Johns Hopkins University Athletics

One of the key figures in the highly-successful run the Johns Hopkins men's lacrosse team enjoyed in the mid-1980s, Brian Wood ranks as one of the top attackmen in school history. Pick the measuring stick and Wood will surely be among those at the top of the list. Goals scored, he's there. Points and assists? Ranks among the leaders on both of those lists as well. All-America selections? Impossible to earn more than the four Wood grabbed. NCAA Championships? Well, it is possible to win more than Wood's three, but nobody has done it yet.

A product of St. Mary's High School of Annapolis, Wood helped lead the Blue Jays to the NCAA Championship in 1984, 1985 and 1987 and Hopkins compiled a 47-6 record during his career. He earned First Team All-America honors in each of his last three seasons at Homewood after taking second team honors as a freshman.

Wood was named to the Johns Hopkins All-Time Team at the end of his career, twice earned the team's William K. Morrill Award as JHU's top attackman and was presented the Erlanger Award as the team's top senior in 1987. He was a three-time First Team All-America selection and one of the few four-time All-Americans in school history.

A member of the 1986 United States National Team that won the ILF World Championship, Wood finished his career with 100 goals and 78 assists and is still one of just seven players in school history to amass 100 or more career goals and 75 or more career assists. He also co-holds the school record for most career goals scored in the NCAA Tournament (25).
