Background edit

College career edit

Including the 2009 season, Lowe holds the 5th highest career total in NCAA Division I with 174 assists.[5] Lowe holds numerous Princeton University scoring records (career points, career assists, single-game assists, consecutive games with a point, and points by a freshman). He formerly held the school records for single-season points and single-season assists.[6] Lowe formerly held the Ivy League career assists record.[3] However, since the Ivy League uses conference games only, Ryan Boyle now holds the career assists record although Lowe holds the school record.[7] Lowe is the only Tiger to have scored a point in all of Princeton's games during his career (Boyle scored in all games he played but missed 4 games).[1] His final career goal clinched the 1994 NCAA Division I Men's Lacrosse Championship for the Tigers in overtime.[1] Princeton was 52–8 during Lowe's career, including a 7–2 record in four NCAA tournaments.[8] The 1992 and 1993 teams were undefeated 6–0 outright Ivy League champions,[9][10]

As a freshman, on April 6, 1991, he led number three ranked Princeton to a 17–9 victory over Yale. It was Princeton's first victory over Yale since 1986. Lowe had nine assists, which set a school single-game record.[11] As of 2010, this continues to be a Princeton single-game record.[6] After the tenth game of the season, Lowe continued to lead the nation in assists.[12] He was the leading scorer on Princeton's team that won the 1992 NCAA Division I Men's Lacrosse Championship to win its first NCAA tournament.[13] As a senior in 1994, his 73 assists in league games broke his brother Darren's 1992 Ivy League single season record and earned him Ivy League Player of the Year honors.[14] In the 1994 NCAA Division I Men's Lacrosse Championship game, he scored the game-winning goal in sudden death overtime against Virginia.[15] After Princeton won the face-off,[15] the goal came on the first shot on goal of overtime.[16] When his collegiate eligibility ended, he had the four highest single-season assist totals in school history.[1]

Lowe was the Jack Turnbull Award and Men's Ivy League Player of the Year Award winner for 1994.[17] He was a first team USILA All-American Team selection in 1994 and a second team selection in 1992 and 1993.[18][19][20] He was a four-time All-Ivy League selection and three-time first team All-Ivy League selection (1992, 1993, & 1994)[2][21]
