WILLIAMSPORT, Pa. – Seniors Jakob Switzer (West Pittston, Pa./Wyoming Area) and Ben Franco (Macungie, Pa./Emmaus) wrapped up their careers with the Lycoming College men's lacrosse team by earning slots on the honorable mention portion of the All-Landmark Conference team, the conference office announced on Wednesday, April 30.
 
Switzer, a longstick midfielder, earned his first all-conference honors after he led the Landmark Conference in caused turnovers per game for the second year in a row.
