Tevlin And Fake Selected In The 2023 PLL Draft

SOUTH BEND, Ind. — University of Notre Dame men’s lacrosse standouts Brian Tevlin and Chris Fake had their names called on Tuesday night during the 2023 Premier Lacrosse League draft. Tevlin is headed to the Redwoods and Fake to the Waterdogs.

With the two selections, the Fighting Irish now have had 50 players selected in the history of pro lacrosse drafts. 

Tevlin was the first Notre Dame player off the board, as the Redwoods took him 10th overall in the second round. A 2023 USA Lacrosse Magazine Second Team All-American, Tevlin can do nearly everything on a lacrosse field as a two-way midfielder.. The grad student has 10 goals, three assists, 28 ground balls and 15 caused turnovers. 

Fake has been a lockdown defenseman for the Irish during the 2023 season, consistently matching up with the opposition’s top attackman. The grad student was recently named to the All-ACC Team along with garnering USA Lacrosse Magazine Second Team accolades. Fake has held his primary matchup to a combined four goals this season when he is actually the one defending.

Tevlin, Fake and the Irish open up the NCAA Championships with a first round matchup against Utah at Arlotta Stadium at 2:30 p.m. ET on Saturday, May 13. The game will air on ESPNU. To purchase tickets, click here.
