Alexandra Leslie, a sophomore forward for the University of Rochester, was named a first-team All-American by D3hoops.com and a third-team All-American by DIII News. The Yellowjackets (23-6) made it to the Elite Eight. A native of Lancaster, Pennsylvania, Leslie was the University Athletic Association co-Player of the Year after averaging 15.5 points and 9.5 rebounds. She set a school record by making 87.8 percent of her free throws. She’s the third UR women’s basketball player to be named an All-American by D3hoops.com, following Erika Smith (second team in 2004) and Greece Athena graduate Melissa Alwardt (honorable mention in 2010). Fairport graduate Brian Sortino, a junior for SUNY Oswego, was named a third-team All-American by D3Hoops.com after guiding the Lakers to their first berth in the Sweet 16. He ranked ninth nationally in total points (649) and 43rd in points per game (20.9). He played 36.6 minutes per game, which ranked 17th nationally, and scored a career-high 39 points in an 88-78 overtime win over Delaware Valley College in the opening round of the NCAA Tournament. Sortino also was named first-team All-SUNYAC and first-team All-East Region. His 1,380 points rank 10th in school history.
