Six Blue Devils Named to Inside Lacrosse All-America Teams
5/14/2025 9:27:00 AM | Men's Lacrosse
DURHAM, N.C.— The All-America awards continue to roll in for Duke as six Blue Devils garnered Inside Lacrosse All-America honors as announced by the media organization Wednesday morning. Aidan Maguire and Andrew McAdorey headlined the list with first-team honors.
Joining Maguire and McAdorey are Charlie Johnson and Benn Johnston with third-team recognition and Jack Gray and Max Sloat with honorable mention nods. This is the second 2025 All-America award for all six of these Blue Devils after being named to the USA Lacrosse All-America teams last week.
McAdorey and Maguire earn first-team accolades from Inside Lacrosse for the first time in their careers, while the other four pick up their first Inside Lacrosse All-America accolade.
The fourth Blue Devil to win ACC Defensive Player of the Year honors, Maguire has been an anchor for the Duke defense and a spark on offense with six goals and four assists for 10 points. The Hingham, Massachusetts native ranks second in the ACC to the Blue Devils' Johnson with 26 caused turnovers. His 1.44 per game average is the highest among all short-stick defensive midfielders nationally, while the 26 are the most of any Blue Devil defensive midfielder in program history. For his career, the St. Sebastian's product has 51 career caused turnovers to rank 10th on the Duke career chart and has contributed 14 goals and nine assists for 23 points.
McAdorey, capable of playing both midfield and attack at an elite level, is tied for second in scoring for the Blue Devils with 22 goals and 22 assists. In the ACC Championship, McAdorey scored four goals and two assists in two games as Duke came up just short, 9-8, in the title game against Syracuse. The senior captain had at least three points in 10 games in 2025 and registered two hat tricks. Duke's Tewaaraton nominee, McAdorey turned in a memorable performance earlier in the year with the final three goals in the overtime win against Michigan. McAdorey, a starter in every game of his career, ranks 25th in Duke history with 181 points (109g, 72a).
A first-year starter, Johnson has anchored Duke's outstanding defensive unit, leading the way with an ACC-best 32 caused turnovers. He earned USILA Team of the Week recognition after holding North Carolina star attackman Owen Duffy to just a goal and an assist while recording five caused turnovers and four ground balls. Johnson also had five caused turnovers at Jacksonville, becoming the first Duke defenseman to do so since Casey Carroll in 2014. With Johnson leading the charge, the Blue Devil defense has held an opponent scoreless for 10-plus minutes 23 times, including keeping North Carolina off the board for a season-long 31 minutes in the ACC Championship semifinal. An All-ACC selection, Johnson's 32 caused turnovers are tied for second in Duke single-season history.
Leading the charge from the midfield, Johnston finished his sophomore campaign with 28 goals and seven assists for 35 points. He has at least one goal in 16 of his 18 outings this season with his 28 goals surpassing his 21 in 19 games last year. Johnston scored a career-high five goals and six points overall in a 15-14 setback to Princeton and notched the overtime winner at Virginia. A starter in 33 of his 37 games, Johnston has 49 goals and 15 assists for 64 points.
Gray, a stalwart defensive midfielder, has been a mainstay on Duke's elite rope unit throughout his career. He has played in 61 career games and is an anchor to the Blue Devils' stellar defense this season. He has 12 caused turnovers in 2025 and has picked up 20 ground balls, surpassing his total in 17 games last season. A senior captain, Gray helped Duke's defensive unit take another step this season as the Blue Devils held six of their final seven opponents to single digits. In the six-game stretch, Duke allowed foes just over seven goals per game while holding them to 21-percent shooting in that span. For his career, Gray has 30 caused turnovers and 61 ground balls.
The Blue Devils finished the 2025 season with a 12-6 overall record, earning the No. 7 seed in the NCAA Championship before falling to Georgetown in the first round, 16-12.
