STOCKTON, Calif. – For the second straight year, Pacific women's water polo standout Dora Alaksza was tabbed an All-America Honorable Mention by the Association of Collegiate Water Polo Coaches.
 
The junior from Budapest, Hungary led the team with 95 goals on the season, which was the second-most in the program's single-season history. She was named to the Golden Coast All-Conference First-Team and GCC All-Tournament Team.
 
Alaksza broke the school record for goals in a game with 11 in a win against Concordia on 13 shots. She scored in goal in all 24 games on the season and registered 18 hat tricks, eight four-goal games and six five-goal outings.
 
In three games at the GCC Tournament, Alaksza netted 11 goals. She helped the team earn a third-place finish.
 
Alaksza, who has another year of eligibility remaining, is up to 243 career goals, which ranks third all-time in Pacific history. She's chasing Molly Smith's program-leading tally of 286 goals from 1997-00 and Jessica Schroeder who is second with 268 goals from 2001-05.
 
Alaksza is the sixth student-athlete in program history to earn All-America honors multiple times. It includes Smith (1998, 2000), Schroeder (2003, 2005), Dara Tawarahara (2010-11), Grace Smith (2014-15) and Mariana Duarte (2017-19, 2022).
 
As a department at Pacific, Alaksza is the seventh Tiger to earn All-America honors in 2024-25. The list includes Alexa Edwards from women's volleyball, and the men's water polo quintet of Jeremie Cote, Reuel D'Souza, Bae Fountain, Matthew Hosmer and Mihailo Vukazic.
