Ortega and Schmidt Named to USILA Team of the Week

LOUISVILLE, Ky. - The United States Intercollegiate Lacrosse Association released its 2026 Division II Men's Lacrosse Team of the Week accolades on Tuesday, March 3.

Tommy Ortega netted a hat trick and added an assist in a 15-3 victory over the visiting No. 5 Maryville Saints. Ortega's four points were a game-high, and so were his three goals.

Westin Schmidt allowed just three goals in a route over No. 5 Maryville to improve to 7-0 as the starting goalkeeper. Tampa defeated the visiting Maryville Saints, 15-3. Schmidt, a graduate student from Centreville, Md., recorded 12 saves on 15 shots faced. He allowed his lowest number of goals against all year against the No. 5 program in the country and had his best save percentage of the season at 80.0. He also added a groundball.
