NORTHBOROUGH, Mass. – Three Washington College women's lacrosse players were named 2026 Intercollegiate Women's Lacrosse Coaches Association (IWLCA) All-Metro Region on Friday morning. Senior attacker Mia Salvatierra (Bel Air, Md./Fallston) was named to the first team, while senior attacker Piper Evans (Chestertown, Md./Queen Anne's County) and senior midfielder Anna Wilson (Jarrettsville, Md./Bryn Mawr) earned a spot on the second team. All three are eligible to be named to a national IWLCA All-American team that will be announced later this month.

In 69 career games, all starting assignments, she totaled 168 goals and 104 assists for 272 points to go along with 75 ground balls and 60 draw controls. She finishes her career second in points, third in assists and fifth in points at Washington.
