ILWomen Nike Lacrosse Media All-Americans are selected by a dozen voters who also vote in the weekly Media Poll. Voters submitted first-, second-, third- and honorable mention teams; those were tallied, with players receiving the highest vote totals sorted into teams. Honorable Mention players consist of players who did not earn enough votes to make one of the three teams but still had a significant number of votes. The Nike Lacrosse All-American list aims to honor players a more traditional-sized roster, avoiding extra numbers unless an unbreakable voting tie dictates it.
