2015 Highlights

Personal Statement

I have a huge heart and will always protect my brothers on the field, and I bring a strong work ethic to whatever I do. I also have a huge passion for the sport of lacrosse, and would love to continue to play competitively at a high level. My personality and lifestyle are both well rounded and I fill my free time with many activities that challenge myself both mentally and physically. My current athletic achievements have an underlying story to tell. I love to run hard and mix it up on the field, and I disrupt passes and force turnovers on the defensive and then utilize my burst speed and agility to move the ball quickly and with a purpose. Once I get on offense, I cut hard and place myself in the correct position. I am also proud of being a very coach-able student on the lacrosse field, and if given something to try I will incorporate it into my game to make myself a better player.
