Ryan Sambogna '19 Recruiting Profile

I have always grown up with a love for sports. Everyday when I was little I would play some sport with my neighborhood friends. I played football, basketball, and lacrosse growing up, later narrowing my search to lacrosse. One of my biggest highlights in football was seventh grade. This was an important time for me and helped me realize hard work pays off. We faced the number 1 team first round of the playoffs and we lost pretty bad. The team regrouped and made it to the playoffs again and unfortunately we got paired up with the number one team again, but his time we were determined and we shocked them. We still lost but the other team knew they were in a football game.

My basketball coach wanted nothing to do unless it was winning. We would enter practice ready to go and leave practice drenched in sweat. We made it to the sweet sixteen every year but could not finish the season through. By the time lacrosse came around I was in better shape then anyone. Lacrosse has always been my passion. My freshman year of high school I was honored to make varsity and letter. we made the playoffs for the first time in years. We went to North Paulding high school and played them so close we went into overtime, and we walked out with a win, making it the first time in a long time advancing to the second round. Unfortunately we lost but this spring we will advance till the third round and we will go to the state championship and we will win state.
