    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE JIMMY LEWIS TO BE HONORED WITH 2014 TEWAARATON LEGENDS AWARD WASHINGTON, January 13, 2014 – The Tewaaraton Foundation has named former Navy lacrosse star and National Lacrosse Hall of Famer James C. "Jimmy" Lewis as the recipient of the fourth annual Tewaaraton Legends Award. "Jimmy Lewis is a natural selection for the fourth Tewaaraton Legends Award," said Jeff Harvey, Chairman of The Tewaaraton Foundation. “He was an outstanding player during a championship era at Navy and upon graduation he went on to serve his country.” Lewis began his illustrious career at Uniondale (N.Y.) High School on Long Island where he was a standout attackman from 1960-62. An All-Nassau County pick for three years, he won the Rutgers Cup and the Outstanding Player Award for Long Island lacrosse in his senior year. In 1966, The Baltimore Sun called Lewis the "greatest living lacrosseman.” Lewis concluded his college career as Navy’s leading scorer and now ranks sixth on Navy's career scoring list with 169 points (78g, 91a). He is one of only four players in program history to score 75 or more goals and dish out 75 or more assists. Lewis led the Midshipmen in scoring and earned first-team All-America honors in each of his three years at Navy (at the time freshman were not permitted to play varsity sports.) He also won the Jack Turnbull Award as the top collegiate attackman in 1964, 1965 and 1966, one of only three players ever to win the award three times. During this stretch, Navy won 22 games in a row (against zero losses) and three straight National Championships at a time when the top team was voted on by the USILA.
