Block earns Most Outstanding Female Athlete award

WILLIAMSPORT, Pa. - After leading the NCAA in goals in women's lacrosse, senior Riley Block (Hopatcong, N.J./Morris Catholic) was named Lycoming College's Most Outstanding Female Athlete at the Senior Athlete Celebration & Athletics Recognition Banquet on Wednesday night, May 6.
 
The dual-sport athlete was First Team All-Landmark Conference in lacrosse and Second Team All-Landmark Conference in soccer while setting the program record with 15 wins in a season.
 
In lacrosse, Block averaged 6.00 goals per game, the top mark across all NCAA divisions, as she posted four 10-or-more goal performances during the season, including scoring a school and Landmark Conference record 14 in a 20-10 win over Immaculata. She is third in Division III with 7.00 points per game and she finished the season 20th in NCAA Division III history with 292 career goals. Block also finished third in the Landmark Conference in draw controls (5.31). Block finished 2026 with 112 points off 96 goals and 16 assists this year, just one point shy of Meghenn Jackson '16's school record mark of 113 points. However, she did finish her career with Lycoming records for goals in a game (14), season (96) and career (292) and points in a game (17) and career (349).
 
Block led the conference in goals each of the last two years, helping her earn a pair of First Team All-Landmark Conference accolades after she was a second-team pick in 2024 and an Honorable Mention All-MAC Freedom selection in 2023.

In soccer, the senior finished second in the Landmark Conference in save percentage (.835), allowing 1.05 goals per match and notching five shutouts. She owns school records for career save percentage (.841) and goals against average (0.99) and is second in school history in wins (31) and shutouts (14).
 
Block is the seventh women's lacrosse player and the fifth women's soccer player to earn the award, joining Meghenn Jackson (2016) and Jordan Lazarich (2017) as the dual-sport lacrosse and soccer players to earn the award.
