Elmira Heights, New York, graduated as one of the program's top goaltenders. He finished his career with a 36-16 record, the most wins ever by a goalie in the Colonial Athletic Association (CAA) since the league added men's lacrosse in 2001. White's career goals against average of 7.93 is second all-time at Towson, while his 477 saves are good enough for ninth in program history. White played in 3,050 minutes during his time with the Black & Gold, surrendering just 403 goals. He allowed just 127 opponent tallies this season, the fewest in a single season in his career, despite playing in all 19 games and 1,105 minutes, both career highs. During his final campaign, White had a goals against average of just 6.89, breaking his own single-season record from last year (7.57). The Corning East High School product had one goal during his time with the Tigers, potting a full-field shot at the end of regulation on April 23, 2016 against Fairfield during the Tigers' 18-11 win on Senior Day. The CAA Defensive Player of the Year in 2015, White earned a place on the league's Second Team in 2016. He also earned weekly honors as the NCAA Defensive Player of the Week and CAA Player of the Week.
 
A four-year staple along the backline, Lowe played in 70 games during his Towson career. A shut-down defender, the Monrovia, Maryland native stripped opponents 48 times since 2013, including a career-best 21 this season. Both his career and season totals rank fifth in the program records since the 2002 season. The former Urbana High School standout anchored a defense that will likely finish the 2016 athletic year ranked first in goals allowed per game, while the Tiger defense was ranked in the top 10 nationally in the last two seasons. Lowe snapped up 111 career groundballs, including 47 during his final season. The close defenseman graduates with four career points to his name, including two this season thanks to an assist and a transition goal on the road at CAA foe Massachusetts. Following an outstanding performance during the 2016 CAA Men's Lacrosse Championship, Lowe was selected as the tournament's Most Outstanding Player, in addition to being the first-ever Tiger to earn CAA Player of the Week as a close defenseman.
 
Parks came to the Tigers following two seasons at the University of North Carolina. First suiting up for Towson in 2015, the Fallston, Maryland native capped his Black & Gold career with 79 points on 45 goals and 34 assists. He finished with a career-best 48 points this season, putting 29 goals along with 19 assists. The St. Paul's School product was an efficient shooter for Towson, striking on nearly 40 percent of his 2016 shots, while scoring on 58.4 percent of his shots on goal. Parks was twice named the CAA Player of the Week in 2016. 
 
The Tiger trio will be joined on the South team by fellow CAA members Connor Frisina (Delaware) and shortstick midfielder Hank Brown (Drexel). On the North squad, Sam Llinares (Hofstra), TJ Neubauer (Fairfield), Finn Sullivan (Hofstra), Korey Hendrickson (Hofstra), and Brian von Bargen (Hofstra) were members of the CAA that were selected to play.
