Just a year ago, Jared Bernhardt won the Tewaaraton Award, which is given to the best collegiate lacrosse player in the country. On Tuesday, he made the 53-man roster for the Falcons as a wide receiver.

The 24-year-old played lacrosse for five seasons at Maryland, helping the team to a national championship as a freshman in 2017 and the national runner-up in 2021, with an additional Final Four in 2018.
