2026 USA Lacrosse Awards

Peyton Cantu, a 2027 goalie at Classical Academy High School in Escondido, California, has been named a 2026 USA Lacrosse Academic All-American, a distinction recognizing excellence both in the classroom and on the field. Carrying a 4.2 GPA while anchoring the Caimans' defense, he backed it up in 2026 with 47 caused turnovers, 26 ground balls, and a 65% save rate, commanding the crease and igniting fast breaks with equal parts athleticism and composure. The honor adds to a growing résumé that already includes a 2025 USA Lacrosse All-American selection and three straight First Team All-League nods in the Pacific San Diego league — marking Peyton as both a leader between the pipes and a model student-athlete.
