Conteh named All-PSAC Eastern

Cyrose Conteh of Elizabethtown was one of six Kutztown University women's lacrosse players who were voted All-Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference (PSAC) Eastern Division.

Conteh, a defender, was named to the First Team. Conteh concludes the trio of all-conference picks that moved from the Second Team in 2022 to the First Team in 2023. The senior had a career year for the nationally ranked Golden Bears. In 17 games (all starts), Conteh caused a team-high 23 turnovers, won 57 draw controls and collected 39 ground balls. Conteh also had one goal on the year. Over the course of her 51-game career, Conteh has compiled 130 draw controls (fourth in program history), 47 caused turnovers and 88 ground balls. She spent her first two seasons as an offensive midfielder, registering 26 goals and 30 points, before transitioning to defense under current head coach Kristen Nicholson in 2022.

The six All-PSAC Eastern Division selections are the most for Kutztown since the program regained varsity status in 2008 and second-most all-time to a record eight picks in 1982. Kutztown's four First Team selections were second-most in the conference behind unbeaten and top-ranked West Chester's five. The Golden Bears were also second to West Chester in overall all-conference honorees.
