A four-year starter in goal for the Laser men’s lacrosse team, DeMieri broke on to the scene as a freshman when he earned team Rookie of the Year honors after leading the nation in Division III with a .682 save percentage. He went on to become a two-time team Most Valuable Player and earned All-Conference honors in the prestigious Pilgrim League his junior and senior seasons, Second Team in 2007 and First Team in 2008. He also earned All-Region Second Team honors from the ECAC in 2008 while serving as team captain.
DeMieri topped the Pilgrim League in 2008 in goals against average (6.59) and save percentage (.695), which ranked second and eighth in the nation, respectively. He led all NCAA Division III goalies in 2005 with a .682 save percentage, and was eighth nationally in save percentage in 2006 (.648). He completed his career with school records for goals against average in a season (6.59, 2008), and saves in a game (30), season (260) and career (916), the latter of which ranks eighth in NCAA Division III history.
A native of Seaford, N.Y., DeMieri helped the Lasers to a combined record of 36-28 record in his four years under head coach Tim Dunton, making three Pilgrim League semifinal appearances (’05, ’07 and ’08) and three ECAC post-season appearances (first round in ‘05, semifinal in ’06, runner-up in ‘08).
