The University of Hawai'i women's water polo team placed three players on the ACWPC All-America team.
Highlighting the list are three Rainbow Wahine:
Elyse Lemay-Lavoie,
Morgan McDowall, and
Lara Luka.
Lemay-Lavoie was voted to the second team for the second time in her career. She led the 'Bows with 43 goals and earned two Big West Player of the Week awards and First-Team All-Big West honors. She ended her career in the top three in UH history in goals per match with 2.21 over her three seasons.
McDowall earned third-team All-America honors in her first collegiate season, where she posted the single season-best shooting percentage at .667 in school history. After a slow start to her career, McDowall turned it on down the stretch scoring 22 goals in the final six matches of the season. She also led the team in drawn exclusions with 14 and 15 steals. All of this was enough to earn the freshman First-Team All-Big West honors and the Big West Freshman of the Year award.
Luka was named an honorable mention on this year's All-America list for her all-around performance. She ended the season as the point and assist leader for the Rainbow Wahine. She earned the first Big West Player of the Week award of the season and Second Team All-Big West.
Since the program's inception in 1998, UH has had at least one athlete make the list every year.
