Veronica McKenna '23 Recruiting Profile

I am a student athlete who is interested in becoming a Physical Education teacher.  A student first, I aim to be a goalkeeper for a collegiate field hockey team.  I am a team player both on the field and in the classroom.  As a goalkeeper, I know that communication is key on the field.  It's important in our sport, but it's also important in life.  I am a well-rounded and successful student who works hard to be a good athlete, student, and person.  My involvement in sports shows my passion for athletics: field hockey, indoor track, softball, and Unified Sports (with my special education peers).  Off the field, I am involved in our school's Feminist Club (which I founded), Future Educators (secretary), and Young Democrats.  I  volunteer at my church,  for the Angelman Syndrome Foundation’s National Walk, and with our town’s youth field hockey and softball programs.  Also, I work at a local farm in my hometown.  I am interested in a college or university that will be a good match academically, athletically, and personally.  I am busy preparing myself for college, and I am excited to begin my college career!
